Relentless Rain

DEAR SPOOK, well darling, it's raining. No surprises there. I have just dropped the children off at school with Amy and Grieg as their guardians of the day. Finn seems to be taking it all in his stride. The hockey went well last night, but it clashes with rugby training and he is very sure that it is rugby he wants, so that's good. Grieg has said he will go to rugby with Finn, which will make his parents very happy.
Frazer is picking me up at 10.15am to go and mark the course for Relentless. We are meeting James and Gavin Shirley up at the forest. It will be nice to see them, especially as Gavin spent 6 months working in Wanaka's Dough Bin - Finn's favourite pie shop. Frazer expects us to be out on the job until around 4pm so I am having coffee before I go as I know there will never be a Mary 'Mcleod' of Hawea in my working life again, bringing me coffee at crucial times. Just another of the things to adjust to.
I called in to your old work yesterday to see if I could hire a hubby. George and Henry were there. Henry is really looking forward to you coming home and getting a good blether. Jamie came over after his work and helped me to get our bed back up the stairs. I suspect you built that bed in our room and never intended it to leave. There was no way I was ever going to get it up the stairs without help. As Jamie wears your old clothes and smells quite like you used to, it was a good compromise in the hire a hubby stakes.
I need to go and look out some water proofs now..........heavy duty.
Maybe I might have a phone today, but let's not assume.
