Day 48 - Monday 22 Feb

I think Nicola is at her wits end trying to keep us occupied, so she is delighted at the prospect of the day out organised by our new friends John and Marlene.

John came to pick us up and brought us back to his house. This is an impressive bungalow, probably the most impressive home we’ve been in here. Perfect for a growing family, and a nice wee pension provider for those of more advanced years.

After a wee drop of tea and incessant chat from the ladies, we went on our travels,

Our journey took us to Flinders, Arthurs Seat and a nice, but much Anglicized pub called the Pig ‘n Whistle. This is wine growing country, and we’d been here with Nicola and Trevor in the first week of our holiday.

A nice lunch here, set us up for the afternoon leg, where we would find small coastal places of interest. Even though it was fairly late summer, a lot of places were closed. Finding a decent coffee shop was proving to be difficult. Still, John drove on regardless, taking us to places that had caught his attention in previous times.

We arrived back at HQ about seven,

Time to kick off the shoes and relax, a wee drink and yes, some cricket.
