One Day to go - and counting

We are getting there - things are starting to take shape.   Goodies are piling up in the garage ready to be packed into the trailer.   All the final things are being done - Margaret Heathfield has been around to collect her instructions and the keys to get in, Fred will be coming around for his instructions.  I have been to Pappanui for an early birthday tea with Lynn and Anne Brown - thanks girls for the super tea and quiche.   I really appreciate it - sorry the other Anne couldn't be with us.
It is so funny going on our own - not having the Balmers or Browns coming along with us, but we decided this morning that the Browns, Breens, Balmers, Dallas' and Kewleys must start planning now for 2012 otherwise other plans are made and we can't all go at the same time.   This time must be decided when we all get together when I get back - possibly in late April/May next year.
I am busy making a bean soup for supper tomorrow evening in Kokstad - hopefully we shall be staying at the Mount Currie Nature Reserve camping ground.   I am sorry that Don and Anne aren't going to be available to assist with the bean soup - they are Don's beans, but we don't have the special smoked pork from Cullan, have had to resort to a packet of bacon.   However, I shall be putting in lots of black pepper, Anne!
