After a quick rest in the morning after getting home, I had to get into the city to sort out Jane's immigration status. But alas another wasted journey. The Chamber of Commerce was closed. Why, besides being Friday afternoon? I don't know.
I can speculate, as it is some kind of long weekend again (last on was at the end of January – Australia Day – Remember they didn't even get the right date for that). I think it must be the last week of February holiday weekend, or something. Or maybe it is a "Too long to wait until Easter in 3 weeks" holiday. But then there is ANZAC day soon, and that is a holiday. Actually the only thing I can really see on the calendar is Mothers Day on Sunday. Mothers deserve a holiday, so I guess things will be alright then. Things after my failed trip into town turned into a usual day off for me. I went and with some friends, we went to the beach for a swim, and then – yep – a BBQ. I made prawns and sausages this time, and Deon and Madelyn had hamburgers and lamb chops. (We do like to diversify – can't have steak every time).
My secret plan worked and because I managed to stay out quite late, at Madelyn and Deon's house, everyone was in bed when I got home. I had some peace, and I didn't have to listen to everyone moan about everything, and them telling very tall tales.At least it was business as usual this Friday. Beach and BBQ, what more can anyone ask for?
