Evan's 49th and Ken's belated 45th Birthday

Sunday 23 February

Dinner at Hurstville RSL for Evan's Birthday.

Janet and I picked Fiona up around 5.30pm and because dinner wasn't until 7-7.30pm, we stopped in at U. David's for afternoon tea and to kill time.

Fiona was all dressed up and excited to be out, think she had been really looking forward to coming out. She was all giggles in the car.

Lily and Mark were overseas in Pattaya, going to HK, and the kids were attending Mar Mar's 81st birthday dinner at Bankstown RSL, Star Buffet.

When we got to the RSL, we had to wait for a table, even though they had reserved a table. It seemed to be very busy, the car park was full, but after dropping Fiona, Janet and Bindy off and doing a loop of the streets, I returned to the car park and was lucky enough to get a spot.

Fiona was starving, because as soon as the food came out she was gulping her soup down and eating her rice like she hadn't been fed at all.  Lucky it was Evan doleing out her rice in small portions and not U. David.

After dinner we went back to their place for cake and tea, before dropping Fiona off back home around 10.30pm

 

We gave Evan $20 in red packet and Fee gave a $30 bunnings voucher, and to Ken we gave $50 in red packet.

 

Port Macquarie 2014

On Sat 1 Feb, we checked out of Beach House and made our way down to Port Macquarie. Stopped at Grafton for lunch at Maccas. Then stopped at Urunga where Janet bought some shucked oysters and again at the Oystern Barn, just before the resort. Checked in at 4pm to the Village Resort.  They gave us 2 bungalows, 1 overlooking the lagoon and the other separated by the car ports. Bungalow 20 and 21.

In this week, I just relaxed, played tennis, paddled in the lagoon, attended an aqua aerobics class with Kaylene, after being coerced by our neighbour in bungalow 22 (Debbie). The only time I shopped was when we went to Coles Mix and to Spotlight, otherwise, it was just lazy days, doing jigsaws, eating and sunning myself.

Lily, Janet, A. Cath and Kaylene would go shopping every day. Lincraft, Settlement City, Spotlight.

We celebrated Kaylene's birthday again on Mon 3 Feb, with a sushi cake, and a dinner of panko prawns and chicken satay. Yum Yum. No cake, only dessert. Unfortunately, no mud crab available so the next best things were prawns.
