The last couple of weeks have been pretty quiet as we attempt to get the garden and drains sorted before Hermann returns to paid employment. We spent the weekend in Greytown raiding the gardens of Tante Inge, Tante Edith and Hermann's parents. We came back with a car load of botanical booty! Hopefully the garden will be looking lovely by the end of the summer. Right now it looks like its got plant acne - it'll be a bit spotty until the plants fill out a bit!
It was the Froonchen's birthday today - she's now 3 months old. Unbelievably she's managed to survive 3 months with us as parents relatively unscathed. We celebrated by attempting to take passport photos. We're off to Scotland for Hogmany but its debateable whether the Froonchen will make it - let's hope the British Consulate in Pretoria doesn't run on Africa Time.
As you will see, 2 weeks of smiling practise appears to have paid off!
