Headed back to Elaine and Rodney's place to warm up and get some laundry done. We were able to catch up with their news as well. Rodney's South African Master's Hockey team didn't lose any of their games so that was good. Elaine had to look after the shop and was dreading having to deal with a delivery of stock at the same time as she had to serve last minute shoppers for Womens' Day. She did however manage to get 25 pallets of stock unpacked and stored and they had a bumper day of sales so she was pretty chuffed about that.
We stocked up on supplies again at the local shopping centre and spent time researching for a new cooker. We had photo CDs burnt and usually we burn two discs and post one home to our daughter Kerri and then we can dump the second one.
Our car was so dusty we had to take it to the local BP service station where the locals hand washed it. You drive through an area where it is water blasted by a guy and then it comes out the other side where other guys are waiting to hand wash and hand polish it. It took them 1 and 1/2 hours. We could not have done such a good job as they did as it needed the high pressure wash.
It was hair cutting time so we set ourselves up outside and I cut John's hair and he trimmed mine. The maid watched us fascinated with the whole procedure. John likes it if I wear a shirt with lines on it then he can follow them to get a straight line!!!
We enjoyed our final evening with Elaine and Rodney and look forward to a visit from them in NZ one day.
