Last week of August

Oh gosh I have lagged behind on this blog and am trying to get it all up to date now. Some of this news will be totally old for some of your but anyway, this is my diary of sorts, so want to record it anyway.
Gerard was in Spain until the 29th August. On the 28th I took Robert off to see the doctor as he had been complaining of stomach ache for a few days. I was starting to think it could be a grumbling appendix or something. It was also Richard's birthday, so I left a birthday greeting for him on Skype.
Marcelle came to visit me on the Wednesday that Gerard flew back from Spain. We caught up with our news and she took Steven off to the football field to go and take some photos and action shots. Robert insisted that he should go with them (he was feeling rather left out) and did not like the idea of not having some action shots of his own. Robert was sounding quite sick by this stage. What had been a stomach ache was now all in his throat and chest.
On Thursday 30th, I went to visit Heidi. We then decided to go and find out a little more on the aqua exercises that they were offering at the town pool. These classes always are at night which don't suit either Heidi or myself. So we then went of City Sun to find out more about their little Gym. Unfortunately, they want us to sign contracts for at least 6 months or so. Neither Heidi or I want to do this.
Took Robert off to the doctor again and was told to keep him home from school.
All us South African's met up on the Friday night at the Schwalbenest for supper. Ryan Bland was here and it was great to see him again.
On the 1st September (Saturday) we went off the the company GO which does some fetching and carrying for Bell. It was a reopening of their company on new premises and Gerard had been invited along with his family. They had really gone to a lot of trouble with jumping castles, face painting and go cart riding for the children. Drinks flowed all afternoon and then they braaied an assortment of meats and foods. All very nice indeed. There was a band playing music inside and people could sit at tables and eat. It was a very nice afternoon/evening out.
We had a nice lazy day on Sunday and I made us a Roast lamb and veges.
