Sunday lunch

The end of an awesome lunch.

We had a fantastic Easter Sunday lunch. Debbie, Jonathan, Mark, Ted, Rose, Adrian, Wendy, Mike, David, James and the Jones family all sat down to a fantastic lunch or roast chicken, lamb and salads. The puddings were excellent, with Wendy making her 'yoghurt' pudding. Ummm!

Debbie, Jonathan and Mark leave for Australia on Tuesday after finaly wishing what I am sure was a sad farewell to Zimbabwe. Good luck you guys. I hope everything works out for you in Oz. Life is an adventure!

Th big Easter egg hunt on Sunday morning.

Frances, Emma-Leigh and Kate-Lyn at Hayley and Charles' house. Post the Easter egg hunt.

On Saturday we went to Charles and Hayley's house for tea. Inge was there as well having flown out for a holiday a couple of days before. Hayley organised an Easter egg hunt for all the kids. They had great fun finding all the eggs. Emma took great delight in finding some after everyone else had finished looking.

I dropped Laurie off at Mass on the way home. I took the twins home to get bathed and down to bed. Managed to watch the second half of the Sharks - Cats game which the Sharks won quite convincingly.

Energy and leave

I am convinced that there is a direct relationship between one's energy levels and the number of days until you take leave.

This Thursday can't come fast enough. We have Mike, Wendy and the boys coming up for the easter weekend and then on Tuesday we head off to Ballito for 6 days. And then only going back to work on 2 May. Hopefully while I am on leave the energy levels should replenish themselves.

The Kate-Lyn, Dominic and Emma-Leigh are all recovering from flu. All seem to be on the mend, but Laurie seems to be coming down with it now. Lots of Corenza C and other cocktails of drugs will hopefully stop it in its tracks.

Tivo for South Africa

I was very excited to find this site

This is an alternative to the DSTV PVR. You can get a Tivo setup for about R2200 versus a PVR which are about R3000. The Tivo interface looks much better as well. The one advantage of the PVR is that you can record 2 channels at once.

With the Tivo you can activate something call "Season Pass" which allows you to automatically record all the episodes of a particular series.



You can also select your favourite director or actor and tell the Tivo to record all movies with that particular actor or director.

This looks very cool. Well worth investigating. There is even a company in SA that is re-selling the hacked Tivo's, so you do not even have to set it up yourself.
