Halloween

As it was on a Friday this year, i bought more treats to give away. Quite difficult to buy decent wrapped lollies without going over the top so I opted for small packets of chips, getting away from sugar but of course more salt, cant win really. I also bought small chocolates so each child got a pkt of chips and a choc. We had many less than last year and they were all little kids except one. I didn't go to the door warren did and he said it was a girl on her own, no parent in sight and he was a bit worried about her, he said she looked about 14 or so.

The ones I saw were dressed up well and loved telling us what they were, they were so cute, most of them I know were from around the area, occasionally we see them in the street but not often. That's why I like the idea of Halloween.

Some grumble about its bad for kids with all the sweets they get given but once a year doesnt hurt anyone.

Our share of Vitamin D

After yesterday's rain, today was nice and bright and sunny. Warren suggested a drive and we went to the beach. We couldn't find the cafe that I wanted to take him to, I had been there a few weeks ago with some girlfriends but we found a fish and chips shop that we had been to years ago. The shop hadn't changed much but now it is in the middle of high rise apartments looking out over the beach.

We took our wrapped lunch and sat on the steps in the sunshine, the bird got the rest of the chops that we didn't want.

Here is our jeep that we just had to take for a run, we realized that we didn't even have a blanket or anything to sit on so that was rectified once we got home.
