What we've been up to ! ! !

The last few weeks have been busy for us. Sorry we have not been keeping you up to date. I usually like to write something Sunday night but last Sunday night Bernhard and Lorraine were still here. They came for one of Roger's roast dinners at 12.30pm and because we enjoy their company so much we went for a walk, had arvo tea, played Zug um Zug then decided to have soup together. Before we knew it, it was 10pm!! They're such great friends and we relax very easily with them.

Last Tuesday after Roger's Choir Practise we caught the train to Zurich. Derek Webster and team were beginning Nooma Nights at one of the local Starbucks. We wanted to go along to see how it worked and participate of course. There were 11 altogether (2 groups - 1 English and 1 German). Our train timetable doesn't necessarily work out, especially after 8pm. We didn't get home until 11.30pm so were rather tired the next day but had too much to do to relax!

Thursday I had 2 ladies come to lunch and we had a wonderful time together. They are sisters from the US. One is living in Basel for 3 years and has been here about 10 months. Her sister was visiting.

Friday was a great morning at Centrepoint. We seem to be getting heaps of new people and especially people from Aust/NZ. We are in the middle of organizing a get together for Aust/NZ for Anzac Day. We will go to an English Pub in Basel, probably for Fish and Chips!!
