Bon Voyage Maree

After the rugby I spent the day yesterday helping Sonja move to her new flat. Bronwyn stayed home and did some online Christmas shopping, as well as her inevitable dose of work to prepare for the school week ahead. She's continuing to need to do a substantial amount of school work at home each evening and a fair proportion of the weekend, and is feeling the pressure.

Last night however we headed out to the Puzzle Bar on Fulham Palace Road. The event was a farewell for one of Duncan's old school classmates, Maree. We didn't even know she was in London until another school classmate Steve forwarded on invite to her farewell party. Maree has been here for a while and is now heading back to New Zealand in a week or so. It was great to see her again. Also at the party were a number of other people who'd gone to my school. I'd seen Steve most recently, about 4 years ago, and some of the others I hadn't seen for 8 years or more. It was good to make some re-connections. The prize goes to Carolyn for impecible timing, as she arrived in London just 3 days ago... It was nice to see them all!
