Since I got back from Western Australia, Cathy's been staying with me, until she travels to New Zealand for six weeks (mostly to see her ailing mum). Tomorrow we travel down to the International Airport, to see her off. She's been driving me a little crazy, but her presence here is also a blessing. She's helped fix: the washing machine; the back gutters (temporary stuff only); looked at my car; bought me a vice & bench; and been really good while I've felt sick as a dog. I'll be sorry to see her go, though life will be a little less hectic here without her. On Sunday morning Sandra picks up five of my ducks. The rest will go soon....
