Friday:Uncle Mike & Heather Arrive

Last week Mike was in the UK and I was looked after by Uncle Mike & Heather, who were down to watch Trent in a rugby tournament.

Friday before Mike left we met Uncle Mike & Heather from the airport, when arriving home we said that we lived in a lovely area, and not a lot happens. We spoke too soon, whilst having drinks on the balcony a fight between 2 men started down below on the street ( a drunken fight between friends, so lots of staqggering about), this was followed by a loud crash. Below us there is a cross roads controlled by traffic lights, and a car had turned left at the crossroads and crashed into a stationery car - who was waiting at the lights on the otherside of the road. We watched with wonder as the boy in the car climbed out of his car and swayed to talk to the other car owner - obviously very drunk. The police were on the scene pretty quick for SA. We all felt a little bit sorry for the boy if had to be taken away - but on the other hand he deserved to be arrested as he was drink driving, and it could have easily been a pedestrian crossing the road that he hit.

Charl and Sammy then came round and we all went to Posticinos (an italian restaurant down the road).
