Strange...

Okay..so I got these flowers earlier this year..when I potted them they where this beautiful orangy/peachy/yellow...a few months later and they are budding again and I'm left with boring plain yellow, what happened??? :o(

Swartkopz Performance Car Challenge

This weekend Dane entered a car event at Swartkopz raceway with a bunch of the other Subi guys.  Love to see him in his element and we had a lot of fun.
There are three events..Skid pan, hill climb and track.   Best times for each event are taken and the winner is the best combined time over all... Dane walked away with 1st Prize in his class :o)

Herb Box

Just found these cute little spades with herb names on them..so sweet :o)
Since we got back from Holiday..my garden has been devastated!..spent most of last weekend trying to pull weeds out and get it back to something half decent!  My only triumph was this cute little herb box which has taken nicely.  Definitely in need of another one (or two) as I didn't manage to fit in half as may varieties as I would have liked.

Holiday

Spent the last two weeks out and about..went down to Durbs for some work and a bit of socalising too..and then off to St Lucia (Sobhengu).  Was lovely to be with friends and family again in Durbs and Hillcrest and really nice chill out time up the coast.

Lots of pics to share...

Had to take the doggies on the road trip otherwise they wld hav starved to death for the 2 weeks away! They actually behaved themselves, apart from Chase drooling on my neck and Kim trying to eat my speckled eggs. lol

Doug and Jon where out from the UK..so lots of fun and games for the boys including Marc & Ricci too (go karting pic).  Doug in his most typical position..(see beach pics at st lucia too!)

Went go-karting 3 times!! after the guys found this new place in Pmb..and I made them stand on the podium for giggles, as u can see my hubby not amused at my joke.  Even tho he managed to get on the leader board!


Visited Kay and By's new house!!!! but won't show the house as I'm sure they would like to reveal it on their own blog when its all ready.  Big Congrats to them ♥

Off to the St Lucia...(view from our deck)

The Beach was 26kms of dirt road and another 30kms tar..so quite a drive but with dodgy weather to begin with it actually turned into a lovely day, really nice snorkeling. The guys gave fishing a bash but didn't have much luck with the wrong equipment.


A short walk from the cabin was a vast expanse of pan which made for some pretty pics :o)

We kept ourselves amused with putt-putt, swimming, stalking monkey's and just generally 'chilaxing' (as doug would say)


Gabs and Sienna are such a pleasure to be around and so photogenic..here are a few of my fav's 
(too many to choose from!!)
