Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
Last Sunday was taken up with showhouse visits as it has been for the last month. It is rather exhausting. At least it was a stunning sunny day and it was good to be out and about. At least we had a long lie in bed watching the news and drinking coffees before we headed …
Norm and I had such a lazy day on Saturday. We are both feeling exhausted. Norm has been helping Caitlin paint all week in her flat and he is physically tired, I am mentally tired from stressing about selling our home and finding a new one and all the other stress around moving. I do …
On Monday morning I woke early and when I checked my phone I saw a message from a friend telling me that our street was closed due to chaos from the riots. A fire had been started in the middle of the only street out of our suburb and a barricade put up. I then …

We have been so busy I have not blogged in a week and it was all go, so bear with me if I cover a lot of territory. It was my turn to host bookclub this month and the girls all came to me last Tuesday. My friend Chris has her father in law Pops …
Things have been hectic the last few weeks and I have been a bit slow with blogging. It is ramping up to the end of year craziness! My regular readers may remember the previous blogs about the Hout Bay venue ‘Pescarne’, the 1st visit there was amazing! Really enjoyed the entire experience. The subsequent visits …
