Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world

Considering that this was a 4 day week it has felt like the longest week all year! On Wednesday evening it was just me and Norm at home so we decided to go to Pescarne for dinner as we had seen on their Facebook page that there was a new owner. We thought the changes they made to the …
