Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
Self constraint has never been one of my skills. Hence my current weight. I've always been a 'You Only Live Once' self-indulgent only child. This is compounded from growing up in the free spirited '70s. You may only live once but you might not live that long of course if you don't look after yourself. …
I'm still not sure if my attitude changed or what happened, but this was the calmest, most easy going Christmas I have ever hosted. It was also one of my best, I was so well prepared and I'm the sort who stresses about things being out of control, so maybe that was what lay as …
As always the full moon cycle triggers chaos. I remember from when I worked in the hospital as a radiographer that a full moon brings out the crazies, that is why you call them "lunatics". The pull of the moon on the body also results in an increase in birth rates. Basically the hospital would …
This week flew by so quickly I am surprised it didn't give me whiplash. Norm was finally back from his trip but still had his board members to entertain so was pretty scarce around the house. He did pop home in time to walk the dogs so that was one less task to manage! The …
It has been rather exceptionally lucky to end up with 2 4 day weekends in one month. Even the work week flew by this week. Last Saturday we decided to nip out for dinner to Papino's in Hout Bay. The Rugby World Cup has kicked off and SA were playing, so we tried to time it before …

My other daughter Lily works late so I decided to organize my own itinerary of happiness, starting with booking …
Last week was one of those weeks where you feel like your life is one monotonous rotation of work, home, bed, and then the cycle starting over again the next day. But this week was packed full of all manner of random diverse activity. Work was again hectic with me going off at 7am and …
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 …
There is an old joke that says the reason they call Cape Town ‘The Mother City’ is because it takes 9 months for anything to happen. This is generally true except this week has proven that some things can take off like wildfire. Especially, well, a wildfire. I woke in the middle of the night …
I have been very spoiled over the last few weeks, that’s an additional benefit of having friends from overseas visiting. I have a lot of things to cover so grab a cuppa tea and settle in. Last Tuesday night we went to Quinton’s at Oakhurst Barn for dinner with our friends who were over from …
