Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
Today is Freedom Day in South Africa so we get a 3 day weekend. Freedom Day celebrates freedom and commemorates the first post-apartheid elections held on that day in 1994. The elections were the first national elections where everyone of voting age of over 18 from any race group was allowed to vote. Even women 😉.It …
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 …
Norm returned from Scotland last week and Lily headed back to George until she starts her new job at the end of March. It was so nice to have Norm home, I love that I get a decent snore free night's sleep when he is away, but I do miss him. The girls were a …
When I received the notification that La Mouette had implemented a new menu I was of course front of the queue to try it. We had thought that Caitlin and I would be home alone this week with Norm off in Scotland so we booked for the 2 of us to celebrate starting her new …

My daughters have now finished University exams and are now ready to be released onto the work force. Hard to believe I have 3 children with university degrees, I am very proud of them all. I'm also glad they are on holiday as things were a bit stressful during exams. Throw in a menopausal woman …
This week has rattled past, I've been so busy. Norm has his board still here from the UK and we have seen very little of him, he warned me he would be unavailable this week so I planned accordingly. Tuesday I went to see my myosteopath who worked out the pain I've been having in …
The last week has been both incredibly stressful and incredibly amazing. Last Sunday while out walking my husband and our dogs were attacked by one of our neighbour’s dog. Our dogs were on leads, walking on the road. Their dogs were off lead and ran out of their own garden and their big dog picked …
Friday night and I'm sitting mostly in the dark, the room beautifully lit by candlelight everything looking soft. It's pouring rain outside and has been raining sheets of water since this afternoon. The entire road is underwater, so much so that I had to leave my car in the city as I've just had new …
