Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
After such a beautiful day last Saturday, on Sunday the weather turned again and we woke to rain that morning. Norm and I had planned on having a wander around the garden centre as I had a voucher to spend, but I did not fancy roaming around in the rain so we decided to postpone …
I have had such a brilliant week! I mentioned that my daughter and granddaughter were staying with us so that she could be here to support her sister with her new baby. I have been looking after Amelia Ray when Lily goes to Caitlin's and she and I have had such fun. We have read …
On Saturday Norm and I attended the matinee production of 'Hollywood'. I love the venue Theatre on the Bay and often just book tickets on a whim which is what I did with this show. I knew nothing about the show and when we arrived we were baffled by the fact that there were young …
Every single thing seems to create a debate or an argument these days, including something as innocuous as Mother's Day.

I have had a rather chaotic week. First, I was living like all the single ladies last Monday to Wednesday as Norm was away in Johannesburg. He had booked the doggy day care to take Finn all day so he was occupied all day and exhausted at night. I still had 4 beasties which I …

When we woke last Sunday we saw that there had been a fire in the nearby township during the early hours of Saturday morning. The blaze was reported to Fire Services at 23h56 and six pumps, two water tankers and rescue vehicles were quickly on the scene and brought the blaze under control at approximately …
Last week Norm met our new neighbours who have moved into the property that was previously a guest house. He said they seem nice, the husband is a Frenchman named Pierre and the wife is named Saskia and is Greek (he thinks). We share the wall by our pool in common. This is the same …
I finally feel like I am comfortable being around other humans again, well, as comfortable as my introverted self ever gets. It may be just plague exhaustion (yes that is a real thing) or maybe I am being overly optimistic that the virus is mostly under control, but we are starting to entertain. Last weekend …
