Yesterday (Wednesday) was a torturous 2hr journey to Durban to have Karen's "Biometrics" taken for her Spousal Visa... and 2hrs back. Karen had already organized this two weeks earlier, before we had left.
Back at "Beachway" at around midday we went to the beach. As a result of all the heavy inland rain, the surf and for about 3 miles out, was murky, dirty water as the river's emptied right down the Natal South Coast.
Nonetheless we spent the rest of the day swimming and just catching up with Vince and Jodi. In the evening Vince braaied fresh fish, which was also delicious. Uncountable bottles of beer and an equal amount of wine, managed to quench our thirst by midnight.
Thursday, All weather Apps suggested cloudy conditions, rain and storms by 15:00, then 17:00 and eventually having run out of options, they arrived at 22:00.
We did take in the obligatory early morning run, just after sunrise, which always culminates in a swim at Glenmore Beach. Within 24 hours the sea had cleared to a lighter shade of blue, and seeing that the Weather predictions were indeed wrong, made our journey to the beach for more sun, beer and laughter.
A few drops finally arrived after having cooked a stunning dinner.
The 'Doubting Thomas' now called Vince, sneered at my little 7 Bricket 'Cobb' oven! Roasted a delicious Whole Bird with 7 brickets in 100 minutes as promised. Equally crispy and delicious to any other roasted fowl anywhere!
For many years, I have always preached 'Balance', although burning both ends all the time, its about balance. So, Tuesday night was Beef Fillet, Wednesday night 'Red Roman' and Thursday night Chicken (apparently also listed as a Vegetable) Friday night we will lend that 'balance' to our menu and routine.
IT'S FRIDAY NIGHT ON THE SOUTH COAST, SO IT WILL BE, THE LEGENDARY "PISTOL'S SALOON"!!!🍻🍺🍺🍷🍷🍷
Love, Peace and Light,
