Only three days to go - J's birthday today

Only three days to go and packing is still to be done. We celebrated J's birthday and she was very happy to get a Razor Powerwing!!!!!! Can't see what all the fuss is about really. Must be getting OLD.

G is staying at work till 9pm wiring up the trailer tonight. He is very tired and grumpy. There are still little things to do but one thing that he got from the camping shop looks interesting. G bought an electric shower. Nice hot water in a bucket and the shower head is fixed somewhere up outside. Electric pump for shower draws water out of the bucket and then you wash your hair. Just need to set up a tarp around you. What will they think of next?

There is one little side story that I have to write down. Last night G came home from last day at work at 7.30pm (very tired). He had dinner and mum and I discussed the day. Mum had made a chocolate cake for J's birthday. After G ate dinner he asked if there was any dessert. I told him there was some leftover cake from work (they had given it to me for my birthday in August!) next to the stove. G looked next to the stove and saw the birthday cake. He took one huge piece out of it and started to eat. Mum gave a cry and G almost choked. G said that he couldn't believe he didn't think, as we had just discussed making the birthday cake. He obviously did not look hard enough for the left over cake! Anyway, we got a piece of leftover cake and cut it to size. It filled the whole and we also happened to have some icing left over. Nobody noticed the difference today.

PS We cut G the piece that was inserted to fill the hole.

  2. He actually missed out. Mum said that it was the best chocolate cake she has ever made. Thanks for the call tonight. Breaks it up when you have an adult to talk to. Not saying G isn't an adult it is just that he is at work too! Hope M is home soon.
