After a quiet week, with work for us and a lazy week for dad and mum, we had Friday to look forward to, which was shopping, nothing new here for food and beer, then mum and I had to get to ready for a girls meet. We were meeting Lesley, Louise, Sally, Karen and Yvonne down in Main Street, for a few classes of wine and a good gossip.
At about 8.30 Dad and Jason met us, and after saying our goodbyes we had a wander up Main Street and a few beers, wines and culminating in a Liquorice Allsorts Margarita cocktail in a large fish bowl which mum, dad and I shared,
The taxi home got stopped by the booze and drugs bus which is ALWAYS out and about and not worth taking the risk for. This night they were on the Nepean Highway and were patrolling all 6 lanes (3 either side). All lanes were shut and every driver breathalysed, dad was amazed as he was under the impression that in the UK this would have been a violation of Human Rights, well not here.
We tried not to be too drunk or late as we were out the following day, but that didn’t happen, it was a good night and mum and dad commented on how amazed they were that you could have a nice evening drink without being deafened due to the music, most bars are very wine bar’ish with large sofa’s, lots of wine on offer and no loud music, it seems you have to go to a night club for that. It is all very sophisticated really, glad we didn’t stay with the girls as they did go to a nightclub and didn’t get in until about 4 ish, not sure mum could have coped with that.

On the Saturday we went to Point Nepean, it was a lovely hot day, but a little breezy, Point Nepean is stunning, it was closed to the public for over 100 years, bit is now a National Park and home to Fort Nepean, established in 1882, and the historic Quarantine Station first established in 1852.
Sunday we were at Peppa and Owen’s for a BBQ
