Meeting up with Marion for dinner

We met at Papaya restaurant in Cammeray. It's always wonderful to see Marion. Her lovely friend Barbara came too. I had the crispy pork stir fry.  Utterly delicious.

Get-togethers with Xenia

It's become a ritual to get together every Friday to put the world to rights.

Jane birthday lunch

We celebrated Janes birthday at a wonderful Greek restaurant in Manly. We all had octopus which was the restaurant's speciality. I felt a little guilty.  After watching "My Octopus Teacher" a few years ago, I promised myself I would never eat octopus again!

 

Frenchy's with Chris and his sister

Chris's sister, Marion, is out from New Zealand. We met her and her friend, Jasmine, for lunch at Frenchy's.  They are both so lovely. Afterwards, I walked to Balmoral where I caught a bus home.

Krissula's 77th birthday

Oh how I love this beautiful group of people. We went to Foy's restaurant above The Flying Bear which is more expensive than we are used to, but the food was delicious.

Balls Head: The perfect place for personal development

 Xenia and I have been meeting at Balls Head each Friday as part of a personal development project we are both working on.  So lovely to do it in nature.  It really is a special place and only a few minutes from home.  We are always paid a visit by the local bush turkeys. I love them so much.

Swim and grilled fish at Balmoral
