DROS RBY -I WAS SO LUCKY

last night four of us Roatary ladies went for a drink at the Dros in Richards Bay. We met a 17h00.
We had such a wonderful time and stayed until after 20h00. Coming home I thought I was really going to miss all the social and chat. We saw other Roatarians there as well.
I felt good coming home as I did not cry or fall to pieces with the goodbye's
We had laughs about building houses, our kids and all silly girl stuff. Hannes and I had a good evening and it felt as if pressure had lifted. (No reason as all the pressures are still there)
However, this morning one of the ladies phoned to say how lucky we were.
The Dros was held up with AK47's (machine guns for those who do not understand) all the patrons and staff were robbed of everything.
This all happened shortly after we left. I am sick to my stomach.... It is such a public place. Not hidden or dark or seedy. It is at The Richards bay waterfront.
I feel so sorry for all those who were in this ordeal as I can only think of how it might have felt.
So my only big positive today is I was not there at the time.
I am on y way to Durban to fetch Dian after his overseas trip. Really looking forward to seeing this boy of mine .I have missed him a lot.
Hannes only has 3 more days in Richards Bay. This is totally unreal.....
Chat later

Holy crappola Mom! Halleluyah that you must've drunk the place dry and hence left early is all I can say. That's shocking stuff. I hope you get some juicy goss from that youngest Bro of mine... but then again we all know that Choir Tour is FULL of juicy goss don't we just??
Hang in there Mom! 3 more days for Dad is it? Oooooohhh... how exciting/nerve-wracking/ethralling/terrifying/fantastical all rolled into one!
Keep up your awesome blog... I love reading all your thoughts... no holds barred and straight from your very HUGE heart :-X
