My small baby boy has his drivers license. He is so stoked with this. Now my nightmare start as I could always have the upper hand with NO you may not drive without a license....... I am so pleased for him as I can still remember many many moons ago when I got my drivers of how fantastic that felt.HAD A VERY GOOD DAY TODAY. Alvira, a very good friend came to visit and we had a fantastic girls chat. We laughed at ourselves for being so full of shit at times and even realised how clever and special we are. So strange ow a 3 hours chat with a girlfriend feels like a holiday.
HAD 3 phone calls from Hannes. He is safe and sound in Dubai minus one suitcase..... He is staying in a B+B for the next 12 days as our flat will then only be ready. He phoned again from Emirates mall and was gob smacked at selection of fruit and veg. Mango's from Pakistan, oranges from Israel etc. He also says not expensive at all. He says the selections are mind boggling... Not only food but all other items as well. Now I can't wait to go and visit on the 19th.
I have a possible driver for Hannes's car..... I hold thumbs. I might not have any cars soon. That will be good. Then only the house.
JC my eldest has been through some bad times. The dance studio has paid him and it is totally pathetic. He was paid R1200.00 for the month . He worked 8 hours per day, 5 days per week. My housekeeper earns more. BUT it is not a livable wage....... what do people think.......... Anyway he
had and interview today for a job with an in and export company to work as a junior clerk. Pay much better so he will resign form the dance studio and start his new job on Tuesday.
This is how stoked Dian is with his license.......Nice to have Dian home. He enjoyed the food I made tonight. He is such a easy boy to please and fun to have around. I will miss my boys terribly when I am in Dubai someday (At the rate I am going now it might only be February or March next year.
Hannes report for work tomorrow. Sunday is their first day of the week and Saturday is their religious day of the week.
Tomorrow we have an early start as I ave to have Dian back at school at 09h00 for play practise. He is the backstage manager....... I might let him drive the two of us to school..... Maybe I should take some calming meds before we leave.
I have to wonder how Hannes feels tonight. He is alone in a strange city and country and waiting for his new job to begin. He does not know how or when or what is waiting for him. I somehow think it is more difficult for him as he is not amongst is known people and things.... His first comment was how dusty it is there.... It is in the dessert after all..... I just hope he is happy and it gives him all he wants and deserves.
Rossouw is visiting his girlfriends parents this weekend. Hope he is enjoying it.
There was a protest march in Umdloti this morning. A hippo was shot after it attacked some people and was regarded as dangerous. Well some "bunny huggers" with banners came down the street in protest... I found it funny and amusing as we have hungry kids, bad crime etc. and this hippo who was a bad ass and dangerous get this attention and police escort....
Well just wanted to share Dian and Hannes and JC's news.
Chat later.
I ope Gesi is having a wonderful time in the Midlands with her birthday..

Hi there Friends - What a wonderful experience you are having but sure must be very frustrating. As you say from Big to small. You now have to share your space with each other. But as you know Time Flies. Anyway, thanks for the update on your daily lives in Dubai and we do wish you all the best. Miss your presence around the bay. We are off to Aus 15 Sept. Will send pics (are you still using your e-mail address)? God bless and lots of love Dave and Liz
