Trying to get around all our friends and family was a big task and for those of you who we missed we are sorry. The good news is that we aren't away for ever and if you have access to this blog it may will feel like you are with us.
We had meals with lots of friends (kept the grocery bill down!!) as well as the odd function/farewell organised in our honour.
My Friday morning volunteering project at the Southland Community Nursery made a special effort and sent us off with lots of little goodies and momentos so as not to forget them. A link to their website gives further info. http://www.southlandcommunitynursery.org.nz/news-and-events/
My Monday night choir had an early finish and we all went to Waxy's for a farewell drink.
Stephen's retirement party from the AA was a big event with drinks, nibbles and speeches.
For other groups and friends we are involved with it was a much quieter goodbye, often with a cuppa and a promise to keep in touch.
