As if the pirate party yesterday wasn't enough excitement for one weekend, we also squeezed in a whirlwind visit to Bannockburn last night to see Faye before she leaves for her overseas trip next week. Where we managed to get hardly any sleep courtesy of two over-excited, sugar-filled pirates who shall not be named, pick three kilos of figs from Faye's garden before the birds gorged themselves.....
and bought a much-needed second car at nearby Alexandra.
By the time we got back to Taieri Mouth at tea time, our exhausted, cranky children refused to get out of the new car.
Resulting in the reluctant removal of aforementioned children. Which in turn resulted in one monumental paddy.
