Saturday 10th March - Congratulations Huw and Mel!

Great news yesterday! Huw and mel have had a little baby girl, Emilia! (i think this spelling is right as gaz keeps telling me different ways!). Congratulations, we can't wait to meet her!

Yesterday we had to move out of our cosy cabin in forster...and move over the path to a different cabin. The holiday park is really busy this weekend....full up intact...and our cabin had already been booked so we booked one of the bungalows. When i went to ask if we could move in before 10am the lady told me there had been a problem with the bookings and for some reason, the bungalow i booked on booking.com didn't actually exist...they just hadn't updated their system or something. She said they had had to ring 3 other families and tell them they didn't actually had the accommodation that these people had paid for on booking.com. She did however managed to book us in to the last villa...this is the villa they keep for emergencies...and i guess this was one of those circumstances. i think the woman in charge had given gaz and i propriety because 1. we have been here for nearly 2 weeks now and 2. i had been to the reception on a few occasions so i think she recognised me. Anyway, this villa is a free upgrade from the bungalow. It is very posh! It is a lot bigger than the cabin we have been in...the tv is bigger and we have a sofa now! its very modern and feels a lot cleaner....no dead cockroaches in here! (oh yeh, i found a dead cockroach the other day in the kitchen of our cabin...gross!). 

It was a pain moving all our stuff but within the hour it was all done and we were settled in our new place. the weather has been great these past few days...hot sunshine but minus the humidity you get up north. Gaz has been playing on the computer the last 2 days and it hasn't gone too well. He's still played well for the month but the last 2 days weren't good. I have been on the porch reading the bill bryson book which i have now finished. We had a little stroll today down to see the people fishing...its nice to see families down there teaching their kids how to use the rod.

not much else to report other than still no sign of the perfect house in salamander bay although we do have lots of options. we are just being fussy!

  1. Yes her name is Emilia spelt that way and not Amelia. She's gorgeous. Hope you're enjoying your holiday in Forster and that the perfect house turns up soon!
