Weekend update

Its been a good weekend. We got back from Clarens on Friday afternoon, and then went through to Sandton for some dinner with K's folks. There has been quite a bit of development since they left SA, so its been quite nice to show them all the new shopping centres, housing complexes etc. We had a good dinner on the Nelson Mandela Square.
Saturday was spent trying to find an aircon for our place. The heat has been unbearable over the past few days, to the point where K and I are battling to sleep properly at night. We found some nice looking LG units - something that I'll have to follow up on this week. We then had a quiet afternoon at home, watching South Africa turn the tables in the third test match against Pakistan (which they won today). Spent the evening at the movies - saw The Queen, which turned out to be better than I expected.
Today, we spent the morning at the Serbian Orthodox Church in Sunninghill for Nicholas Kort's christening (Nicholas is Tsvet and Graham's little guy). The service was all in Serbian, so we didn't quite get what was being said, but I guess the dunking of little Nicholas in a bath of water kind of gave it away. Then rushed back home to collect K's folks and made our way through to my folks for lunch - which consisted of roast lamb, roast potatoes and veg, some fruit salad and ice cream, and some red wine. Very good indeed.
Right now, its watching Carte Blanche, whilst listening to the rain falling on the tin roof outside.
