The parents cometh....

Just a quick post to say that my parents and my aunt arrive here in two hours, hoorah!! They will be here for two and a half weeks, the first of which will be spent with me in Victoria, so my posts will be sporadic, perhaps non-existent (what changes?!!). To update you on the past week: the weather has greatly improved and it is now very hot and sunny, Christie and I have got back into our old Subway-followed-by-gelato habits, the swimming pool is still not fixed but the liner is on order, I can't go and see Turin Brakes next week because I'll be in Victoria, and I went on a date yesterday with a very nice man from Langley. It was a strange experience for someone like me who doesn't 'do' dates, but as meetings go, it was good. There will be a second....

Off to finish my work and then go to pick my parents up from the airport - the joy of jamming four people plus luggage in a two-door 1990 Mazda awaits!!
