Wednesday

A trip to the coast.
The day started with another trip to the travel agents, this time to see if Sally could get a ticket. She had decided that she would accompany Andy to England for the wedding. This was duly achieved and yes she could get a toilet on the same day for the same price. Both tickets were then put on hold for twenty four hours. A whole lot of secrecy went into this. After buying the tickets we had to takeAndy's lunch out to him as he had forgotten it. He rang us to say thank you and Sally used the opportunity to tell him she would be coming to England as well, he did seem a bit dumbstruck.
We then drove to Mahia to have lunch on the beach and the three of us had a great day out. Lunch on a picnic table overlooking the ocean and a post prandial stroll along a deserted beach.
All too soon we had to head back to pick Andy up from work at five o'clock.
We had arranged to the Andy Sally and Philip out for an evening meal to say thank you and Sally had phone the Wharf restaurant to make a reservation.
We walked to the restaurant and were shown to a table, when booking Sally had been told they were starting a new stone grill range, but when the menus came there was no sign of it.we asked where it was to be told they didn't do stone grilling at all, at which point it transpired that Sally had booked an entirely different restaurant. The Wharf took great delight in telephoning the other restaurant to tell them we would not be turning up. The meal was Ok although they charged us six dollars for some extra bread and none of us felt we would be rushing back there.
