I haven't seen my uncle and aunt in person for over 18 months, so it was a treat to have them visiting for a couple of days. They have been living in Margate, moved from JHB, since the beginning of 2022.
I booked a surprise trip for us on the Outeniqua Powervan. I've been on it twice before; for my mom's birthday in 2021 and then when my friend Karen visited in October last year. We had perfect weather and enjoyed a beautiful trip with a breakfast picnic stop. I kept the trip a secret until we drove up to the Transport Museum.

A real win was two nights of playing Bananagrams. My uncle and aunt had never played before. They loved it so much that they bought a set to take home to play with their friends. I am the undisputed Bananagrams champion. I had some really winners. Yeee-ha!
I've always loved Scrabble but I think I like Bananagrams more because you are responsible for your own grid, no-one can take your place, speed counts and you don't need to count letter scores.
