Weekend fiasco

Saturday was a long drive. The morning was filled with paying bills and shopping, followed by picking up a friend in Oranjezicht and driving to Stellenbosch for checking if some photos can be ordered, just to discover that due to the sheer volume, only half of them are there. Next weekend we will drive there again, and the weekend after that as well to pick up the ordered photos.

There were the usual two trips to the hospital (mostly snoozing there due to lack of sleep), followed by a LAN Session (copying stuff and network games) in Bergvliet, followed by a drive back at night with only one light.

Sunday was mostly sleeping and waiting for the rain to finish before going shopping to get breakfast at 3PM. Lunch followed after 6PM.

As I was about to take my friend back home at 10PM, I got a phonecall from the mother of another friend who asked me to phone him, since he got tossed out of the place where he was staying. His wife caused a lot of nonsense and nobody knew where she was, the landlord has changed the locks, and my friend needed a lift to a place where he could stay for the night. A crazy drive through Tableview followed that trip, just to get back to known roads. In the end I ended up back home at 11:55PM and having to get up after 7AM for work. So much for a nice quiet and relaxing evening...
