Weekend to New Norfolk

Dinner at the Crazy Duck in George Town

We all had a little bit of $$$ for Christmas, so it was decided that we should go out for dinner.  We chose the Crazy Duck in George Town and we weren't disappointed.

Breakfast with our crew

December went way too quickly, and we were so busy, so I'm trying to catch up with some photos on my blog.

Richard and I go to Cafe St L's most Friday mornings, it's our little treat.  So we thought it would be nice to take our staff that work in the Parcel Centre at St Leonards for a bit of breakfast in early December, before the Christmas rush started.  We all had a lovely breakfast and lots of laughs before work.  It was a nice way to start the day.


Table all decorated for Christmas.


Laughing and enjoying breakfast.


All enjoying breakfast.


More laughs and telling stories.


Our awesome crew.









Breakfast catch up at Samuel Pepys

We had a lovely catch up with Sue and Andy, Crystal and Gerrard at Samuel Pepys this morning.  It was foggy when we left home, and back home...
