It’s been another longgg week with Husband playing the role of Marvin (click here if you’re not sure what that means).
We’ve finally had a fair sprinkling of rain though, and the weather’s definitely nippier than usual so I think it’s fair to say that Autumn 2017 has arrived in Cape Town. If you click through to my blog post from this week last year I said the exact same thing, so at least I’m consistent)…
Friday, 17 March 2017: Work farewell at Fat Cactus
Saturday, 18 March 2017: Autumnal Chocolat breakfast, doggy beach walk and local rugby supporting
Sunday, 19 March 2017: Pineapple-y Sunday
Monday, 20 and Tuesday, 21 March 2017: Husband’s parents arrive
Thursday, 23 March 2017: Sea Point event, annual staff meet and Fat Cactus lunch
That’s all, folks. We’ll be helping the parents unpack and also having a few days off work before my next update, so expect happier, more relaxed faces then. 🙂
It’s been a somewhat quiet, lonely week as Husband had to work last weekend and I was head-down preparing our coverage for the recent IAB Digital Summit and Bookmark Awards for the rest of it.
But we always have our happy moments sprinkled in-between…

Wednesday, 15 March 2017: Muffins and meetings
Thursday, 16 March 2017: Experian Mosaic tool launch at the Nasdak
That’s all, folks! We’re both off this weekend so yay for some much needed relaxing and napping and taking it easy…
