Despite living in the shadow of death from cancer, I still enjoyed my Easter. The highlight was of course the Saturday morning I spent with Anne but subsequent events have been good too.
On Sunday morning Jenny organized a family brunch. Present were Jenny, myself, Joe, Katie, Timmy and his wife Rachel. Timmy is strictly not a relative but I helped bring him up and have always thought highly of him. He is now a very pleasant young man. His young wife Rachel is gorgeous and she has recently presented him with a baby boy -- Liam. Photo below.
Much of the conversation centred about Timmy's planned trip to the UK. He is optimistic that all the COVID restrictions will have eased by the time he gets there. If a change in the regulations "traps" him there he is not concerned. He has a British passport so can work there. He is looking forward to seeing Paul and his other relatives
Jenny put on a Canadian breakfast with pancakes, good bacon and real Maple syrup
Then that afternoon Jenny came over to my place and we went out for dinner. We went to the "Bollywood" which is now called "Spice Avenue". It still has first class Indian food. We had Tandoori chicken, samosas etc. We were the only customers there so got good service
Then this morning (Monday) Joe came over for breakfast and we went to our old brekky haunt -- the Yeronga pie shop. I had an excellent lamb and Rosemary pie. We mostly talked about American politics, as usual. The trial of Derek Chauvin was much discussed. That he will get a fair trial seems very doubtful.
And tonight Jenny is making me -- at my request -- savoury mince on toast for dinner. She does good savoury mince. On Mondays we often go to Nandos but they close early today.
