Pick up new car

As the weather has now turned a little bit unsettled. The temperatures have dropped a couple of degrees and we are getting some rain, usually overight. When it is not raining the sun is usually out and the days are very pleasant. Kerry states she is having trouble hanging the washing out (we don't have a vast array of clothing as most of it is bobbing up and down on the sea) and she is doing the washing daily, we decide to get a tumble dryer.

First of all though we need to pick up the car. We have had the windows tinted and some additional work done to ensure the paint work stay ok and the leather doesn't get stained. True to their word the garage has the car ready for us. The finance went through ok and we sign the insurance forms and we are ready to go. We decide to use the hire car for getting the tumble dryer and other things we need. We get the dryer, a small combi oven/grill and proper grilling thing, get them home and installed. We put the dryer in the garage as there is no room in the laundry room. The only thing now is (as we have just found out) we cannot use the vacuum cleaner and the dryer at the same time as they use the same power socket. Yes get this, we thought stupid owner has left a vacuum hos in the cupboard but no cleaner. We have found out that there are 2 outlets for want of a better word and you connect the hose into that and hey presto it all powers up and that is the vacuum. No lugging the appliance around the house, just the hose.

Once that was all done we took the girls to the park to have a play.

On Sunday we had to drop the hire car off, so Kerry drove the new car and followed me to the airport and we got rid of the hire car. The rest of the day was spent at a couple of parks playing.
