I have some truly remarkable friends and I've been busy with some of them.
Shannon came visiting from Holland, arriving on Friday night, she stepped straight into a wee adventure, racing off to view the latest Jane Eyre movie with Ruth and I.
I had forgotten how much fun the movies could be ... and it was a most excellent movie.
Shannon and I wandered through Saturday ... starting late, we headed into the city and spent most of the day chatting in the lazy lovely way old friends chat.
She left on Sunday but not before we picked up Peter, the lovely tenor bloke I know, from the Airport bus. We strolled across the big square outside Central Station, here in Antwerpen, and popped into the Zoo Cafe for a small wine-quaffing session.
Shannon left, and Peter came home to stay with Gert and I. He's here for a few days before he jets back to his base in Berlin and so our days are full of conversation and photographs. Jessie and I are updating his professional information photographically and he is being generally entertaining.
In other news, my daughter photographed me today. I needed a publicity shot too. It's quite the bizarre thing to be on the other side of the camera but voila ... hello from me here in the flatlands.
