On Friday evening, Vikki and I took Magnus and Vikki's dad's new friend Tim to Guildford where we met up with our friends Karen and Suchada, who both used to work with Vikki. Despite being a bit late (we'd forgotten just how horrible the M25 can be), we had a very nice meal and chin wag. Magnus spent most of the time looking at an attractive woman at the next table - thankfully her boyfriend didn't seem to mind too much.
Next day, we braved another trip on the M25 to meet up with Jim and Trish and their wee lad, Callum. They were good enough to give us lunch which was very nice, and to let us play with their Wii (it was about the only way to stop our kids complaining that they were bored) so that I could thrash Vikki at Super Mario Karts. Lachlan also built his new Lego car and we conducted some experiments to see how many household objects it could jump (see video below). It was great to catch up but we were only able to stay a couple of hours before we had to set off for Christchurch...
