Poor man's lunch


So, we’re on holiday again. School went fine this morning, but I think we were all happy when school ended with a final story. I suggested that we go out for a “poor man’s lunch”, being chip rolls at Castle Gardens, to kick off the holidays. Nick had finished his sermon prep early (despite his late start yesterday!) and was in the school yard helping Teddy with the carport construction for our new car, so I had to go and find him there. I had a hard time persuading Caleb that it really was a good idea to go out, as he had just started setting up a game of being a Roman in his home office (this from today’s history bit). I can never understand why more people don’t take advantage of the wonderful garden – it’s shady and breezy, with benches to sit on, and beautifully maintained. You find the occasional office workers luncheoning there, but it’s not really very common. We had our rolls and juices, and the boys finished off with a chocolate each. Thanks are to Caleb for the photo!
