So after yesterday's 'day at work', you'd think that today I would just, I don't know, take the day off, chill out, catch up with family / friends, maybe have a swim, or just relax about the house. Well yeah, I could do that, or - I could go to the school music camp. Huh?!
You know what, I really debated with myself about this. It went something like this:
Me: Should I go to the camp?
Me2: What for? It's too far to drive
Me: Yeah, but it would look good if I went and gave some support
Me2: Why? Its not part of my job description.
Me: Yeah but it would go a long way to winning some kudos...
Yada yada, you get the point. The long and short of it was, I won, and decided to go. Or maybe it was that I lost, and decided to go. Kind of hard to know who wins in an argument with yourself... I decided though to drag - sorry, bring - Mum along for support. Basically I told her that we would make a proper day of it, and go out to Montville or Maleny or something to have a mosey around the shops, and a nice lunch. And essentially, that's what we did - except that before we did that, we went to the school music camp, arriving just in time for the camp concert - which we watched (I made myself busy by taking photos for the newsletter and so on), and then leaving just as everyone else was doing the pack up. Actually, the concert was very good, and provided a real insight into the various ensembles we run at my school, and their standard.
Anyway, afterwards we hit the highway and made our way into Montville - but enroute discovered a cute little town called Flaxton, where we had a gorgeous lunch - their mango, apple and pumpkin chutney was just divine! And to think, we nearly missed it, but for the fact that I saw this and decided to stop for a picture. Cool, eh?
