Meeting old acquaintances

Good morning, dear Blogger friends. Yesterday I posted about my weekly Parkrun activities. The first time I took Skabby along, I had to stop at Thokosiza Lifestyle Centre, where our old Papa cat was evicted and is now at his forever home with my brother, Phillip.

As I walked towards the shops, I spotted a large white SUV with an FS (Free State) registration plate. The driver, a mature gentleman was sitting in the car. I stopped, greeted him and asked where he was from. He said: Marquard. 

MY WORD! My old hometown.

I took a closer look at his face and said are you Frik Fouche. He answered in the affirmative and said Luette, his wife, was shopping. 

Luette was the matron of the retirement home where my MIL,
 Pam spent her last six years

HAPPY TUESDAY TO YOU ALL
