We thought we would
make this newsletter the sepia edition!
We are bathed in the
winter palette of oranges, browns and golds… and dust.
These pictures were
taken on a recent trip to the end of the farm for tea, (no, Maluti does not
drink tea, at least not as far as we know…) which incidentally tastes better in
the veld, boiled in a billy can and drunk from a tin cup (especially if it’s
moms!) The little chap in the back pack had an easy ride with Dad – one day he
will want to ride the bike and Dad will wish he was back in the backpack!
I never thought that
waking up with temperatures in the minus for the last month, would see me
wishing for a cold front?!...but with the possibility of snow that accompanies
this, there is always such excitement at the thought of building snowmen and
generally behaving like kids – even if you have grey hair. Charlotte, our tortoise, is still well dug in
to the bank and surviving the winter well.
She hisses grudgingly at me every morning when I check on her (possibly
muttering under her breath about stupid humans disturbing her hibernation…)
We have a special
running from the 22nd July to the 2nd August – stay for 4
and pay for 3 nights or stay for 7 and pay for 5 nights (yes really!) Just
imagine putting your feet up, or walking, reading, connecting with family,
building a snowman (well – maybe!), being fed and cared for…. If it sounds good
give us a call now to book your place – 058-2230274.
At this time of year
one can hardly call our bowling green green but bowling brown doesn’t sound
right. However, by the time November comes the running will be smooth and green
and we have a fun tournament planned. Arrive
on the 24th depart on the 29th November, no whites
necessary, no formality, no special abilities required…just a few days of
relaxing in the country with likeminded bowlers and perhaps your name on the
trophy!
If you are
facebookers, like us on https://www.facebook.com/WyndfordHolidayFarm or
alternatively directly from our website on www.wyndford.co.za to be able to
share any news and specials with your friends and families.
The Wyndford family
have had many comings and goings with the Smith’s meeting up with their kids in
Italy, Jenny and Jaco taking leave and Hannes will be relieved to get out of
the office (cutting fabric lids and tying bows were not in his male sphere
until Wyndford reception). Celvin is
back (!) at work and is already driving so making great progress! (he can even
survive the Wyndford church pews for an hour each week….)
Our monthly draw winner
for this month is the lucky Kevin Engler!
Don’t forget, get on
the phone to take advantage of our wonderful winter woppa!
From all of us on the
Wyndford Team, stay well, warm and we hope to see you soon!
