A fun weekend with a very expensive end

There was finally some sunny weather here this weekend so Saturday morning Meeks and Mitch and I walked to the park for a play and some lunch. Here are some pictures.






Then today when we drove into the driveway when we got home from church we noticed there was water flowing out of the overflow pipe which normally means the sewer is blocked. We called the plumbers and basically there is a crack in the pipe where a tree root has grown through the pipe somewhere near where it joins the mains, so about 6m away from the house. Unfortunately that is under our carport and could be 2m down. All in all very expensive to fix. Big job. It's draining now, but is half blocked and will only block up again if it isn't fixed. There are many things I would rather spend thousands on.
