Joe stayed at home to do some preparation as he was scheduled for a marathon radio day - 2 hours in the afternoon on St FM and another 2 hours in the evening accompanying Gareth on SAMS radio. There were many good comments from listeners about both radio shows.
While Joe was talking on the radio, Claudia, Errol, Graeme and I visited with Beatie, Fransie & Dion whom they had befriended while Dion was in Cape Town a few months ago receiving medical treatment after falling down a precipice trying to rescue a lost sheep. Beatie's brother, George and his wife, Florrie joined us. We had a huge meal (11 dishes). During the meal, Claudia noticed a piano accordion lying in a corner. When she asked about it, Beatie told her that it was left by a previous pastor's wife (Carol Coats). Claudia offered to play for her dessert. Graeme then nagged Dion to get out his guitar. Then George just "happened" to have his bag of harmonicas with him. We ended up having a wonderful afternoon of music and singing.

That evening we all went from Beaties' home to a service at the Sandy Bay chapel, where the music playing continued.
