Donkin Village redevelopment – Featured Blog

I met up with a few friends for coffee over lunch time at the new coffee shop at the Donkin Village.  I’ve seen the work being done on the Donkin Street Houses but this was the first time I got to see the development from the back.  I really think once the work is done the whole Donkin Village precinct is going to look very nice.  Already it has drawn in a whole host of tenants making it quite a sought after piece of real estate to lease space in and establish your business in the city’s latest trendy spot.

Same spot but looking east

Last weekend I was tiling in the kitchen and at some stage during the afternoon we realised that we just won’t be able to braai and will probably just get something quick to eat.  Drama Princess wanted nothing of that and packed the wood, lit the fire and braai’d the meat.  Today we’ve been busy packing the kitchen stuff back now that the cupboards and tiling is done and she insisted that she will braai again.  And she did.  All I did was clean the grid, prepare the coals for her to put the meat on and check that everything is cooked before she took it off.  She did the rest herself. How proud can one dad be of his 11 year old daughter.

I know this isn’t a typical PE Daily Photo post but I just had to share this.
