Grafton (October 2015)

From here we head further south to Grafton. Another Ochre Health clinic awaits us.  We have been keen to see this super-clinic for years and we're not disappointed. Again the practice manager is so kind to lead us through the newly build surgery. It does look good.  It makes so much sense to have a pharmacist, pathology and other professionals like nutritionists, podiatrists, physiotherapist, speech pathologists and so on, all under one roof. Really great set up.

We have set up camp at the Grafton Grey Hound racecourse. Grafton is covered in wonderfully bright almost fluorescent lilac, from all the flowering Jacaranda trees.

Apart from visiting the clinic, we also have one very important job to do. Jaap's birthday is coming up, so it is his turn to shop for presents. From memory we know where to find Spotlight and Lincraft. This is important because slowly we are getting ready for our New Years trip to the Netherlands, and we need to knit. It will be cold there and scarves and beanies are a bare minimum. Before we know it one big knitting frenzy is gripping us in a strong hold. Peter, Laura, Jolmer and myself are getting a number of projects on our needles. It is a lot of fun.
The knitting madness sees us returning to both stores about four times in just as many days.
