Mystery weekend away
Our mystery weekend away
After a long winter working to get the new field services contract negotiated and signed I got a gift of a mystery weekend. Janine booked it and hoped for Queenstown. Rattie told me that I had to leave my phone and laptop behind, so we had no interruptions for work.
