My lovely niece and her handsome husband


Red letter day .....I set myself a goal to play 10 games as fast as I could. With every sport it's....practise....practise.....practise. If I only played a game or two a week it would take me ages and ages to get the feel of it. After my tenth game tomorrow I shall back off with a sense of having a fairly good feel for how to handle the bowl. I'm fairly certain Perry would play every day. The man has STAMINA.....I am pooped ! Won $5 today in a lucky draw....lost the game to a very very good threesome. Again, not unhappy with my personal performance. Good day. Perry played very well....he will probably be asked to play pennant next season. Too time consuming tho. I like to veg out at home....trawl the various malls....visit more of the local beauty spots etc.

I don't have a favourite book....but I am an avid reader. The book I have just finished , Charm School written by Nelson De Mille was a book I found hard to put down, often reading until around 1 a.m. It was probably more of a blokie book, but I find I prefer those stories for the most part. The book before that was very blokie and I sort of skipped through it....but it was interesting. The formation and up to now Hells Angels by the guy who started the Oakland Ca chapter. Pretty violent also. I don't recomend it, but I am fascinated by all kinds of lifestyles. And their lifestyle is something else!

Pam and Glen called yesterday....lovely long conversations with both of them. Pam was in a super mood and we shared lots of laughs. We bounce off each other a lot and act like a pair of dingalings. Love that girl. Glen is very busy....busineness is going well. He rides his Harley every chance he gets despite having had several accidents over the past few years. I used to worry a lot about him...not anymore. He is an excellent rider both on and off a track. The worst fear I had was if he had an accident that left him paralyzed. He tells me he isn't a risk taker anymore. Thank God. Accidents still happen tho! Christopher loves the sport also, and is a chip off the old block....at this age...fearless.

Mr and Mrs Chester and Lucy Baker.
