hi girls
so who won?? the Diamonds??
at last we have some nice weather here..30 today.. have been enjoying it while I can... a couple more days and then it changes again.
the gardens in Melb look so beautiful in Spring
My youngest osn (the yuppie) has a corporate box at Perth Arena for the Wildcats' home games. We keep saying we must go up there one night and watch a game with him. I've never watched basketball but aparently it is very exciting and you don't have to understand it to enjoy it - you just order snacks and champagne and sit there chanting "de-fence! de-fence". 
Go she ele you will enjoy it.
Deb yes the Diamonds won clean sweep 3 out of 3 against the silver ferns
aint bad. 
Now for the Commonwealth Games.
Yes, go Penny.. We've been to the footy in a corp. box... Very pleasant indeed ! You'd enjoy it
3 out of 3 sounds pretty good to me Lyn... Reminds me of the Tigers 
It's been a while but never let it be said the contributors to this long-standing thread are a spent force 
Here in the wonderful west we are in the middle of the Fremantle Festival and enjoying some wonderful weather for it too!
Some amazing installations ........ some not so amazing ...... but catering for all tastes.
I think summer has actually arrived! I certainly know that it is exam time cos the jacarandas in our garden are displaying the jacaranda blues which are always a reminder of the exams.
Eye surgery complete and the difference is amazing ...... colours are so much brighter too.
Some will *sigh* when I mention the tennis season is well on the way ..... but it is
Guess we should get through the Festive Season beforehand though.
Hope all are well.
Well that was another Melbourne Cup Day done and dusted. Used to enjoy the sweeps for a laugh here ...... the three hour time difference just doesn't work for us here - it seems strange watching it around midday ...... so we didn't
35 here today and hotter tomorrow .... summer has finally arrived with a bang. I can hear the beach calling ...... cool clear water ...... but a few nobbies around so will give it a day or two before I venture in.
Have been wandering around the traps having a read in airconditioned comfort 
The market in new scroll wheels could be a money maker ........ there seem to be so many scroll wheels which obviously don't work
So much sadness in the world ...... have almost given up reading the news ......... ignorance is definitely NOT bliss though.
Take care friends
