Cricket and Christmas

Hamish, Mark and I has a great day at the cricket yesterday courtesy of Kelly - who is membership services manager at the WACA. Hamish was lucky enough to be invited to be a Flag Bearer along with his friend Tom. This basically meant that Hamish and Tom got to lead the Australian and South African cricket teams onto the WACA and to hold the respective flags when they went back onto the field after lunch and tea. They both had a great time and got to see all their favourite cricketers and even got a few autographs from team members.

I'll post up some photos when I get hold of these.

Today is the last day of school for the year before the long Christmas break. All the kids are excited and tired and truly in need of a holiday. Only problem is that there seems to be an endless stream of Christmas parties planned for the next couple of days so they will probably get more tired still before getting the rest they need...

I think we are all off to Albany on Monday (or maybe Tuesday) next week and I am not sure when we will return. I spoke to Julian yesterday and I think we will probably pick Jack up on the way through to Albany from Mt Barker or Kojonup - very convenient that both places are right on the Highway reallly.

Judith and Joseph, I will try and ring you before we leave here - there is no landline in the old house so it is a bit difficult from there.

Chrsitmas Cheers to everyone
