It's been a week since i've blogged for the last time and i think there are a few things i could write about...
last thursday i went golfing with steve and on the course we met brian from the rotary club so we went along with him. even though i haven't really golfed before i did pick up some things pretty quickly and the golf course still looks the way it did before i i started on hole one. of course i needed lots of patience and it was a bit frustrating sometimes but it's a very nice sport. on saturday it was matthews birthday and he and some friends of him went to port maquirie which is about 1.5 hours away. they did rock climbing and laser tag there and i think he had a good time.in the evening lisa's parents came for dinner and we ate fish and chips and for the non fishies chicken and chips... matthew got a manta which is some sort of really good body board from his parents and he was really happy. of course we tried it out on the same day.on the next day it was swimming carnival at one mile beach and matthew competed with his mates from the local surf live saving club. there were several events and because the waves were rather big it was quite spectacular. on monday i went to rotary and we met at the memorial center in forster and it was good.every rotary meeting there is a little booklet handed out and there is the program of the present and the past meeting inside. but also other things like a page where there always funny things. last monday there were the best true statements george bush made during his period as president. my favorite:
"most of our imports come from outside the country" hom true indeed!!
on tuesday it was one of many cricket days. cricket is pretty much the dominating sport over here and everybody talks about it. at the moment australia is playing a best of 5 series against new zealand and the score is 2-2 and the last game is on friday the 13th...also i signed up for soccer but practice won't start quite yet...
today i got out of school early as always and steve picked me up
and did some things with me. we bought some soccer boots and went to get my key card at the bank so i can collect my pocket money from rotary. we went to commonwealth bank and the lady just couldn't find my account so we tried at the greater bank which is right beside commonwealth and there it all went very quickly...
i also bought some postcard so the promised ones will be sent very soon. in the evening it's always practice day on wednesday so i went with steve to drop natalie for netball and maddie for soccer. the two of us then went to chip some golf balls....
so that's it for the moment...i will post some photos later on
