Cooking frenzy this afternoon....love my kitchen.

 

Views of the river from the Nedlands Golf Club bar ...the girls and I enjoyed a wine after our 2nd metro pennant game today.

 

This amazing little poinsettia is still looking good...Tash gave it too me before Christmas last year.

 

A big highlight of my day today was hearing from Chris that he and Taryn had just had their loan approved to buy this house in Melbourne, how exciting is that!

 

A still autumn morning at Lake Monger

 

A David Austen rose .

 

Today Pete and I played with Jess and Gerry in the Mixed Foursomes Championship...and we won the best nett and had the second best gross score (81)...so exciting...such a great day.

 

 

Pauline, Mandy, Juliet, Margot and me (Julie took the photo) ...wintry conditions this morning...I hope we are still doing this when we are in our eighties.

 

Scrumptious banana cake and delicious coffee at Tash and Todd's later in the morning.

 

Our new bedroom shutters, love them!

 

I was so happy to have a good score today at golf, my first in ages. I really enjoyed playing with Sue and Jane(who also won a prize).

 

Yes definitely going...to Brisbane in July for this...looking forward to it and also seeing our good friends Michelle and Kevin.

 

Autumn

 

Chopping colourful vegies for dinner

 

A sea of purple at Pavlich's 300th game...electrifying atmosphere.

 

I took this shot whilst waiting for Mandy to pick me up on her way to the beach this morning.

 

Pete and I had a really lovely dinner with Chris, Juliet, Barb and Marguerite this evening. After our guests had left we had a drink and a dance(!) with Jeremy and Tash (who was spending the night at ours). We used the camera self-timer for this shot.

 

At golf today we had our Div 1 pennant photo taken..Glenda, me, Angie, Judith, Jan and sitting is Jenny, Helen, Irene and Gaye.

 

I just love my Ecoya candle that Tash gave me.

 

This evening Jeremy was in the Trial Advocacy Grand Final at the Supreme Court...and he won, which was just great...here he is with the Blackstone society representative, lawyers from Clayton Utz and Justice Hall.

 

My beautiful bowl that I bought in Ravello ....one of my favourite places.

 

Lovely Mother's Day dinner at Varq restaurant... I'm lucky to have such thoughtful children.

 

Cold, rainy, grey morning at the beach this morning but nice to have it to ourselves!

 

I did buy another beautiful bougainvillea at our Charity Day yesterday...one of our male members grows them into standards and donates them every year.

 

The sock raffle is always a popular stall at our Charity Day. Despite the dreadful weather, we all had a fabulous time and  raised $15,000 for Breast Cancer Support and the Cerebral Palsy Assoc.

 

I had a fun afternoon after work setting up this book stall with Jess for our Charity Day tomorrow.

 

Jeremy and his good friend Harriet at the Law Faculty Awards night...where they were both prize winners...so proud of them both.

 

Jessie, Jenny, Paula and Valerie...celebrating at the club tonight...the end of the Northern Suburban Pennant season....Div 1 won, Div 2 came second and Div 3 had a good time! It is the first time I have played in a winning team!

 

The derby...Dockers won, on a rather grey day ...such a crowd!

 

City Beach Surf Lifesaving Club House...the work has started...it will be interesting to follow what they are doing when we come down every Saturday.

 

My pretty bougainvillea...which I bought at our Golf Charity Day a couple of years ago...might have to buy another this year, this week.

 

The winning team today at golf...Sue, Jane, Veronica and myself!
