On the way to Tasha's this morning....low cloud covered the CBD....the tallest building is the QV1 where Jeremy works, he is on the second top floor so he must have had an interesting view.


Watching the diggers...he was so excited to see them all at this development not far from his home.

Today was the final day of our Club Championships. I played Gaye Hayes in the finals of the Best Nett in Divison 1 in the morning. I won 2/1. In the afternoon I went out with Janine, Nola and Jane to watch Alison and Mardi battle it out for the final 18 of 36 holes to be the club champion. It was freezing cold and very windy.


Spectators on the 13th...Jenny, Lorenz and Lyn...at least it had stopped raining!


Our top eight qualifiers after two rounds of stroke. Mardi, Jane, Alison, Janine, Majella, Nola and Lee.  Lauren couldn't attend the presentations.


Jonnine (Captain), me and Margaret with our prizes...great afternoon of celebrations.

Everlastings are coming up all over the golf course....so pretty. Today I won my club championships division semifinal game against Judith (gave her 1 shot) after yesterday winning my quarter final against Jonnine (had to give her 2 shots). On Thursday I play Gaye Hayes and I have to give her 5 shots, so it might be a tough game but looking forward to it.
