....Curtin University

It was a beautiful still morning at golf this morning, all our jacarandas were looking spectacular but this one on the first green was the prettiest.

Would you believe we have a kangaroo on the course? We were so surprised when we saw it on the 11th this morning, none of us have any idea where it came from.

Dear sweet Rusty sitting up so straight and still (hoping for a little nibble!)...Tash and Todd made some excellent pizzas this evening in their new Weber Q, and shared a nice bottle of red with me too.

Another Christmas celebration, this time it's the beach walkers breakfast...Pauline, Marjolijn, Maree, me, Julie, Margot and Juliet (Mandy kindly took the photo). Everyone brought tasty dishes to share and Julie brought the champagne. Happy days.

More Christmas celebrations...this evening I went to Kailis' restaurant with my new work mates for our end of year celebration. It was a very pleasant evening and nice to get to know some of them a little better. West Leederville was packed, took this photo of one of the lovely old buildings, looking especially beautiful with all the lights shining. 

What a fun day I had today. It was our Christmas golf game and party day. Jessie, Jane and I played together, unfortunately Nola couldn't join us as she had to rush into work but...

...she could make it for lunch. The theme this year was "The Movies'" and we dressed up as the ladies from "Hairspray".  I thought Valerie, Jenny, Jan and Irene looked fabulous  as the nuns from "Sister Act".  We were all up dancing for hours after lunch, a very successful Christmas party.

Here are a couple of pretty photos that Pete put up on instagram of the Cocoa Golf Resort in Japan where he is at the moment with Gareth...looks gorgeous.

The stunning bright yellow of the Nuytsia floribunda (known locally as the christmas tree) against the bright blue sky on our golf course today....
