Hello everyone - well it is Sunday night 7.30 pm here so it will actually be Sunday where some of you are and I hope it is a nic day.
We have had lovely weather for over a week now - the dreadful summer humidity has gone and the days are perfect. Unfortunately ther is a force 4 cyclone aproaching the north of Queensland ( do not worry that make it almost 1000 mile from me) and is due to cross land this evening.
I have had a lazy day - after a hectic week I just "flopped". So I spennt the day watching the Commonwealth games on TV and really enjoyed the day. No doubt Melbourne must have the best sporting venues in the world now. I have always know their tennis venue is the best -they have two fully covered arenas which can be closed and airconditioned if the heat gets too bad or just closed if it rains and then three large show courts as well.
The tennis covered arenas are being used for gymnastics, net ball, basket ball, etc etc and then they are just a few minutes walk from the main arena which , in turn, is only about 10 or 15 minutes walk from the heart of the city. I always love watching the marathon when ever Olympic or Commonwealth games are held as one gets a good look at the host city.
Next week is shaping up a very busy one too - I am beginning to wonder when things will get back to normal and I can have some time to "talk" to you all
I am sure to have missed some important occasions - so please accept belated good wishes and if any one who is unwell I wish you a speed y recovery and you are included in my prayers for all my friends "in the little grey box".
Have a nice day and I will go and have a cup of coffee God Bless Gwen
