Bricey was invited to a 7yo birthday party today, and I had the pleasure of taking him.

I had been there a few years ago, and always remembered it as a tired and shabby place.

Well, it looks like the place has been given a bit of a freshing up.

The party group went down the Fun Run course and everyone had a good time. Some of the gang even score a hole in one

I'll be back to tackle Waterways and Jungle Trail

So, Billy's been playing Rugby Union for 3 weeks, for Knox Under 13E

The results so far are showing a disturbung trend.

The team is learning how to play the game - obviously.

BTW - I keep bumping into Peter Fitzsimons (ex-Rugby Union International, best selling author, columnist for the Sydney Morning Herald, breakfast radio host AND one of the judges for the Office 2007 Aussie Words Search). He has a son who plays in Billy's team. Maybe I should ask Peter for a few pointers on the finer aspects of the game??
