Winners at Last
Tammy joined us again and this year we celebrated the victory afterwards with dinner at the Yak Bar and of course a celebratory Champagne. We had been unable to get tickets originally but Bianca managed to get 3 at the last minute so this year we were not seated with Bianca or Verity. Not a problem though as the SMS kept everyone in touch throughout the game. Astrid & Hans watched from home. So the next best thing was to hold the celebration/wake the following day.
Tammy, Bill & I headed off to Chum Creek (Healesville) the next morning and we had a great day with us three all dressed for a victory dinner in Red & Black. It was very cold and Bianca took great delight in the only footwear being available to fit me was her Collingwood slippers.
While there we had a wander through the forest across the road that in January had brought the fires right up to the front door. It is just amazing to see all the grass growing again though the trees will take much longer to come back, I guess. Even though we had seen all the photo's of the fires, it sure brought it home just how close they came.
So with another game in the bag, it's time to see what else is happening around the place so it's back on the road again.
until next time..........
