Bowls Update

For all those avid readers out there...we are home forom bowls. It was great fun apart from the odd smart arse comment from a toothless old git who thought he was being funny...but that aside, we had a good game and only lost 8 points to 6 against a team who played in the social league last year..so we were very pleased with that. They told us that they had been beaten 31-0 last year when they first started so we didn't do too badly for our first game.

The sky was thick with smoke and some falling ash as a big fire burns out toward Atawhai, we have a couple of friends out that way so we hope they are ok, not sure what is burning or how big it is but the evening sky is shrouded in smoke.

Have just taken Stellar for a quick 30 minute jaunt along the Railway Reserve, I was just saying to R how lucky we are to live in a city which has nice quiet spots where you can walk and feel like you are the only person on the planet...we are very lucky...I felt like this tonight on our walk as I didn't come across anyone the length of the Reserve which is unusual.

No photos of the bowls so how about a photo of me on the red carpet at Universal Studios...if only I was an Academy Award winning actress.

Go the bowlers! You guys did well - before you know it you will be carrying your own little suitcases of bowls and a little rubber mat! Where can you get those flat soled white shoes??? Just Kidding! I would love to have a go at it some time. Stay cool in this heat! talk soon.
