Athletics Carnival









last friday Anna, Darcy and I ( Ruby) had our annual school sports carnival. Our faction Riddell ended up coming 2nd out of four and Miller coming 1st with 702 points!!! Darcy and I had to run in the 200m 400m and 75m sprint. Anna came 4th in the 50m sprint and I think she was pretty pleased with herself about that! We all had a great day and slept like logs that night!

The mighty Taipans

After what Terry and I described as a year of rebuilding (code for "we didn't do that well"), the board agreed to renew our contract for 2011.

Nedless to say their confidence has been repaid in spades with two wins from the first two games. The detractors are saying it's more good luck than good management but we have once again given an undertaking to step down if we fail to make the finals (top 4 play off in a 4 team comp, so we rekon we might be right).

Be careful getting in the pool



This is what happens when you miscalculate on a bomb. Head first into the pool step. Blood everywhere. Brightened up everyones day in the casualty department though.

Before you ask, it was at 11 oclock in the morning and I was sober.

Not a bad one


There you go, a one metre Cobia caught from a 1.5 metre inflatable zodiac. Not a bad effort if I might say so myself (there was 2 of us in the boat as well - luckily the other bloke knew what he was doing!).

This place is called Middle Lagoon - Milargoon is the spelling and pronounciation used by the locals. It's up on the Dampier Peninsula & a great place to be.
