Will miss her heaps as I've loved having her in my household but nice to know I'll have somewhere to stay in Geelong.
She will be working with all the players 3 days a week and the local community 2 days a week under the mentorship of Eddie Betts.

Even though it's not her speciality having done physio at uni for several years and working a couple of years as a physio it's an awesome extra feather in her cap which could take her to even more places she didn't expect.
I'm so envious as she will be based at Kardinia Park and regularly chat with Eddie and all the Geelong players, coaching staff and admin.
I am so bloody proud and amazed. A dream come true.

PS Hopefully a few side benefits for family too. ;)


That's unreal, one proud Dad, Congrats!

KUNUNURRA!
Just spent a week there, between 40 & 42 every day, what a real hidden gem of a place!
Dam-ing the Ord River has been a master stroke, unlimited water for the region plus hydro-electricity.
A multitude of crops grown & exported & the government has just formally approved a mega million dollar grant to finally grow cotton on the flats downstream from Kununurra,
could this be the end for Cubbie Station?
Let's hope so!
Anyone looking for a job? This is the place if you're in the hospitality industry, or you're just a hard working labourer.

Yep, ripper of a place.
We were due to head up that way next week but chose to go to Tasmania instead because I just can’t trust McGowan under the current climate

I’ll be happy for anything as long as Cubbie Station gets the boot along with all those water stealing thieves the whole way along that basin.

It's been a discussion for years, do we start taking the food bowl to where the water is or continue to try & bring the water to where we currently produce. Would love to see more of that water (Lake Argyle/Ord river) used inland for the remote indigenous communities in WA & NT too. I'm far from being a greenie but planting more trees/crops in central Australia can only be a good thing

Our town when summer sports are back

Round 1 cricket this weekend, round 2 for the tennis with the misses playing her first ever game

Then both clubs back to the pub until stumps to talk shit about the days play and every other aspect of life, whilst hotly debating cricket vs tennis

Like a kid at Christmas.

This post takes me back to the early 90’s Pre kids.

Saturday routine.

Me - Golf 7.00am; Cricket 12.30pm

Mrs C - Housework in the morning, Tennis in the afternoon.

Meet up at the pub around 7.00pm for a meal and a few sherbets.

Tired just thinking about it!

Just closed my biggest sale ever,
30 acres of residential land for a very cool $8 million,
together with everything else I've sold in the past 3 months means that next year is going to be, to quote The late great Frank Sinatra, a very good year.
