Went to the market this morning at 7:15, it was absolutely packed. I loved it.

Ch9's interview with Nick Kyrgios. I really hope he's overcome his mental demons. I'm not a tennis fan but love watching when he is on & in control of his emotions. Looking forward to him & the joker playing doubles too.

Used to think he was a 1st class dickhead, but was at the AO the year he ‘owned’ what is now John Cain Arena, and he had the crowd in the palm of his hand. The intimate nature of that indoor court suited him perfectly.

Yep, he still does stupid things, but I respect that he values putting on a show. I think he could have a long career after competitive tennis being the next Mansour Bahrami.
Dunno, I’m just an idiot.

Big gym session. I've had 30 cans and as many hams in the last 48 hours so a good sweat out was needed. Feel great for it.

From our metro beaches to anything 10 hours away is worth visiting.

Never take for granted how lucky we are to live here.

Yep I’ve been fortunate to do a bit of overseas travel, Fiji, Bali, LA, Barcelona, Montego Bay just to name a few and I will not be convinced SA’s beaches aren’t better than any of those.

Cracker beaches all over the state south, north, metro.

Went down to Aldinga and Sellicks last night for the sunset, unfortunately so did half of Adelaide, I guess it was always going to happen.

May have posted this before but the view from my grandparents front yard (#2) for over 30 years before they moved over the other side of the creek after my grandfather retired.

You may know it as Rapid Bay but to my family it is "home"

Cricket, Rapid Bay Cricket Club.

The women of Rapid Bay planted the oval so their kids could have somewhere to play in the 1950s. I think my Nanna got paid a shilling a day by the company when they planted all the runners.
