Sunday 23 January 2011 - Today is a rest day with Happy Golf in the morning, 8 ball pool in the afternoon and Happy hour in the evening. Barry went to Pool to have a look and stayed to play, he enjoyed it so much. The Happy hour was practically a non event but we had a good laugh anyway.
Monday 24 January 2011 - The week starts and so does the activities - I did Water Aerobics at the pool in the afternoon and we went to happy hour in the evening. Water Aerobics is very good.
Tuesday 25 January 2011 - What a busy day - Men's shed and Crafty Travellers in the morning, we went our separate ways but neither stayed very long. 8 ball pool and water aerobics in the afternoon and happy hour in the evening.
Wednesday 26 January 2011 - AUSTRALIA DAY CELEBRATIONS - WHAT A FANTASTIC DAY - it all started at 9.00 with registration and ended at about 6.00pm and was non stop all day. We started with Disc Bowls - then morning tea of Lamingtons, piklets with jam and cream, Anzac biscuits and Vegemite and cheese sandwiches with tea and coffee, then I went off to water aerobics, we played carpet bowls and 8 ball pool (yes I played) and then lunch. This consisted of Pie, mushy peas and mashed potato OR a pie floater which is a pie turned upside down in pea soup. Barry had both I had the former, tea and coffee.
After lunch we played Toss the Thong, and guess what I won thanks to my days of squash and what did I win - a pair of thongs of course. They fit Barry well and have the Australian flag on them. Then washed toss - it is square box with a 7.5cm pipe in the centre of it. If you throw the washer into the centre you get three points, in the box 2 points and on the ground within a 30 cm area you get 1 point. My team and I won the first game but beaten in the second game. Barry team did not win any games. At 3.00pm the entertainment started with Big Hal singing with a sound disc backing - he was very entertaining, we all sang along, danced to the music and had a great time for 3 hours. $2000.00 was RAISED FOR THE QUEENSLAND FLOOD APPEAL.
WHAT A FANTASTIC DAY
Thursday 27 January 2011 - and so the activities commence again. Today I went to have a look at Clogging/Appalachian Mountain Tap Dancing and stayed and had a lot of fun bringing back childhood memories, Barry and I both played 8 ball pool in the afternoon and of course - water aerobics for us both ending with Happy Hour.
Friday 28 January 2011 - I think I am going crazy - today I went to have a look at line dancing and of course stayed and had loads of fun, Barry and I walked into Casino and had some lunch and did a little shopping at Aldi then a walk up to Woolworths and we found there was a bus that we could catch back to the village. We did this and asked for a timetable so from now on, if Barry is with me, we will catch the bus to and from the town centre. Water aerobics and happy hour and collapse.
