Other news....
- Man escapes from shark by vicious poke in the eye (man pokes shark, that is).
- Teenager dies from brown snake bite but man lives after a bite. The moral is if you get bitten, rest, bind the bite area, and send for help rather than go yourself.
- Australia is crushing all comers at cricket (was England during the Ashes but now includes New Zealand). No link since (*sarcasm alert*) there hasn't been any reporting about it here.
- Bush fires up the valley from us. Probably an arsonist. No danger to our neighborhood but we can smell the smoke.
On Australia Day (Friday), we have an invitation to go sailing with some friends in the harbor. The ferry boat race is a highlight, evidently.
Life is mostly good, obviously.

Teenager dies from brown snake bite
That was so sad. Happened right near where my husband grew up, too. He says of course there are brown snakes out there, but some people are naive. I feel so sorry for the family.

Cricket... LOL, yes, I think we're starting to get a cramp from patting ourselves on the back so much. *g*
we've discovered that putting a big shrimp (called prawn here) on the barbie isn't a good idea.
Ahhh didn't you know, barbies are for snags, mate! :-)

Have fun! I've got two friends getting their citizenship that day, so will be cheering them on. hehe
Good words.
