Mom pays a visit............2012

What happened ? For the life of me I cannot remember....... I (Karl) have been so under the pump at work I have no idea of what we did between Karl and Martin's birthday.......... Aaaaaaaaaaaaa now I remember. It was the Melbourne show..............and my Mom was here - The time flew.

PS. I've never known someone to take back 10kg of soap and chocolates.... Don't they have that stuff in South Africa ?

We can smell summer

Sold my motorcycle (yes there were tears) which equates to a smaller CC debt.
Mom (Gran) arrives next week and we're prepared for a full month of activities. The boys got their football medals for participation and are now looking forward to Milo cricket - Damn, I love the weather here and sunny winter BBQ's.

Company golf days and family crisis meetings while installing Karl Jnr's bed was the order of the week at Le' Neu Bauer res.

Things on the cards:

1. Melbourne Show

2. Mount Buller

3. Great Ocean Road

Australia rocks especially when you remember you're in the 80's.

Reward for just being there

Spring is just a few sleeps away

What a crazy month. Work is manic and so is the family so what do we do, we support the Saints. It's been cold, wet and dark (like an English summer) and we are all holding out for Spring.

The boys were quite cute when they hollered to passers by to buy our bushels of home grown parsley --> We Made $5 :-) Then it was time to make Biltong with a few beers.

Been quite busy in the garage doing my DIYd (d=disaster) and letting the boys let rip with their Nike golf clubs. (chewing up my bloody lawn) PS. The missus takes her frustrations out on the drums.....We all wish she would use the damn headphones.

Football and Night Golfing

Mid Winter

What the hell do you do in winter ? It's a freezing 14 degrees and the darn water keeps falling from the sky, who would have thought? Now, what to do - ? Time for a boat show to see what Dad will buy for summer (not that I can afford it or anything) and back for some 5.1 BluRay entertainment and DJ Mix.

Our garden is coming on (things actually grow here in winter) and evenings are fire filled with marshmallows.

Check out my mates Golf and Foodi Blog to the right................ Live the Dream.

DJ's and Marshmallows

Winter 2012

Winter has arrived and life just gets more hectic (and fun at the same time). We visited a ray and shark feeding aquarium. The kids loved it and next time we’ll go in. Last week we took a drive to Hastings, a typical Victorian fishing village in Australia. Boy was the place dead, I’m talking rigamortis dead with the only activity at the local McD.

We went to the Precious Metal Ball last night hosted by Olivia Newton John… It was loads of fun and shed loads of money was raise for cancer research.

Skiing soon – Watch this space.
