The last couple of years it's been a multicultural affair, a progressive brekky, lunch, dinner round the neghbourhood with varous nationalities of friends, unfortunately this year had to work so home now and just watching the cricket. ( yawn)

What a great idea Brimo, I might try that next year.

Heaps happened with us today. The roofers came and put the roof on the extension (waking the neighbours at 8:00am), we pulled out the old kitchen (sold it on ebay  [thumbsup] ) , took the paint off the old redgum door step, then gave a BBQ a major clean. I just came in from cooking a barbie whilst listening to the end of the hottest 100 and drinking some Pirramimma Stocks Hill Shiraz ( Dan's is out of the white lable Piramimma  :( ).

went to a national park and walked around the forest and mountains, had a barbie (best burger EVER!) with a nice Dos XX beer or two and washed the gravel and crap (interesting road JC took me on) off the bike. A good day.

Had a quiet day at home - watched a bit of cricket, drank a few imported beers, BBQ lunch,then washed n polished the S2R and put it back in the shed.  Great day in the sun here in tropical Adelaide! ;D

0400 - 0800 watch, Cape Upstart to Cape Bowling Green.

Had brekky, then a coffee while chin-wagging with the 3rd mate on the bridge.  [coffee]
Then did an inventory of our chemical protective gear and breathing apparatus.
Another coffee on the bridge with the 2nd and 3rd mates.  [coffee]

Lunch  [bacon]

After lunch I tried to get signal so I could post on OzMonsters - no luck...
So I had a snooze while the boys tied the ship up in Townsville.

1600 - 2000 cargo watch.
Discharged 600 tonnes of Caltex "super premium unleaded" to Shell. Shell will then sell it as "V-Power"  [roll]
Started the 2500 tonne discharge of "premium unleaded", the 3rd mate will finish it off.

I was going to have a couple of beers, being Oz Day and all. But we sail at 0200 so I won't get much sleep tonight  [bang]

Slept in (as much as we can!)

Cleaned the espresso machine and tested over 2 double (well, ok with a 22g basket, it's really a triple) lates

Took the family to a local park for a run around, ended up with a late lunch at one of the inner wests finest cafes.

Ended the day with some good local cans, and a rolled lamb shoulder on the weber (and more cans!) with some good friends.

Not a bad day at all!


Awesome day...

Headed North for an extra long weekend off road. Nick, our gorgeous Bambino and I took our dirt bikes with us and had a great time off roading on four and two wheels. Watched with pride as our ten year old Bambino rode his dirt bike like a little champion. Riding ruts, hills and rode his first water crossing. All practise for when he is old enough for his own Monster.  ;D
