Tigers on comeback trail

The Tigers made a comeback this weekend against Newcastle in pouring rain after the flogging they received last week from the Rabbits. They just didn't "want to be there" last week and made so many mistakes I thought I was watching the under 4's. We had good seats and all in the Ladies Stand at the Cricket Ground I had on my members Tiger's cap and it was such a waste although Tony enjoyed it. The shoe was on the other foot this weekend and the Rabbits lost to the Warriors in NZ. Debbie who sits next to us at the footy and is an ardent Rabbitoes supporter came out to the sticks today (she lives at Newtown} to watch the game on foxtell with us. She went home crying as they lost by 2 points.

More car trouble ......this time it wasn't the new car it was my dear old Lancer. I arrived at Kerry's to babysit Jake and found smoke coming out from under the bonnet. Tony who was doing a small painting job nearby called in when he was finished and took my car to a radiator specialist at nearby Marrickville. The radiator was corroded and needed a new one so he had to leave the car there and we had to come back the next day to pick it up.

This last photo was taken by Felise. She did a better job than we did except for her thumb.

A funny thing happen when Felise was getting ready to go to Kindy. I told her to go the toilet before she left which she proceed to do. She did her wee then pulled up her undies. I said "Felise you didn't wipe your bottom" to which she replied "Its alright Grandma, I did that last week". She sure makes you laugh sometimes.

Tebbutt news ......Erwin gave me an envelope last week and in it was $10 and 3 lottery tickets. He wanted me to have it as I had given him a bird of paradise plant and had printed out a lot of different information for him in the past. I notice he had printed Erwin and Cathy on the 3 tickets so I suppose he expected me to share them with him so I didn't feel so bad. Unfortunately they didn't win a brass razzoo.

Kerry and I went to see the ballet "Coppellia" (The girl with the enamel eyes) at the Opera House. Kerry had seen it several times but for me it was a first. It was an enjoyable production although we both preferred the ballet we saw last month. Our next ballet is not until December when we see the Nutcracker again which I will be looking forward to. Maybe next year we will take Felise along.

Son, David has taken off for an adventure overseas with his Dad and sister Melissa. Hope they all have an enjoyable trip.

This is a photo of neighbour Graham's new caravan. The other photo is the view from our place where it will be parked. Luckily the bush will cover most of it. It has everything imaginable in it.
