Australia day

So, I've mostly been moving around rocks and helping to build a waterfall feature. I'll take pictures some other time. It looks good so far.

Yesterday was Australia day which was the 26th of Jan. Australia day is like the day when it was founded or something, theres beers and barbies all over on Australia day.

We went down to the local tavern at baffle creek. They had loads of games like marbles, boat races, mullet tossing, welly throwing, casting, toad races, snail races and all sorts of fun. I lost at marbles and welly throwing, miserably. Oh well it was fun though. I had a few glasses of Victoria Bitter one of the Australian bitters, not bad. Quite strong though. They don't have pints over here so the nearest thing to a pint is a scooner. No idea what it means though.

I came home pretty early, I drove the auto home. Then Glen stayed down the tavern and waited for ray to finish work, he works there. Whilst I was here I watched 4 weddings and a funeral and read some more of Jackie chans autobiography. Which i slike 400 odd pages and I've read about 330 in a few days. Which is condsidering I don't read! Not much else to report pretty mild today, cloudy and over cast still humid though.
