A nice warm evening and 2 policemen

We decided to go down to Mandurah to celebrate the new year. Warm evening, a game of cricket - to show the ozzies that we can all play well (sort of), take away pizzas, cup of coffee - or hot chocolate, children playing nicely, early fireworks for families with kids, cheese and biscuits with a glass of wine (white and warm) what more could you ask for? WELL the local police don't like drink on the forshore at Mandurah on New Years eve and a two of them came over to ask us to put the bottle away as it was an alcohol free event - how embarassing!! The evening finished with more fireworks which were very good but not a patch on London. We eventually got home about 1.30am with some very tired children.

On Sunday Jean, Nic and Pete went up into Perth to see some tennis at the Hopman Cup which they all enjoyed especially as Nic got Djokovic's autograph. Jean went back the following day to see the Brits Laura Robson and Andy Murray play while Roger went to help a friend fill in a pond and take some fencing down - how fair is that?

We are now back with the girls and getting ready to move Suzanne into her own 2 bed rental house in a few days time and we will then move in with her. Will keep you posted as how that goes.

Happy New Year to you all.
