It would appear that getting engaged brings some luck! Not only did Bob win the major prize last Friday (that would be ME!), we managed to win the major prize at the local country club raffle at the weekend, so I've got my very own set of golf clubs!! Hurrah. No excuses now not to learn. On top of that, Bob won $74 when he got closest to the pin at the golf on Saturday AND he won $65 on a wee bet on the cricket!! Lucky us. Have already tested out my new clubs although needless to say I was rubbish and promptly threw the toys out of the pram after about 10 mins. Bob as ever was particularly patient with me but I think I might have to stick to the netball from now on....
We are looking forward to our holidays! The weather has been somewhat rubbish the past few weeks, wet and miserable, and so we are pleased to see that the weather forecast for Alice Springs is 36C and very hot. At last! Some sunshine. Planning on a trip to the big rock and Kings Canyon and also lazing by the pool at our hotel, The Lost Camel. Flying out tomorrow at 6am and staying there for 3 days until we fly out to Perth for 6 days - this is our house that we'll be staying in with our friends Alan, Kelly and Sally, looks pretty good to us!

Planning on a seafood BBQ for christmas day and some fun and games on the beach, very bizarre for December! Have packed my santa hat to feel slightly festive...
Bob and I had our own Christmas dinner this weekend, roast ham (BBQ'd of course) with spiced apples and roast potatoes, yum yum! We did have the Pogues singing away in the background but it just wasn't the same - dare I say it, I'm missing the snow!!
Hope you all have a lovely Christmas, we are taking our laptop with us so hopefully I shall continue the weekly blogging! Ho Ho Ho and all that, lots of love Mo and Bob xxx
