Charity Day in Mt Lawley
Today the ladies of Mt Lawley put on a huge fund-raiser for three charities. There were stalls for selling things and raffles in the clubhouse. The game started at 8.30 am. It was a stormy, rainy day but we survived! The format was shotgun start and 'American' foursomes - we call it 'Scotch' in Cork! My partner and I were runners-up - that's the second time this week!

President's Prize
Today was the President's Prize to Ladies in Mt Lawley. I had a very good game, scoring 42 points to be runner-up on a count back. So near .... The day was cool. 19 degrees max with strong wind and passing rain. We were lucky to avoid the showers.

wattle bushes on the course
Mt Lawley golf course is really a nature reserve close to the city. There are many species of native flora. At the moment, the native wattle trees and Banksias are in flower. very beautiful.
Fire in st Ives
We had more drama in St Ives last Friday. Electrical wires caught fire under the roof and sent smoke into the main building. No great damage was done but there was great drama as the residents of the clubhouse were evacuated and the fire brigade came to offer assistance and find the couse of the fire. So now, we've had flood and fire - what next?
Rosie O'Grady Mondays
We went to Rosie's again this week - prior to watching The Last Station in Cinema Paradiso - an account of the last months in the life of Tolstoy - again a great movie - especially after imbibing mild liquor!
