...just when you think it's safe to put away the green!

...someone suggests a St Patrick's Day party at tennis lessons!

Yes, the kids tennis coach Bill thought it would be great fun to have an Irish themed tennis lesson this week. He encouraged all the kids to wear green T-Shirts and he provided green hair spray, green cups and plates and soft drink and a whole load of sausages and bread to have a sausage sizzle party after the lesson ended.
The champagne flowed green for tonight and everyone brought green themed food.
We really have found ourself making the best friends here in Australia. They are so willing to share in and encourage the differences in culture that Byron and myself have brought with us from Ireland and Wales.
There are a mixture of other cultures amongst them too, New Zealand, America, Zimbabwe and of course lots of Aussies and we all seem to get along and enjoy each others peculiarities!
Slainte!

  2. What fun! Love the green wig. LOL My kids play tennis as well. Maybe we could get our children together to play a match game when we go to Australia for vacation. That would be a blast! And I'll finally get to meet you. =)
