Weekend Diary

For those who wish to know what goes on.
Friday after work and school involved a trip with boys to open air pool at Khandallah Park to catch some rays in the sun. Dad read his book. Boys played. fought and screamed.
Then it was off to Nairnville to practice in the cricket nets. Joe working on his left arm spin which is coming on. Accuracy is improving, and certainly looking more like a bowler these days. A bit of a work out on the batting; backlift and eye-foot-bat to ball stuff. He then practiced his fielding which was not so good, as plenty of low ones went into Dad’s shins. Bruises expected tomorrow.
Rushed back to pick up the pizza for tea, and a beer in front of the telly with the Hurricanes playing the Cats
Tomorrow morning offers cricket game across town with the Onslow Shastris (grade 10) playing Brocklyn. After last week’s display the coach is looking for improvement, but is confident.
Then after game Joe has to sign up and weigh in for rugby registration. Soccer is gone, rugby is in for the coming winter as Joe dreams of future All Black glory. Yes there is an official weigh in and have to prove age with passport or birth cetificate. No messing about here.
Isaac bithday party with 9 other five/six year olds takes up the afternoon. Trepidation already being felt.
And then he rested on the 7th day.
