The young boy who scored 4 'tries'!!! It is so well set up for them to learn and to just have fun. The state of his uniform after 2 games on muddy fields is another matter.

Getting closer
It seems we are getting closer every day, but progress is slowing the closer we get.
The bathrooms upstairs just need sanding, paint & shower screens. The bedrooms just need sanding, painting, wardrobes, carpet & window coverings. Downstairs needs window edges finished then rendering. Lets not talk about all the painting Andrew has to do, it makes him scared!

Tiles on the inside
It's amazing how much nicer a bathroom looks with tiles instead of the green waterproofing. Now we just need the fittings to go in next week. Fingers crossed there are no issues!
The outside
As of last week we have colorbond on the ground floor roof. Much nicer than the tiles. Now we just have to have the windows replaced & the ground floor rendered for the outside to be done. That would have been achieved more quickly if the window supplier had not incorrectly entered the measurements into the computer. They have to take back nine useless windows....Andrew is also happy that they have taken the surplus supplies away and let his grass breathe again (well it used to be grass anyway).

Big Swim
We did it! A team consisting of my Dad, friends Campbell & Brian, & myself made it - we swam 19.7km in a relay from Cottesloe Beach to Rottnest Island in WA. We took 8 hrs & 24 minutes and feel right proud of ourselves.
When I can get some pictures that don't show us looking utterly shattered & in cossies, I'll post them.
It was one of the most challenging physical things I've done (apart from having children) and very rewarding. Thankfully (??) the last 1.5 km was against the current and I can safely say it has ensured I will never want to do it again.
Thanks to everyone for your good wishes.
