Tight little sequin numbers


The asparagus is coming! The asparagus is coming! I made my first ever hollandaise sauce and we yummed it up for breakfast with poached eggs and bacon, washed down with fresh coffee. Mmm mmmmm.


Tonight we’re going to a birthday party for a couple of friends so we hitched our caravan up to our friend’s car and took it up the road. It must have been déjà vu for them as they are the same people who towed it up and down the east coast for years for the original owner. We’re going to stay the night, our first night in the caravan, and we may even dream of swinging high in the trapeze, far above the ground, dressed in tight little sequin numbers.


My head is still spinning a bit that Mark Harvey has been sacked as coach of the Fremantle Dockers. What did he do wrong? I remember reading that when he first started at the club and had a few losses some coaches from other clubs rang him and reassured him, telling him he could coach, that things would get better. And they did. He’s grown a talented, tough side that has had a terrible run with injury this year. This vulnerable man, not immune to self doubt, looked completely devastated the other day, sunglasses on, not far from crying again. I feel very sorry for him. We'd better win a premiership.
