Thursday 24th July 2014

The winter chills have set in but luckily we have had plenty of sunshine, sadly no rain for the gardens.

Friday 11th July 2014 We went shopping to Bunnings and I bought a "must have" rose called "Gift of Grace". Could not go past that rose.  Later I worked in the front gardens finishing the pruning and weeding. Friday evening we went to the Golf Club for dinner and raffles.

Saturday 12th July 2014 I worked in the golf club gardens planting in some grasses at the 18th and watering the Camellia Way,

Sunday 13th July 2014 we played golf with Steven & Annette Cross on a freezing cold day.   We had a good fun day.  After golf we went to the Gosford Hotel for dinner with some of our golf friends.

Monday 14th July 2014 we were up early for F-Troop. We had a busy morning with not a lot of helpers. In the afternoon we delivered some firewood out to a home at Wamberal.

Tuesday 15th July 2014 I played golf with Kath Payn and Merran Adams in a stroke match.  Kath was our champion of the day and a winner on the day.  Merran beat me by a stroke with our scores not the best.  We had a good day and the girls were good company.

Wednesday 16th July I spent all day pruning the roses at the back gardens.

Thursday 17th July 2014 it was more of the same and I have now got all the roses prunes bar a couple of the climbers.  So that is a good job finished.

Friday 18th July 2014 We went over to Anne's unit to weed the back gardens before they move out at the weekend.  Rod and Anne are moving to a four bedroom house which will give them some good space for the three littlies.  Joel and Emily helped us in the garden and we stayed for lunch.  After lunch we went over to look at the new house which is closer to us which is good.  It is a lovely place all on one level with a great secure play yard for the kids.   That evening we went to the Golf Club for dinner and the raffles.

Saturday 19th July 2014 we went household shopping in the morning.  It was a freezing cold day so I cancelled my plans to work at the Golf Club and instead was a lounge lizard all day watching the golf.

Sunday 20th July 2014 I moved things out of our spare room (which is now my walk in wardrobe) as we have family visiting in a couple of weeks and I need to make some room.  In the afternoon we went to the Grange Hotel for lunch for the Gosford Townies Re-union.  I have got a lot of photos taken at the luncheon so I will put them on a separate posting.  We had a lovely afternoon catching up with everyone.  That evening I sat up until the early hours of the morning watching the final round of the British Open.  My favourite player Rory won the day.

Monday 21st July 2014 I struggled to get up for F-Troop and was okay when we got on the move.  We did not have a lot of helpers  so I spent the day pruning the Crepe Myrtle Trees which kept me awake.  That afternoon I was a lounge lizard again having my nanny nap.

Tuesday 22nd July 2014 I played golf with Kath Small and Judy Hughes in a par match for the Grandma's trophy.  We had an enjoyable day and my golf was improved from the previous week.  The Vets Delegate presented me with a VWGA Hole-in-One Medal which was exciting as I did not know they did that. That made up for not winning the Grandma's trophy.

Wednesday 23rd July 2014 we took an early morning trip the Aldi to pick up some of their specials and then I worked at the Golf Club planting in some gazanias and watering the gardens as it has been so dry.

Thursday 24th July 2014 I am having a catch up day at home.  It is not a nice day outside and much better inside where I have a lot of jobs to catch up with.  One of which was this blog.  I will put on the Townies photos now so everyone can copy them down.

Tomorrow we are going to see Rod and Anne's new place now that they have moved in.
