MONDAY 26 APRIL     MILDURA

Today was the first day of the big bowls tournament.

John had to be at bowls by 8.30am. I drove him there and kept Truck.

I did the washing, cleaned the van, went to the shops for a few things, and read.

In the afternoon, big clouds came across and there was dust around. There was no rain, though I wondered for a while if we were in for a big storm.

At 5pm I drove back to the Bowls Club to collect John. Had to wait almost an hour for him; I’d taken a book, for such a thing, and sat in Truck and read.

The 4’s team John was playing second for, have gotten into tomorrow’s finals, so he was happy.

Tea was soup, lamb chops and vegies.
