SATURDAY 27 JUNE     ROLLINGSTONE

No sleep in this morning – much noise, early, from the surrounding kids and families.

I walked up and fetched the paper, then read it for a while.

I peeled over a kilo of cooked tiger prawns and packaged them up for the freezebox. Not an enjoyable chore – one has to really love prawns, to do it!

John went off to bowls at Mystic Park again, after an early lunch.

I spent some time on the computer, and then went for a swim. Although there were kids everywhere, there were very few in the pool. I guess it was too cold for the locals!

John’s bowls were ok, he said.

I peeled the remaining prawns and made garlic prawns, with rice, for tea.

We watched Saturday night TV. AFL football featured.

The place did quieten down after 10pm. I was very pleasantly surprised by this – had expected the parent drinking sessions to continue on later.
