G'day !
" We are so happy we have dogs - they complete our family. We are so happy we have dogs - they complete our family. We are so happy we have dogs - they complete our family. "
This is the mantra that Bron and I have taken to saying every night. It is only partly because at the moment Tessa in particular, is finding the lure of wallaby scent from Peter and Margaret's garden to be stronger than any fence. This means reinforcements are necessary and with only 20 metres of the 500 metres done, the task is quite a daunting one. Oh, and they had a full on ' blue " ( fight ) today...........oh, and Tessa spent last weekend in the Vet and refuses to pay with her pocket money..............oh, and Holly will still chew a shoe left at ground level if she gets the chance.............
" We are so happy we have dogs - they complete our family. We are so happy..................."
I must say the response to my Morne Steyn vs Ruan Pienaar survey was spectacularly pathetic. I got 5 replies and it was Steyn 3 and Pienaar 2. One of Pienaar's votes came from his neighbour who had some very nice things to say about him and the other came from my dearest friend whom, I am glad to say coaches the South African Cricket team not the Rugby team. Let's be honest, we can't be unhappy with what they've achieved. Anyway, I passed the result of my survey on to Pieter de Villiers who obviously took it seriously and the rest, as they say, is history.
I have had a busy 3 days on call and can't wait to fall asleep tomorrow night, knowing that my phone won't be ringing and that I won't be having to dodge wallabies and hares as I drive to the hospital. One positive has been the fact that I've been able to follow the 4th Ashes Test and obviously last night's rugby. There have also been some interesting Chatshows ( asparagus growing in the Yamba Valley, 2 million camels in Australia's deserts....) and some music which I've never heard before, on ABC Radio. Tune in or catch it on Broadband between one and four in the morning Australia time.
A new week is upon us and we aim to make the most of every opportunity which presents itself.
The Westralians - Dyl, Bron, Matt and Jen

I'm sure Bron's CV IS impressive-she had a reputation at Crawford as an incredible teacher. Very impressed you remembered all our names -or is it that we're just unforgettable ;-) Spent much of last year at Umhlanga Hospital with Timmy & thought of you often but we've had to accept that we're not gonna find another Dr Dylan. (Did you ever complete your version of 'Bob the builder'?)

Doctor Digby is still just a dream - maybe one day..........
The BIG question is... will Doctor Digby have a South African or Australian accent :)
Chinese I reckon.............
