WACA!!!!

Saturday we had our first shifts at the WACA. Russ got moved into the members bar and loved it.
Russ is at work today. I lasted one day and quit. It was awful-dirty, disorganized and not looking like it would get any better. I had no idea what I was doing as a supervisor and my staff (when I finally got some) had no idea either-what a recipe for disaster that was. I had faulty equipment, no stocks of some things ….the list just goes on and on. Russ on the other hand is really enjoying it. Night before last he worked in the player’s bar which impressed him a lot. He got to serve Ian Botham, Denis Lillie and Kim Hughes amongst others. If I had my time over, I’d have asked for corporate bar work too!

Yesterday he had a day off, so we lazed around then went and picked our NZ nephew Tim and his mate Sam up and brought them over to see their cousins and Leah. They have plans to live and work over here for a while which is great as we've never spent much time with Tim. They are loving Perth already (lots of hot girls apparently!) and just need some work for things to we perfect I think. They are living in Mosman Park which is on our train line about 4 stops away so nice and handy to us. We organised a BBQ and salads for dinner and all enjoyed another of those lovely perth evenings sitting outside by the pool.

Today I am over here again doing my laundry and waiting for a delivery of bedroom furniture for Todd. Tomorrow, Leah and I are off to do a bit of shopping. We want to get as much done for Christmas as we can.
