Australian Formula



McInherney Park is a popular foreshore reserve which is enjoyed all year round for both active and passive recreation. The park is situated on the banks of the Hastings River and features an undercover shelter with free barbecues and picnic tables. This is the setting for the Australian Formula Power Boat grand Prix.
This was a free event where we spent the morning watching the action and having a lunchtime picnic.




The kids played on the beach as we watched the qualifiers

Jessie's Second Birthday Party

Jessie Birthday falls on a Tuesday this year but we decided to have a few friends over for a little party for her on the Saturday.




The kids had a few snags (sausages) and Birthday cake for desert and Rach cooked a Curry feast for the adults.





Jessie spent most of the evening being chauffered around like the Queen in her toy pram, dressed in her party frock which Nanny Beryl bought her.






She received some lovely presents and managed to blow out the candles on her cake by herself.
The Curry dishes seem to go down very well with the adults with second helpings in most cases.

We are going to have a little picnic for her proper Birthday on Tuesday when she can wear her other new Party dress which nanny Joan bought her
