Susan's gone Scottish!

A few years ago - whilst pregnant with Sophie - I saw a Scottish Country Dance group perform at the local Highland Gathering. I thought - wow - that looks like fun and then put it at the back of mind to get involved in once Sophie arrived. Well, I've finally joined the group nearly 2 years on!

I'm having the best time. It's a bit like Australian Aussie Bush Dancing but a bit more confusing and complicated - you can blame the Scots for that!! My fitness level is a bit frightening, but with 2 hours of non-stop dancing and barrel loads of sweat - I'm sure to get fit soon!

The sad thing is is that the average age is about 60 or so and I don't see any sweat pouring from their brows :) They are such a friendly and lovely group and as well as the dancing I'm enjoying socialising with them. It's every Friday night - rain, hail, snow and shine. They have a social every so often so I'll be sure to take some photos of the men in their kilts and the ladies in their dresses to post on here.

Boys Weekend



Kobe and Gary set off last weekend to the Gold Coast and Wet n Wild. What a fun filled, jam packed, slide zipping, tired eyed, dining out weekend they had. They flew up on the Friday afternoon; spent the entire day at Wet n Wild on the Saturday and then flew home VERY early Sunday morning. Kobe was full of exciting stories on his return home! Gary and Kobe got to stay with his Uncle who lives the next exit after Wet n Wild - so we're so grateful! Maybe this will become an annual event ... Sophie and Susan are now planning their girlies weekend ... lol!
