Australia Day cricket match

 Typical hot summers day down south at least 5 degree with no wind check out the melt walking back from the wharf after that invigorating swim so glad my legs still work. Looks like it will be a great day for cricket typical Aussie tradition.
 Had a bit of a warm up kicking the footy and catching with some of the Aussie Rules boys they sure do pass the ball in a funny way. I hurt my arm not acting my age reaching out with one arm extended trying to catch the impossible and tore my bicep muscle. But as they say the show must go on and i did not want to miss out. Ready to bowl just letting the umpire know which side of the wicket's i intend to go.
 The battle field with the vocal spectators cheering on
 It is amazing what you can use ice for including keeping the wickets standing strong.
 Also makes a good communal outside self cleaning esky. Time to grab a beer and do some fielding.

Not much happening out here have strategically placed my beer in a safe location just in case the action cranks up. Glad it did not was in pain and had to give it away and let Scotty my brother in crime ( the other plumber) go and finish the battle. Was a close game and our side just got over the line right at the end.
Was a great day cold beer, barby, sport, and sensational company does not get much better.
