Merry Christmas you filthy animals

Congrats to the Cav clan

All the kids but one disappeared to other parents today. Haydn, Jess’ young fella who is cricket mad (and plays in a local comp) was the only one with us so we took him into the Sydney Cricket Ground for a 20/20 Big Bash match. Came down to the last ball needed 5 and they got a 4, shirt by a couple ...

Had our FIFO-Shiftworker-BlendedFamily early Christmas Day today. Last time we are altogether till next year (and Jess wasn’t working) so enjoyed a lazy wake up (teens are keen to sleep in these days) presents with coffee. Then a few hours of kitchen work for some roast pork and crackling, roast pot...

Yesterday Took the teenage daughters clothes shopping. Gave them my credit card, left them too it. Went and did some Christmas shopping. Headed back to the shop they were in, as I stroll in, the fire alarm goes off. Same tone as our offshore general platform alarm. Work mode activated 😂 Clothes shop...

Well done buddy. Good effort

The latest Wonka movie.

Wasn’t too bad actually, pretty well done.

Safe to say you need new ones

Taking my son to a dermatologist appt (he’s been dealing with bad cystic acne). His mum has brought him to the previous appts. The clinic is in the ritzy area of North Sydney and and is a laser/cosmetic surgery office as well. I’m sitting in the waiting room and it’s full with 50 yr+ wealthy woman t...

I'll comment once you've watched it all I'm going through Better Call Saul again Ah you can comment when ever. The girls are on school holidays now and binging it out. I watched one full ep at around the 60 people left mark and since then I’ve only caught 5-10 mins here and there. Apparently they a...

Squid games the reality show. I mentioned it to my teenage girls and now we are all invested

Got sick of being held up in the AC at home so three of the kids (Jorja, Leila and Haydn) and I ventured out and found a shady swim hole in the local river. Was really refreshing and I was super happy the kids all were keen to get out despite the heat. It’s 6.30pm and still 38 deg C!

Spent the day sorting the pool and now have my daughter and 7 of her friends in there enjoying my labour. I’d say it’s going to get a thrashing over the next week with the current forecast.

If ever I come to Aus you need to take me to your hole.. swim hole.. I mean swim hole! This is only one of many wild swim spots around the Blue Mountains area. Might be a lug carrying your lad into a gorge though 😂 @St Marks .. no crocs this far south. If this was in North Queensland or NT you defi...

Jess had a couple of days off midweek (due to being rostered on every weekend for the next 3 months) so with a beautiful warm day we did a hike in the Blue Mountains down to a secluded swimming hole. Gorgeous spot and the water temp was bang on! Pity it was a 200m climb and 35 deg C coming out 😂 onl...

That’s a fair bit of bike!!! Congrats!

Fingers crossed you have a safer time on this one.

Sounds like he bloody needs a bit of time off poor bugger

Had kiwi visitors last night so we did a big lamb roast and BBQ cook up.

So this morning for breakfast I just had a leftovers delight

Roast lamb and caramelised onion with sweet potato fries with garlic aioli on a toast English muffin. Fooking delicious.

Sorted

Good luck Jon, hope this one works out better!
