Unconditional :)

Our new house went unconditional last Thursday, and with any luck will settle early (Friday 2nd Feb). We went through it again today, to go over our paint samples and make sure that it will all look good :) We transplanted (with the help of Malcolm) all the plants we want to take with us, which was the chilli tree, the mandarin tree, poinsettia and our herbs, so hopefully we can plant them next weekend!!

Owning a horse that may be a champion - PRICELESS!!

Yes, yes, sports fans. Priceless Lad has won again :) Yesterday at Canterbury Park in Sydney, ridden by Darren Beadman, and won like he is going to be a good horse!! You can read a little more about it here. His record is now 3 starts for 2 wins and a 5th (unlucky 5th), with prizemoney and bonuses totalling around $40,000 (which means he as earnt more money in 6 weeks than Esprit d'Oiseau has earnt in 4 years............) Unsure where his next adventure will be, but it is likely that he will now get a start in the city on a Saturday, which is excellent prizemoney when he is a 3 year old, worth nearly 60 grand to the winner :) Needless to say, when he does get a start on a Saturday, we will be on the piss in Sydney that Saturday night :)

Our New House!!!!!

Yesterday, at 6.10pm, Shelly and I bought this house!!! We made a list of everything our new house needed, and this one fit the bill! We settle in 30 days time, so on your next visit to us, you will have new holiday accommodation!! Priceless Lad ran at Warwick Farm yesterday too. He had barrier 1 with Darren Beadman riding him, and was sitting absolutely pretty until he nearly fell coming down the home straight......not good. I am waiting on a report from John Hawkes to see that he pulled up OK. Keep following him though, coz he's a goody :)
