Happy Australia Day, Mate!

G'DAY Mates,
Today is Australia Day, time to celebrate all things Aussie! A time to be at the beach having a barbie and burning a snag or two, playing beach cricket, doing the thong toss, hopping on hot sand, getting sun burned, having a beer or two or three or even four.

Or if your lucky enough to be in Adelaide, going to the beautiful Adelaide Oval, sitting in the Donald Bradman Stand watching Australia play South Africa day/night cricket match cheering on Ricky Pointing and the boys.

Stuffing your face with cream filled lamingtons, pavlova with strawberries and cream and realise with all the problems in the world, we really do live in the 'lucky' country.

So to my fellow Australians, put another shrimp on the barbie and have a great day!!!
