A weekend of sporting events, in the main viewed from the comfort of our living room, after a week fighting off a cold virus which was generously passed on to me, with some very satisfying results in tipping- a rare 8/8. An afternoon nap yesterday, then a disappointing showing by the Wallabies in Auckland means that any thought of sending clever SMSs is largely to be avoided..., this weekend, anyway, for the Wallabies only looked good in the first couple of minutes.
Today, the inconsistent Saints have kept their finals hopes alive with a stirring come from behind victory over Port Adelaide.
And finally, making for dinner tonight: an old favourite of mine, smoked cod with a cheese sauce, mashed potatoes and steamed vegetables. I can just hear Aussie Lass and Pink Ukulele groaning, a throw back to years gone by when smoked cod was a traditional dish on Good Friday. But I also know that Muffin Man and Yaya will sit down to any meal that their mother-in-law cooks in a very appreciative manner...oh, sweet revenge...
