Yesterday we had the lowest Canberra September maximum temperature for 42 years. I can well believe it. Plus with the wind, it was fffffreezing.

Finally, our best performer recently, including at yesterday's handicap, would have to be Caroline Campbell, based on age percentages.


Now I need to go and do some work on the coaching plan. And I am so looking forward to daylight saving starting this Sunday 4 October. It's all happening! See you at training!
