1.   At home in Cairns with family close to the pool to cool off with the hot FNQ weather.
 
2.   Butterflied Lamb on the Weber (over hot charcoal) and all the sides. I think the wife is doing a Pavlova but I think a glass of port and cigar will be my choice after a late lunch (I’m not a big desert person).

3.   Great Northern, Bundy Rum, White Wine for the ladies and Lemon Squash for the kids.

4.   Family and a few rings who are orphaned in FNQ this year while their families are down south.

5.   Sore head or not, I will be at work.

Took the boat out on the Hawksbury river, my brother was down from Brisbane.

Took the 4 1/2 month old puppy out on then boat, first time we've had her out since she joined our family.

Lunch was a BBQ chook and salads from the local takeaway.

Sitting on the banks of the Murray tonite, girls have gone to bed, we have turned the genny off, million stars, listening to some music having a few drinks on a beautiful nite. No better way to see out an Australia Day

This is where I normally go for Australia Day but with the twins being 2 it was easier to give it a miss this year and went to Busselton to catch up with family down from the wheatbelt
This year we used my new crane truck which  is a bit smaller than the old one good to see it done the job
You can bet your left nut I will be there next year to give it a good nudge
