i am grateful for what’s becoming a weekend ritual. In the early afternoon, after a good long lazy morning of doing whatever we do, Coop, Farley and I turn on the TV and watch an episode of Top Gear. Farley falls asleep on my lap during a talking part, and Coop and I learn something interesting about supercars. It’s glorious.

I am grateful for our first four-passenger voyage in El Banana. It was a resounding success, taking in much of the Gorge here in Victoria, with a brief stop at a play park.

I am grateful for dinner out at White Spot.
