Got a few prezzies from my daughter this morning (Bag of liquorice and a neck tie). I then headed off to do a round of 3D archery at my local club. I haven't shot the bow for about a year but was pleasantly surprised to get one of my best scores to date. I'm feeling it in my shoulders now though. I need to build up my strength again.

Cheers

I got hair clippers - any barber that charged me for a haircut is stealing!

I got a quick m/bike ride into town for a coffee with mates this morning. Then took my girls to the bike park to burn some energy.

Now I am watching MotoGP qualifying...

I did pretty well. Cobra aside of course...

Dad and I had a great day. We went in Dad's Cobra to the Qld Cobra Club breakfast at the winery in Canungra Valley. A great drive; heaps of Cobras, great people, fabulous location and perfect weather.

Back to Dad's place, jumped into my Cobra and went to a pub for lunch and a couple of beers.

Home again to talk about cars and footy. A great day!

Father and son with a Cobra each, I'm jealous.

Hope all had a good day.

Early morning run up the mountain to the Canungra Winery with about 65 friends, for the Cobra breakfast meeting

Wineries Gold Coast Hinterland - O'Reilly's Rainforest Retreat

Followed by a brisk run across the top of the range through Beechmont, chasing a very quick group of motor cycles...
Beechmont, Queensland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Home for a "nana nap" in front of the TV....

Followed by a full on Family dinner with the kids at the favourite restaurant just up the road...Kokonut Willys, at the Grand Hotel, Labrador...
( and the kids picked up the Tab !! )
http://www.thegrandhotel.com.au/index.php/kokonut-willy

And a special " Happy Father's Day" cake...baked by my beautiful daughter...

And a bottle of Bundy Rum for my present.

A perfect day....

Feeling blessed.

Cheers,
Warren

Thats the problem with bikes Mike, they focus on the legs.

The girls got me some cologne and a Darrel Lea goodie bag, the took me go-cart racing.
