Lost Lake

Yesterdays' foul weather has been replaced by a bright and gentle day. The wind has dropped and all is still.

The Gorse Fox had an appointment at football this morning. The guy who picks the teams each week confessed to the Gorse Fox that it looked a bit uneven and he was onto a hiding. The Gorse Fox looked and evaluated and guessed he was probably right.  The game started and we were under the cosh immediately. Having said that, the Gorse Fox managed a break and scored to open up the account for the day. By half-time, we were 5-1 ahead somehow. The second half was a bit more frantic but despite the opponents throwing everything they had at us, we hung on and ended up as outright winners 11-5, with a contribution of 4 goals from the Gorse Fox.

Back home the Gorse Fox arrived just in time to find the Coventry Hobbit and Cousteau-cub just leaving with Urban-cub and Ellie to walk their dog in Hotham Park. The Gorse Fox masked up the end wall and cracked open the paint can. Forty-five minutes later the end "feature" wall was finished. We chose a soft sheen colour called Lost Lake, which is a deep blue shade. He must say he is very happy with the result.
