Benny and the Jets (Ben Kennedy of course!)





What a night we had at the Jets!! There's nothing like a night out with the MOB - they shamelessly create laughter that follows them around like the lingering looks from the gentlemen in the next box. (Was that our newest recruit caught adjusting her cleavage on camera before she got up close to them?!)








ABC radio Newcastle put on a splendid night for us (Thank you Theresa, Kip, and Aaron), my lovely Husband drove the bus, and the MOB had the standard quota of champagne - all in the name of fun of course!

A few memorable mysteries:


Who was the mild mannered MOB member caught raiding the fridge at the Jets corporate box? Who managed to cheerfully spill their drink over the railing, refreshing the spectators below in a champagne shower? Who nearly caused a corporate box punchup over a dropped passionfruit? Hmmm, two of these answers are the same person...

I would like some MOB feedback on this - any other interesting tidbits to contribute? Comment please.

On another note - Batgirl and I had a lovely surf in the slick smooth water this morning. It was the perfect Sunday, gorgeous conditions, no wind and surfers spread out all along Diamond Beach. When you sit on that tranquil ocean and the MOB friendly waves just keep rolling in, it really is special.


Meditative even.

We won! We won!

Can you believe it? Actually, I can. How could they go past a fun loving bunch of women surfers - and all mothers too? We are winners! The corporate box and a Jets games is all well and good, but we are really winners because we are strong women who essentially know how to have fun.

Thats all surfing is - fun. Importantly, I think its also about doing what you want to do. What do you do in your spare time? When time is free and you are not obligated to anyone else, what do you do? You give to yourself. And what does the MOB do when its playtime? We go surfing: good for the body, the mind, and pure play is good for the soul.

Stay tuned for photos of a rocking good time! (...its a bus trip involving champagne!!) ;)
See you at 4pm my friends.

PS. Don't forget to ask Champagnekate about the photos of her sisters wedding!
