No, not because of rain, but due to heat. As Adelaide registers its first ever November heat-wave, school sport on the weekend has been cancelled! Meaning I get a lie-in on Saturday but unfortunatelty also meaning my 9B's can't complete their demolition of Sacred Heart (we bowled them out for 151 last week and reached 123-2 by the end of play).
Last week we got an outright win (bowling them out, then batting, then bowling them out again before they make our score) in the C-Grade cricket, earning us up to 10 extra points. This weekend, I'll probably be playing for the D-Grade in the one day competition as it is Ross' last game and we should be seeing him off with a good group of guys in that team.
So yes, the end of an era. On Tuesday next week Rossco leaves! Between now and then there will doubtless be copious amounts of... Subway and Iced Coffee as we send him off in style. Paul Ryan has kindly agreed to giving us the day off to take him to the airport, so we should see him right on to the plane!
There's not much else to report; life has been very busy, essentially running a school PE department for the last week and learning how to do full day duties for when Ross leaves!
Did I mention it was 39 degrees today? I am sweltering!
Oh, and there have been four shark sightings off the South Australian coast this week!
I hope life back in Blighty is treating everyone well, and don't worry, I am staying quiet about the rugby!
