Since LH is back from Perth, Sunday night is once again Outdoor ‘Indoor’ Cricket night. I hate to brag and everything, but LH did really well this week.
The Outdoor ‘Indoor’ Cricket nets.
C. and LH went in to bat first for their team, and ended up being the top scorers. They only went out *once*, and scored 32. Some other people scored in the negative (you lose I think 6 runs, for going out?), so 32 is quite an achievement.
LH also did some super epic bowling. He took two wickets in a row, and was very unlucky not to get the third. It was caught off the net, which is ordinarily out, but because it was the back net it was a ’6′ instead. Personally I think this is rubbish, it should have been a hat trick for LH. This is what I will tell everyone, anyway.
In other news, look how much petrol is going for at the Roebourne BP.
Normally my Premium Jeep would get Premium Petrol, but since it was at $1.86 a litre, I decided that the $1.77 unleaded would just have to do. I estimate that I could take a pay cut of about $8,000 per year, for a job in Karratha instead of Roebourne, and still be ahead just based on how much I spend on petrol every week. It is seriously mental. I miss my scooter that used to get by on $10 a week!
The fuel prices are insane, yet another premium to be paid for being isolated that’s so stupid.
