A walk & a winner...
It was late Friday afternoon in
Broome. The grey nomads were sitting around on
camping chairs in groups drinking, the families were gathering up their stuff and thinking about dinner, I have no idea what the couples were doing and it was time for us to pick a winner of the granny cushion giveaway. Yippeeeee!!
But how on earth would we choose a winner from such incredible, generous and funny comments??
The random generator thingy seemed too impersonal, I was
waaaaaaay too hot and sticky in this
Broome humidity to write out 150 names, the guy in the caravan next door looked at me funny when I asked him for a number between one and 150, so we decided on something else.
We would go for a walk around and let the Cable Beach Caravan Park decide for us. Somewhere here there had to be a number that means something to our family. Something about our time here in
Broome.
So we set off to see what we could find...
It's Jeanine's 70
th birthday and there's water aerobics on at eight am...
Not a lot of action in the fish cleaning area...No one to ask how many fish got caught today...
Farmer Bren tested if calling 1194, the same number he called when he was a kid, still told you the time
on the next stroke...
Merv used to love site 161...
No number ones or twos in the public toilets while I was there...thank goodness...
No one swimming one, two, three, breathe at the pool...
It was taking a while and they left me to it and went home for a drink. I wandered around, got lost, called home for directions (still inside the caravan park), asked a lady for help and finally after what seemed like forever found my way back to Frankie Blue. What a sight for sore eyes.
And look what I found on the concrete right in front of our site! BBQ6, our very own site number.
Comment number six is
Little Love!!
Yippeeeeeeeeeee
