King Arthur: The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. THAT is why I am your king.
Dennis: [interrupting] Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.
If I went 'round sayin' I was Emperor, just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away.

My fab Xmas present - OK it's a little early
My Nanny and Grandpa in Melb. helped mummy and daddy pay off this swing set for me for xmas. We were supposed to wait and put it up then, but mummy and daddy couldn't wait, I won't know the difference anyway. I just love it and want to go and play on it as soon as I wake up. I am here with Jazz who gave me lots of confidence because I was a little scared of it all at first. 
But once we had been on it for a while, I loved it and have learned to say "stop please" when the swinging gets too much.
My "geen swing" rocks and I will be exploring the other bits of it in time.

Our adventure to Port Douglas
Hello everyone, we have been having a fab time cruising around in our new car, it's so easy to drive, it practically drives itself! This is daddy on our way to port. (he DOES have clothes on - it just doesn't look like it)
We stayed at the Radisson treetops and I went ballistic when I saw our room. I was straight up on the big bed for a bouncing test, checked out my little bed, discovered the "little fridge" which was quickly turned from a mini bar, into my own personal snack bar, I could reach all the light switches, got in and out of the bath several times, checked out the toilet, made the alarm clock do "magic music" and commandeered the remote for the telly. Daddy even made "green magic" when he put a special card in the door - I was in heaven and ran from one activity to the next with squealy noises.
Here I am making sure my carrots are safe before we went for a swim.
There was even a lift for me to play with and I pushed all the right buttons when mummy and daddy told me. On Saturday we all went to "On the Inlet" restaurant for an early dinner, I sat up in my own special chair and the pretty girls gave me crayons and paper to do drawings. Here I am, walking daddy to the car.
I slept well in my special little bed but woke up at about 5am (much to daddy's delight) I was full of beans and very excited to find myself still in the hotel with all the new things to play with, I made a bee line to the "little fridge" to grab an apple, and made sure I turned all the lights on and the telly. I then launched myself onto the bed next to daddy for a cuddle 'cause he was "schweeping"
Enough of that now daddy! It's play time!
At 7 we all went down and had a fantastic breakfast, I ate sooooo much fruit, all with a grown up spoon and I did very well too! We packed up our room and went down to check out, and they had a big white "quack quack" (all birds are quack quacks can't you know?) I just loved him and wanted to get very close to him. He made a big noise and I didn't even cry even though I got a huge fright.
The hotel is all open and the rooms are set around a big garden. There are beautiful ponds and little waterways all along the paths which end up at the main pool. The waterlillies were flowering and were gorgeous.
this is the big pool at the end where we swam, it curves around and at the end, there is a big rock waterfall. On the left hand side where the people are, is where we had our breakfast. It's such a beautiful, relaxing place to stay and I can't wait until we come back again.

In other news, mummy made me some ice blocks and she is flat out trying to keep up with demand - I loooovvvee them!! We are catching up with Scott tonight who arrived back from the UK on Friday! Our BBQ on Saturday morning was fantastic, I got into the lagoon pool, lucky mummy had a dress on and was able to follow me in. My nappy ended up weighing about 15kg though so we'll be doing swim nappys from now on. It is getting really really hot now so from next week we'll all be in the lagoon pool and just get out to eat :) I saw another helicopter and just about jumped out of my skin when I heard it coming. I hope you all got lucky for the Melbourne Cup, mummy was very busy and had no time to think about horses, but met daddy at the base in the afternoon where they had a bit of a "do". I think that's about all for now, I hope you are all happy and well, Love and hugs and "green magic" from Kylin. xoxoxo
R.I.P. my friend
I have recieved news yesterday that one of my friends from bowling, commited suicide on Friday night. We sat with him and his two team mates on Friday as we bowled, and hardly stopped laughing, he blew kisses to Kylin as we left, he was in his late 60s, and a real clown. I have no details, I just hope it was quick for him, so whatever made him suffer and make this decision, didn't make it physically painfull as well. Rest In Peace Con - Kylin and I will miss you. xx

OOOPPPSS!!
I did it again:
(copied from goldpin lanes website)
Star Bowler for Game
Karen Casey
52 pins over average with 167 game
Star Bowler for Series
Karen Casey
108 pins over average with 453 series
( a series is the total of your three games played that day)
There are much better bowlers in our league but I am improving so much that I have now got 3 bowler of the week awards for an outstanding day where I scored way over my average - mind you, my average score is what the others achieve on a bad day - still - I am stoked I am improving so quickly. :)
