I was not looking forward to the pool this morning as it was overcast and feeling cold. As it turns out I had nothing to worry about and the water was fine. We had a fun aquafit class Jan, Rebecca, Maureen, Eileen and I. Afterwards a few of us went to Roadkill Bar for  a bite to eat and a Celebrating Saturday drink.  I had chicken nuggets and fries – yum.

Reminder of the poker run tonight starting at Roadkill 6:30 pm then it moves onto Average Joe’s,  Lola’s, Wayo’s and Pedro’s where the flop will get drawn and best hand with two from peoples hand and 3 from the flop wins the money collected for the entry fee. Often the pot gets up around $500, worth playing.
