wife, 2 kids, easier said than done. i'll see how it goes. generally, if i am going to golf on a public holiday, i can't jusitfy 2 hours of travel time as well.
and no, i will not play this at your home course, unless you are willing to play off of 3/4 handicap. i'll give you the same deal at kennedy.

understand completely mate, wife with 1 and 8 months cooking on the second. how about we play at Kwinana then. A bit of half way between us.
see how we go. if that can't work I will forfeit my match no harm no foul and you can go to next round. we have to keep this comp moving! w'ends for me are always going to be hard to clear, always something on and in a months time I'll have two screamin' little bugga's around the house.
JC, how was your holiday mate?
just wondering if we are still going to try and get our match together sometime soon?
would prefer sooner rather than later, the missus hasn't dropped the spud just yet but it's very close and my time will be at a premium once this one comes along until we get things sorted.
you available sometime in the next fortnight, midweek or weekend??
Should have let you lot cut yourselves adrift when you wanted to in the 1930s!
Secession referendum
In 1933, the Western Australian people did not want to be part of Australia any more. The main reason was that Western Australia had to give money to the rest of Australia to pay for national services like the army and education, but they weren't seeing the benefits. As well, the Great Depression had happened and many people were homeless and poor all over the world, including Western Australia.
The government decided to hold a referendum and ask the people whether they wanted to start their own country, and 68% said yes. However, the rest of Australia and the British Parliament stopped it. Even today, some Western Australians do not want to be part of Australia.
