Journal Entry:
Woke up and could hardly move - I'm so sore that I move like I'm 90 years old! Had a huge breakfast then headed for Susie's Parent's holiday house out on the coast. It should have been a two hour drive, but ended up being nearly four and a half thanks to the hideous traffic. All the time sitting in the car wasn't kind to my back.

At the beach house the weather took a nasty turn to rain. Tried to take the dog for a walk on the beach but gave up pretty quickly. Walked up to the bowling club to play the pokies (poker machines). Actually walked away $55 up! Spent the night playing cards ("Oh Hell" - a variation of 500), having dinner, and staying up late playing Balderdash.
