New bathers....

Had a bather issue yesterday.. big one!!!

I only have one pair of biniki's... well I had more but that where all HUGE!!!... saggy biniki arse... not a nice picture... My last spring clean saw me throwing them all out... no spares at all!!

This heat wave has seen us at the pool almost every other day. Had the kids dressed and ready to go when I pulled my bathers from the laundry basket, fresh from the line and they where ripped... almost in half!!! Couldn't believe it!

I think they must have got caught in a wire on the line.. totally buggered!

With no spare I drag the kids into our little country Target (used to be Fossey's for those old enough to remember Fossey's) and found about 8 pairs of adult bathers left after the summer rush!! My Biniki top was fine, I really like it, so I was just looking for bottoms. Anyway... Size 18, Size 22, Size 16 a couple of 14, a 12 and one lonely 10 sitting on the special rack.

I didn't even try it on, but purchased this lovely black and orange print tankini set.. for only $16!! Reduced from $60!! Bargain.. and the bottom is black, so if I wanted to wear my old top I could!!

The funny thing.. I quickly dragged the kids into the change rooms at our pool to put it on so the kids could swim... tore the price tag off and quickly pulled it on.

Once in the pool, I was thinking, "God they are uncomfortable in the crouch.." I bloody hadn't removed the "Protective film" from the crouch... blonde.. I know!!

Another busy weekend planned here for this house. Jack has not long left for stock take at work, I kids have swimming lessons in Horsham and my sister is home from Melbourne for the weekend, so will spend the day catching up with her as well.

Tomorrow we have drag racing here at the Warracknabeal Airport. Jack is on the gate all day. I usually take the kids for a look.. they love the noise and cars. It is a fundraising event for WACK... Wimmera Against Cancer in Kids... who wouldn't want to support it! Then i think we will be back at the pool tomorrow afternoon for a cool down!

Just quickly.. Happy Birthday to our own Blonde amazon LINDA... the BIG 4 ... 0......

and just a plug for a local store that has just gone online !! Two sisters in Horsham opened one of the funkiest high fashion kids clothing store... please check out TOFI (pronounced Toffee) They have the summer stock on special now.... go on... get a bargain !!
