Hi there, hope all is well.

We are busy acclimatizing well in Perth and most of the guys are used to the new time zone. The day-off was appreciated by all.

We took the train into the city and had a stroll through some of the shops. We had a relaxed cup of coffee at one of the café’s in town.

There are a couple of different nationalities and cultures in Perth and it was interesting observing all of them.

The players had to look after themselves and had to buy their food from the daily allowance given to them by Oom Wynie.

A Couple of the internal golf competitions were continued on foreign soil as well. Fourie and Danie again edged out Victor and his regular partner, Pedrie, while Jaco van der Westhuyzen and Jaco Pretorius outplayed Werner and Derick. All of these matches were played in a very friendly, but competitive spirit.

All the players had massages in the evening where the stiff backs and hamstrings were worked on and the preparation for Saturday’s match are slowly but surely getting under way.

Talk again soon,
Org.
