First time pickleball in the shadow of Coolangatta Mountain: April 25 2026
An at home day for ANZAC day. All the shops and cafes closed. There were dawn services and pubs and clubs open to play Two-Up. Not part of our traditions - took the quiet start to the day. Got to update investing stuff. Withering the time away to try pickleball
Under the shadow of Coolangatta Mountain at the local club - my first time
Proved to be an easy transition from squash and tennis - a few rules to deal with. Stay out of the kitchen and no smashing the return of serve before it bounces
Played until the sun dropped behind the mountain.
Did win a few games - better than tennis a few weeks ago where we only won one
Played to last light - happy to have lights on the bike so drivers can see me
There were flowers at courtside - bromeliads
I do like being able to ride the bike for stuff like this - a short hop up the road
Legs were tired - not moved like that in while - found it easy - kill the mistakes and I am a good player
Had friends over for dinner. Part of my job is to entertain the dog = a fun job
The easy part - cook two proteins on the BBQ and some mushrooms. My wife did all the rest - prepare the brussel sprouts, make potato salad, season the salad
Eye fillet was the best - says my wife. Lamb backstrap was good too.
