Bridge of Hope FC

We have started a Bridge of Hope football team! Off the field I was very impressed with the quality of their skills and confident we would be the team to beat. Well, my gift of perception was again proved fatally wrong. In the last 2 weeks we have lost 4-0 and 5-0! On the field NOTHING seems to going right. And the field? Well, because there are no lawn mowers we use GOATS! Yes, that’s right, so we have areas of well eaten grass, and others close to a foot high! Not only that but we play at 4pm. Each day here begins with not a cloud in the sky. That is until around 3pm when it absolutely pours! Last week it was so wet, around ¼ of the whole field was over 4 inches under water. This is a sight to see, and certainly makes fields in Australia look like Wembley!
