England was dismissed for 364 and, at stumps, Australia, in its second innings, had lost two wickets for one hundred and twelve runs. This means that it is still nine runs short of ensuring that England bats again; weather permitting, of course.
We picnicked at the Lane Cove River Park on what has been a delightfully sunny day. The paddle-steamer, ‘Turraburra’, was plying up and down the river.
The Australian series, “Ask The Leyland Brothers”, which is produced by the brothers, Mike and Mal Leyland, appears on television from half past five. This evening’s edition visits Lyndhurst, in South Australia, to view carvings done in talcum, before it crosses the Tasman for a look at the old train, ‘The Kingston Flyer’, that travels between the towns of Kingston and Lumsden on the South Island of New Zealand.
At half past six, “The Wonderful World Of Disney” is about a pelican with a broken wing. “The Bionic Woman” follows and centres upon the world of women’s professional wrestling. We watched “The Anniversary” from half past eight. Produced in 1968, it stars Bette Davis, who is cast as a brute of a mother. Her character gives her three sons, daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law to be, hell. The film also stars Sheila “The Rag Trade” Hancock, Jack Hedley and Elaine Taylor.
