Updates on all Teams I support:

Western Sydney Wanderers is 5th on 28 points, he ladder with a 2 -1 win against Adelaide City. I point behind Macarthur and with the next game local Derby against Sydney City on 2nd March 2024

South Sydney Rabbitohs kick off their season against Manly Sea Eagles in the Mighty USA, on Sunday, 1.30 pm. The last two training matches were a win and a loss 10-46 against the Roosters and 28 - 6 in The Charity Shield against The St George Dragons.

Tottenham are in 5th place on 47 points with a loss to Wolves recently 1-2 and next up is the game against Crystal Palace, whilst the  Chelsea game has been postponed. A few more winning games will place Spurs in a stronger place for 3rd.

Paris Saint-Germain are clear leaders in the French League on 54 points, their nearest rivals are Brest on 43 points. Their next game is on Saturday against Monaco in 3rd place with 41 points.  For me, losing Mbape at the end of the season, could make the next season  more interesting

For my French families, I am happy for some of them who support Lyon, who when I left France, last year was 2nd last on the French Ligue table yo currently in 10th place. Congratulations!

New Bay & Basin Buses NSW FaceBook Group reaches membership of 28 in less than 24 hours

To start a Facebook Group you need to have backing. Backing of the community and if you have little contact, you get little response. The 28 members' response is huge for me. That is more than one member per hour joining up and I hope there is more to come. 

They that joined, are people concerned about our local public transport and their services. They would like to see how we can get more people on buses, especially locally.

In time, I  don't know if it could happen, I would like to see bus patronage figures compared from year to year for 3 years. I want to see the trend and we can see the trend for the future. If I can get one extra person per day to catch a bus, that is 365 extra people per year and if everyone in the group can do the same.... just imagine how many extra people per year.
