    So, if Macca's hadn't been so packed we probably wouldn't have met our new temporary friend and would have been consigned to watching the game on the big screen outside. Life is weird sometimes.
    I love when fate comes into it. It was meant to be and glad you both had a great time. Special times with family are to be treasured. HJ's is better anyway!

    My Footy experience Friday night

    1> My car got sideswiped by a bus in the Centre of the City (minimal damage)
    2> Had to pull over and change a flat tyre, from the bingle, right in the CBD, so i could get to the footy. Parked in a safe spot, right in front of a sex shop, wearing bulldogs gear changing the %^%^* tyre in pissing rain while drunk locals offered me advice
    3> Got to the Footy, got to seat with a minute to spare (yay)
    4>Footy match was boring
    5>Told the missus about the bingle (error) which meant she spent the first half texting me wanting all the info, wanting me to ring the cops, and generally being sh(tty with me for damaging her new car
    6> Got rained on
    Was it that downpour about an hour before the game? We got caught in that and that was pretty heavy. It lasted until we reached the ground too.

Rest of my weekend was beaut though, even with the drizzle. Love their farmers market on Sunday morning and the trail walks in Lofty Ranges so close to cbd. Thought the first half was ok and at least we were dour however agree last half was boring or rather embarrassing. I strangely felt quite peaceful after 3rd quarter thinking at least we are likely to see some of the kids having a run. That and hoping we use rest of year as prep for next year. Oh, and remembering 1/10/16 still brings a smile...
    It was quite nice up on the hill. Even in the rain.

    For sure.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.
