    Wow that's what happened to my brother and me. I was his second birthday present. It impacted my whole life. Just like our first premiership in our living memory will. We are going to have to wait before we give birth to that one. Most of the other clubs have had quick caesars after test tube conceptions from overpaid stud fathers.

      That's amazing BIDS54. My 2 boys are very close, even by normal brotherly standards - like twins even though they are 2 years apart (the younger one is physically bigger, they often get mistaken for twins. To top it off, they were born in early June - Gemini!). I am aware that having the same birthday has had an impact on them but it's hard to fully get it unless you are directly affected.

        It's been a terrible summer cricket wise, I think that's made an impact in wanting some sort of competition.

            Yep, it's a weird one all right. My two kids are particularly close as well. My son is a real "big brother" type brother and my daughter dotes on him. But boy can they argue.

            Mm. Tennis and the Grand Prix (especially the GP) are the things I impatiently wait to finish knowing that the footy isn't far off when those are over.
            They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

              I've already watched The Ride four times since Christmas Day.
