Re: So.

They have proper fish and chips in Adelaide. None of your grilled fish nonsense. Dip it in batter and fry it until you can't tell what sort of fish it is. That's proper fish and chips. Much less expensive than Melbourne too. Fish is only 5 bucks, 2.50 minimum of chips.

$5 for fish is about ball-park once you get 20kms away from the city. $2.50 for chips is quite low.

If you're fond of Fish n Chips I've got some travel advice for you: Never, ever, ever go to Sydney. They have no clue what they're doing.

Re: So.

I am in Adelaide regularly for work, occasionally get to a game at Adelaide Oval, and also go to the Adelaide Test every year. I think its a great city. They do food, drink and sport brilliantly well - so they are alright with me. Always found the people to be great, and its easy to get around.

Whenever I feel like going to Sydney I go to Hobart instead. The landscape and bay is exactly the same but people are so much nicer.

Yeah, who needs to know what fish or other sea creature type creation is in your fish anyway I say!

Just as long as it's not butterfish!.........

Re: So.

Sounds like a great experience.

What is this game and result you are all talking about?

According to my recollection the last 7 days have been like Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday - day, Richmond lost, Carlton Lost, back to work Monday.

Have I missed something?

Yep. We only lose when there is a 'Y' in the days name.

Re: So.

It's funny but as we walked towards the Mall we were going to Macca's but when we got there we decided that it was too packed and went to HJ's instead. If we hadn't gone to HJ's we wouldn't have met the guy who had two tickets suddenly available because his girlfriend (I assume) dropped out right on game time and went home.

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.

Re: So.

Adelaide Oval is an excellent venue


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

Re: So.

So, T&T, you had a good time? I too went to match. Peeved oppo fans left in rain like Geelong. Presume reason is to ensure heritage scoreboard is kept. No excuse in Geelong. 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...

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!

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.

It was quite nice up on the hill. Even in the rain.

For sure.
