      And introducing yourself as the original Murphy's Lore?

      I'm pretty sad about the time to be honest, I would love to go along.
      Wake me up when we get to heaven, let me sleep if we're going to hell

      Good luck, for your sake I hope heaven and hell are really there, but I wouldn't hold my breath

      And we all found heaven - 2016 Premiers!

          You can talk author to author.

          Might be time to change your avatar to the book cover ( if that works, as I haven't seen the cover)

          Edit: here it is.

            Done -- the puppy has got the flick.

            A few years ago when there was some discussion of Bob writing a YA book for my publishers, they suggested I could be his mentor… Needless to say, I thought that was a VERY good idea.

                      Commentators mentioned he played 300 AFL games of all types, thus he got AFL life membership.

                          I wan't able to head down to Bob's book signing on Sunday as I scored last minute world cup tickets, so I got my Mum and sister to go down and pickup a copy for me and they also took my daughter down to meet Bob.



                          She doesn't seem all that impressed at meeting the great man!
