When we left off, dear reader, I was about to go to Jacko's birthday. Here's some pics of that.
We had a great time. Mama, Cath Matthews, Liz and Hussey were there, and heaps of other folks. Shakahari had great food again, and terrible service again and I won't go back there. Also the night ended for me in tears of throat pain, and with Mama earning a black eye in her campaign to educate us all not to drink and cycle. Learn the lesson people!
Then we went out for some really crap Chinese food with Cath. Oh well. I guess it is the year of the Rat.
On Saturday I went to the Melbourne Food and Wine festival at Fed Square. It might have been called the Food and Wine festival but all I remember is beer. Beer after beer. We started out scoring the beers on a scale of 1-10, but by the end I was giving 10s out like the French judge at a figure skating competition.
I went there to meet Nicole from work, her partner Steven and his mate Andrew. From what I can recall, we had a blast.
On Monday, after league I went to see Clap Your Hands Say Yeah again with Mama at the HiFi. They were okay. I think he was wearing the same hat as last time.The crowd seems a little dead and the show was a little flat. Still Yankee Go Home! is always good to see live.
Tonight I ran around the Tan, with my buddies the bats (flying foxes). I also got to hear the Shakespeare in the Park cast booming out Romeo and Juliet. That was a nice diversion.
Congrats to both Tegan & Reuben and Sarah for adopting dogs from the shelter in the same week. Welcome to Wilson (a black lab) and Annie (a beagle mix, search for Didi). I cannot imagine what fool let either of these dogs go, but I am glad they are home for good now.
This week will involve Team Box training on Thursday and Sunday, and a scrimmage against Honey to get amped for regionals coming up in about two weeks in Adelaide. Get amped now!

Ah, cider in the Foggy, that brings back memories. I have a whole shoebox full of photos of us in the Foggy in various states of inebriation. I must scan a few in someday... :)

hi ck hope you are feeling better.
maybe you have the brisbain flu.
try hot peppers to prevent colds.
hillary and bill eat hot peppers daily and they haven't had a cold in years.
fresh lemon juice daily is also a good preventative.
vicki and i are homesick for melbourne. we may just stop by.
