FanZone for soccer watching
Howdy folks, heres a few things we have been up to lately. The Euro Masters soccer tournament was held mainly in Austria this year so we got into the football fever, as did most of the country. Unfortunately there were no games held in Graz but we got to watch the games at FanZones in the city centre and at pubs etc. But Austria didn't win any of their 3 matches and drew 1 game (against Poland) so they are no longer in the competition as its finals time now. Their final match was against Germany and it was going off, Jess and I pretended to know the Austrian chants and joined in general noise making and flag waving.
In other news, i have a rug, there is to be no icecream consumed on trams and buses, the uni has a lot of bass amps in one room, and my professor has moved in next door to me. In fact we look into each others windows. morning Ed.


Stay tuned for an Arnold Schwarznegger blog..........................

You should steal that little Gallien-Krueger amp for Robin. I'm sure he'd love you for it.

So there was a feature in the newspaper here, saying that the Swiss Fanzones were going off, and were twice as full as the Austrian ones, which were 'tote Hosen' (dead pants, ie. boring). :) Love the way our countries keep trying to score points off each other. Did you get strip-searched getting into the fanzones as well?
