Me,in the stadium....
Yes i know you were beginning to think i was a vampire,but im actually in this photo!!!! Cant believe the stroke of luck i had last night....Was watching the pre match rugby show in a crappy empty Irish bar last night when i suddenly thought that the game is taking place at Olympic stadium only half an hour train ride away...To get on the train you needed a match ticket so after blagging the guard that i was meeting friends who had my ticket i jumped on the train..I arrived to a party atmosphere at Telstra stadium but still with no ticket...After asking a few dodgy looking guys if anyone was selling tickets and being told,"not a chance,mate"of getting one i resigned myself to the fact that i was going back to the Irish bar....As this happened i saw a guy give a ticket to a secrurity guy as he passed through the barrier.I waited around looking at the ticket in the guys hand and after a few minutes had formulated a plan...I bimbled up to him and explained that my friends had broken down two hours from the stadium and had my ticket with them.....He looked at me for a few seconds and then handed me the ticket in his hand...Result...A few seconds later he called me
Outside the Stad.....
Im in this one too!!!! back,which i thought ment he was gonna take the ticket back,instead he said,"Here mate,you might as well have the other one,"which i promply sold for $50 dollars...That paid for my beer for the night...Had a top time.gonna try the same thing for the Ashes,somehow i dont think it will work!!!!!!!!Like Janet sang,the best things in life are free!!!!!!!!!
One more thing before i go,had to take a photo of this.It took a plane a few minutes to write this in the sky...Some people have more money than sense!!!!!!!Im sure the girls will love it though!!!!

top blogging and blagging
loving your work g money. keep the photos, with you in them, coming. i want to chart the growth of your scales you slippery dog. im also pleased to see that you have proved the stereotype wrong - that men can't multitask. by the quality of your blogs, you were obviously listening in english lessons whilst you were reading 'how to be a deadly marine' (no doubt distinguished by the ancient marina - book overlay stylee). looking forward to reading about a broken down camper van!
