Hi everyone,


Its a shame to say but another year has passed and im still living the dream!!! In a quaint little beach town called mar del plata, which for you dummards who dont speak two languages fluently like me is translated to sea of silver....

So we have had a few great nights here and now its time to head back to BA for New Years...

I spent the first chrissy in 2 years with the fam and as usual mum the sweet mistress she is cooked up a storm and mum and i had our traditional game of centurion, with her sinking the vinos and me on the beers and as usual she kicked my ass, the old boozehag, love your work mum.

Oh above is a picture of a dog i resuced, poor little bugger was dying on my front lawn, i just couldnt bare to make him into a meat pie or hot dog so we took the battler up to the vets and got
