GO EELS

Gotta love the mid season turnaround in performance from my beloved rugby league football team the Parramatta Eels.
Like most other Eels fans, I was shaking my head in the first half of the season at their lack lustre performance and had accepted their then seemingly obvious route to being the wooden spooners of the comp.
But then, the side snapped into consciousness and pulled out seven straight wins to land them at eighth slot on the ladder and into the finals series...the mere fact they pulled off such a huge turnaround to get to the finals had restored my faith (and I was happy with that alone!) but they have now blasted their way into the Grand Final. What an Effort!


GO EELS ! !

Here are my "Eels Supporter"transportation shots.......







Blue and Gold of course!





...love the Plates!
('47 was their first year in the comp)

The NT has come to us!

Woke up this morning to an eerie glow!

This first pic was taken by Jimmy D through the front door early this morning around 7:30am.
The other photos were taken about 8:45 this morning.....

Apparently it is dust being blown in on the westerly winds from the Northern Territory. Well that saves us a trip to the Red Centre now doesn't it? as it's now covering everything on the East Coast.

Drove the 'Potholes' to school to save their lungs; when I washed the windscreen before take off it created a mud flow!..... hmmm the car wash down the road is going to make a bundle after this blows over!

Is it wrong to wash your blood pressure medication down with a cup of coffee?
