Got thru day 1 of the new job. Knocked of early cos my brain was about to explode from trying to take in so much information.

It's not a tinpot organisation by any means but in a few ways, it's like going back 12 years or more.

Well it wasn't today but yesterday I got a Collingwood guernsey!!! (finally)
After many years without one :o I had ordered it from the club & it was delivered yesterday!!! I wore it around & down to the beach, love it!
Also ordered the Collingwood encyclopedia (so I can learn about all the history that I don't know about..... yet.....)

Very happy day!!

Nice for some :P :lol:

my car doesn't have air conditioning, neither does my house, although, fortunately, my girlfriend's does... and my mum wonders why I spend so much time there ;)

Giving my daughter her first driving lesson. Took her out to some crown land out of town and in the space of an hour we went from "which one's the accelerator again?" to driving in first gear only; reversing; 3 point turns; doing burn outs and donuts to driving on the road in "drive" and doing very well. :D

hehe, gotta love the learner burners. I'll never forget driving my mate's dad's big Mercedes 500 SEL and taking out a high gutter with the rear passenger side wheel. Ouch! Big Sam was not impressed :)
