Just put it on V.

First thought was, WTF is that crap?
2nd was, is that even the MCG? Looks like the SCG and the sun is shining :?

Now they're suddenly playing some liam **** and it looks like Melbourne.

I've only just cracked my first beer.I think I need a scotch, or a rusty nail.

One rumour came true.

Two thirds of Crowded House are now playing.

I'm interested in what the big 7.50pm announcement will be.

Did you see it? Message from Princes William and Harry. I thought it was a nice touch.

What makes me happy is one more sleep til I see Chris Isaak - even overlooking the 2 hour drive to get there.

Hey what made me happy yesterday was my wife and kids coming to see me at my my "new work". And then, on the way home, asking my 5 y.o. son if it was nice to see daddy's new work and the answer being "Yes... but it was nicer to see you". And the 16 month old daughter reaching out of the pram to give me cuddles. I love being a dad.

Cool bananas. :) Even though it's probably not cool bananas to say cool bananas.

Yeah, I saw it, and to think I put off having a dump waiting for it!

How much of their millions did they donate?

Honestly, do you really think they give a rat's about any of the bushfire victims? I bet they only did it because Kylie asked them to.

Seeing my (more recent) ex-girlfriend again this evening and having a really nice dinner with her. As a friend, she's a keeper.
