Hope your older children gotten their Harry Potter's last book. I saw lots of happily jumping children at the sales' opening.

My GF got hers this morning (no she didnt wait outside a bookstore for midnight to roll around and she didnt dress up either ) and at 12 this afternoon she was nearly half way through it

For all i know, she has probably finished it by now...

Didnt watch it. Its almost as confusing as AFL.

Now rugby league on the other hand....

Go Newcastle

now, as a Cantabrian living in Sydney's East - I'm as happy as the proverbial pig in s**t.

ABs beat the Wallabies
Roosters beat Newcastle

Great start to the weekend!

Horrible start to the weekend

At least with Lockyer and Hunt out, the broncos are royaly screwed for the rest of the season

GO ALL BLACKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

anyways... *cough*...

Did anyone go to see the Kitty Hawk? It looks incredibly UNimpressive from Luggage point (where everyone's going???) in my opinion cos you just see the side of it

ANYWAY.... did I say GO ALL BLACKS?

In an effort to change the subject from tonight's embarrassing game *cough*
NZ's foreign debt must have doubled with the payout given to the ref ....

Didn't see the Kitty Hawk, but took a few of the crew out for dinner at Southbank and then on a small photoexpedition. What a great bunch of people. One of them is a member of this forum.

I haven't seen the Boat but I saw the sailors in The Valley tonight

heheh saw the sailors eh?

but yeah... not saying it's unimpressive... I just expected a lot more... but I guess the angles wasn't that great... plus I was a bit of a grump for not being told we were going there so leaving the camera gear at home... i even had my friends 100-400!

Have you used the 100-400 yet? What did you think of it?

A guy who my mum works with his dad is some former US Navy something or other and they got to have breakfast on the Kitty Hawk on Saturday morning Talk about salt into the wounds

Go the TALL FERNS

man you guys had a bad day with sport yesterday..

Oh for God's sake....New Zealand wins one little game of football and crows about it like they're "the king of the world". (When in fact they're really Australia's eighth state.) That ought to stir the pot a bit

ooh those grapes must be very sour over there.. lol no wonder our wine is better too..
