Organised and ready for the 2013 AFL season

Og is a loyal member of the Hawthorn Football Club (the Hawks). 18 years!

He is organised and ready for the 2013 AFL season.

Go Hawks!

Me and Mr Merls went to the 2010 Australian Blues Music Festival

I would like to go to a festival every year that I don't normally go to, but with my health and dialysis it can be so difficult to arrange that there is a point where you give up.

However Mr Merls and myself made a concerted effort and got ourselves to the 2010 Australian Blues Music Festival.  As a collection of acts it was great; as a festival it was quite a disappointment.

Og, Mr Merls & Somerled at the Hawks vs Bombers

This is a bit of an annual event for myself and my boys.  It used to be right on my birthday weekend.

You might remember two years ago it was the choice between having a bypass done and going to the match.

This year it is the 2nd time we meet them, in August, rather than than our usual 1st in May

I am the Hawks supporter, but sadly (bad parenting), Mr Merls and Somerled are Bombers supporters.
Even more sadly we lost :-(
