AFL Grand Final
I seem to have acquired a rhinovirus
My entire day has been coloured by a frequent need to sneeze. Messily. That is probably more than you need to know so I shall leave the rest to your imagination. (achoo)
We pottered over to Vic Market again. I bought some prawns and half a cow while the less morning-aware had a coffee.
It was a lovely, bright, cold day, so we hired some bikes and rode about 12kms to Dight's Falls. It's a lovely, spot, and I expect we shall be doing the picninc thing there when it warms up a bit. We took some photographs.
The AFL Grand Final was happening everywhere. You couldn't move in the CBD for people in team colours. It all seemed very good natured. We watched some of the match on the big screen at Waterfront City (coincidentally, not unadjacent to the pub), then went home for the second half. Sydney Swans just failed to make an exceptional comeback from 24 points down. West Coast Eagles held on more by luck than skill to win 85-84. No more footy until March.
Achoo.
