Hi!
Well since greg flew home on sunday ive had a qutie busy week but also a bit of time to myself which has been good!
Sunday night i went with Pete sanderson (sanders) and saw Sydney FC vs New Zealand knights in Aussie stadium...sydney lost 1-0 and NZ are bottom of the league...we reckoned it was a similar standard to Bristol City...absolutely dire! The best bit was that NZ had rather alot of Barmy Army fans who had made the trip from NZ - or maybe the pub down the road! Good atmosphere etc
Monday i met the nailsea boys down at Bondi for a couple of hours before we headed into town that night for Mossy's birthday. Went to a funky bar underneath the Opera house as well as a few other places afterwards... a funny night topped off by henners knocking a table of drinks all over himself, Time to go boys!
Tuesday i had a quiet daytime before going to the 20/20 match. Sanders had found me a pair of tickets very kindly so Elisha joined me as Ben was busy with work....great...i had to sit next to an aussie in another game in which we were an embarassment! Did have to take my hat off to the aussies batting, they were superb to watch! Met up with sanders afterwards and had a few beers in Darling harbour which was cool!
Yesterday i got a bus into town and bought some postcards (sorry not all of you will get one ok) and sat in the botanical gardens overlooking the harbour and the opera house. 4 lovely girls sunbathing on the grass had not made my mind up to sit where i did, it was purely the scenery and surroundings!Honest!
This morning me and ben got up at 6am and went sea fishing with Matt and Andrew on andrews boat. We called it a day after 6 hours and only 10 fish, none of them keepable! Though my 1st aussie fish was a real fighter - all 4 inches of it! Did laugh (and cry) when matty cast off and let go of his rod so he had to dive into the sea to get it before it sank, in the process losing his sunnies and mobile phone! good start to the day!
Tomorrow Gareth gets here and then the 2nd half of my trip begins! After the weekend here in sydney we'll head on up to Byron bay and my other cousin Sam will no doubt look after us and make sure we behave! Really looking forward to it!
Cheers for now
