On this Week

I sat and watched my first AFL Grand Final and saw Richmond Tigers secure 12th club premiership in Grand Final demolition of GWS Giants.

We took the water taxi from Puerto Banus to Marbella where I used to spend time as a child so it holds many great memories.

Day 4175

This Sunday I went for a Sunday brunch Yum Cha at Shark Fin Inn. It was not my usual Sunday morning feed of eggs but it made a really nice change and people were queuing at 11am waiting for them to open.

Day 3455

I went to Madrid to see Manchester City Football Club play Real Madrid at the Bernabeu which is a stadium I have always dreamt of watching a match at. An extra bonus was that the team I support would be playing Real Madrid in the Champions League and it was a game I could not miss.

Day 3087

Last night I went back to Manchester to see Manchester City play Napoli in the first ever Champions League in the borough of Manchester. The club put on an exhibition inside the stadium to welcome the UEFA delegates to Manchester and greeted the Italians with a sign saying benvenuti which means welcome in Italian.

Day 2717

It was like watching a heavy weight boxing match and Manchester City emerged with the 3 points in the bag to kick off my Saturday night. It got even better when both Arsenal and Liverpool dropped points which made the win even sweeter.

Day 2362

I have sent off my passport application so hopefully that will arrive within the next 3 weeks. I imagine it will feel a bit like when Charlie opened up the wrapper to see the golden ticket. Another great weekend from the city boys, the only let down was that Spurs could not hang on for a draw to complete a 7 game accumulator. I walked to the market this afternoon listening to the phone in from the UK and it was all about Emmanuel Adebayor.

Day 1985

I think the reason I am not updating this website as regularly as I used to is all down to FaceBook, although I wish people would stop sending me links to useless applications. There are far to many developers out there with nothing better to do. Last week I reached the final stage of my permanent residency application to Australia, I now need to go offshore to an Australian Embassy to find out if it has been approved. On Monday I am going to fly to New Zealand so fingers crossed I will be back by the weekend as a permanent resident of Australia and only 12months away from my dual passport.

Day 1253

I have just had my first Skype video conference call with my grandpa. The sound was in and out, sometimes it was clear, as if he was stood next to me and the next it starts breaking up. The video picture on the other hand was excellent. I managed to see my grandpa and caught a quick glimpse of my grandpa in your dressing gown.
