Re: All Things Sport...

Been at my sister's for a couple of hours helping her pack and get things for the move @Scarecrowe Toby came for a trip to Bunnings with us - he loves being wheeled around in the trolley. 

 

I love my tennis - one of my favourite sports. If it is a decision between test match cricket and tennis then tennis would usually win (especially if the Aussies are playing). Have the test match on now - hope our openers can stay in to stumps and put some runs on as well.

 

Being over run by 2 flies again this afternoon - not blowflies this time but they seem to want to annoy me all the same. Maybe the blowfly from the other day put out a call to these little buggers to come and annoy me ...little do they now that Mr.Spray is close by and if they do not follow my instructions and leave out the window or door then they will join their blowfly friend at the big feast in the sky ...entirely their choice lol

Re: All Things Sport...

I can see Toby being driven around in a trolley lol

 

I tried to get into watching tennis but just can't enjoy it that much for some reason.   People say to me 'you love watching cricket but not tennis.  Cricket is way more boring than tennis'.    Lol.   

 

Burns needs a good score this innings for sure.  Let's hope they both kick on.

 

And a great day in test cricket today:  Jane McGrath day.  Great to see all the pink.  It is one charity that I give to every year as I think they do a great job with the breast care nurses.  And also do it for two loved ones that lost their lives to breast cancer.  And who is to say that one day I or someone who I love may need the support of a breast care nurse.  

 

Oh yes another one of @Zoe7 's fly stories.........Smiley Very Happy

 

 

Re: All Things Sport...

The pesky flies have either disappeared to another room or resting before their next attack LOL - sneaky litte buggers Smiley Tongue

 

I have always loved tennis more than cricket but I find many of the modern day players a little boring to watch. There is a much greater serving and power game and much less finesse and rallies. I also do not like the attitude of some players (including some Australians) and much like cricket (and football) I think they are well over payed. If even just 10% of that money was put into housing our homeless or feeding families on the poverty line then we would have a much smaller problem.

 

The only reason I would want either Warner or Burns out is to bring on Labuschagne - love watching him play. The pink test has done so much for breast cancer - so many more nurses being employed and as a result so many women suffering have that extra support - it certainly is a worthwhile cause and Yes one that has touched so many lives and will continue to do so.

Re: All Things Sport...

@Former-Member I'm on your Sixers to run down this total tonight. Goodluck Hon Heart

Re: All Things Sport...

@Former-Member Thought your Sixers could chase that down tonight - well done to your team Hon ...especially Phillipe - a great innings.

 

My Hurricanes next - need a win to stay in touch with the top teams.

 

Also will be up watching the FA cup in the early hours of the morning. Liverpool play Everton at 3am and it is finally back on Foxtel ...yea!!!

 

@MDT @Scarecrowe 

Re: All Things Sport...

Enjoy @Zoe7
Hope liverpool go well

Re: All Things Sport...

Thanks @MDT Will be a tough one against Everton but hopeful they continue to play as they have been and get the win.

 

How are Swansea going?

Re: All Things Sport...

Not too bad @Zoe7

Could be tbetter could be worse. They won the other day. I think they are about 7th in the EFL. Will be sometime before they are back in the epl methinks.

Re: All Things Sport...

Oh that sucks @MDT - about your password and Swansea Smiley Sad Hope your password works in the morning or at least is an easy fix. Sleep well buddy Smiley Very Happy

Re: All Things Sport...

Its just something to stress over @Zoe7

A littany of dumb things like this every time..

So i will need to go early and see if i need to be in court or not. Then be able to determine if i am elsewhere or not...

All this on the first day back in a job i already hate with people that test my patience.

Sorry i am ranting. Its just that things like this are insignificant and dont need to happen but they do..

Will just have to ring IT tomorrow i guess when i arrive

Night my friend zoe7
