Paxter Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 Rugby?Sorry I missed it fell asleep around 12 and slept right through the ghostrider DVD I boughtRugby? GS get a grip :P. Aussies defeated Ireland last night in an International Rules game in Limerick.Glory just went 1-0 down against Sydney FC :crying:. I hate you Horza.ETA: Fuck that. I just switched the TV off and brought a few Heinekens back to my room. 2-0. :bang: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horza Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 3-0.Hmm. Had forgotten what winning feels like. Quite nice, in case peeps were wondering. McFlynn and Hiro had excellent games and Bruno was utterly dominant but not a particularly strong performance on the whole. Defence was shaky and we still get caught dwelling with the ball in dangerous areas. However, Perth are abject, Paxy. Oldest and most expensive squad in the comp and we ran you into the ground while still looking crap ourselves. But at least the hoodoo is off. And who knows, next week Ange's mob might not open us up like a tin can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GS didn't miss much. Now, the match next weekend...that'll be worth watching. I think we'll clinch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paxter Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 Horza, did I mention that I hate you? Because I do. And, damn, looks like we're missing out on Rooney. I really had my hopes up about that...@ithanos: I hope we're still on for dinner and drinks in a few Fridays' time. That's the day after I finish my last ever exams and I'll desperately need to celebrate/drown my sorrows :cheers:. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How's it looking? I'm thinking of taking the neice & nephew there when I visit next month.hi ithanos!we go to the zoo regulary here (actually, we are booked in to go to roar and snore this summer, so excited! sleep over at the zoo and everything!) and love it. id definately recommend scoping out the activity timeline and making a bee line for some of the shows - the bird show is particulary awesome, but you can also feed girraffes a carrot for 2 bucks. theres also koala cuddling which is more and an aussie zoo section where you actually get in with the animals too. we normally wind our way down and then take the cable car up - def recommend doing hte cable car at some stage. the view of the harbour are pretty stunning at different places around the zoo.yeah theres still some reno's going on but alot of it is finished and it doesnt really take much away from the experience, what theyve done up theyve done a really nice job of. now hopefully you dont have too many other people to share it with....it can get so busy there sometimes :(i believe youre at the wedding on saturday? maybe we can persuade you to revel on afterwards with us!!

Paxter Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Do you mean that movie with Nick Cage in it? Horrible, horrible movie.Agreed ST. But once you get to know GS, you'll figure out pretty quickly that he doesn't really have the greatest taste going around. I mean, seriously, would you trust someone who thought that this was good food?:PETA: Actually to GS' credit he did say that he slept through it, so maybe he isn't all that bad...
