Saturday at the footy - and meeting up with some old faces

I got a phone call this morning from John Leahy, an old friend who now lives in the USA and has come back to Bendigo for a visit. He invited me to meet with him and Gary Marchioni, another old friend and go to a football match at Strathfieldsaye. We went there in the afternoon and watched the game between Eaglehawk and Strathfieldsaye. The game wasn't so great, Eaglehawk won fairly easily. It is only the second local match I have ever watched.

I also ran into a few old faces from my past. Ray and Wendy Pilcher were there as was Graham Milner, from Mildura who I have not seen for a while. It was interesting to catch up with some old faces.

My first world cup blog

This is my first blog for quite a while. I really haven't done very much since I completed the Connect Church Website. Except for watching the world cup. I have had a few early mornings and I am occasionally getting very tired. I will be glad when it is over.

But today I joined a Gym for the first time in several years. I signed up at the YMCA gym in Eaglehawk. I decided to go there because there is no big upfront fee. I can pay fortnightly fairly easily. I really do need to lose weight. I hope to be much trimmer by Xmas.

The Shiraz club met again, this time at Kevin Furness house. We watched a video "Luther". It was really good. It was a great night even though there were only 4 of us there. Kevin and Jenny are going to Darwin tomorrow for a week's holiday.
