This is where we lost the Ashes *sob.

The Old Oval Stand

I went to The Oval to watch the AFL Game between Freo Dockers & West Coast Eagles. Since it was an exhibition match, you can tell they didn't really give a sh*t!! But after 2 years of not watching footy, that kinda didn't matter. Its not quite the same as going to Subi Oval - I really do miss going to the footy with the olds.
I had a few drinkies on Friday night at a pub just outside Liverpool St. Strangest pub atmosphere ever... Suits til 8pm and Essex after 8pm. Surely there are pubs in Essex? Anyways it was nice catching up with Dave & friends. After the footy Sat, I went and crawled into bed and didn't venture out again until Sunday.. Coming down with a bit of a sniffle that Phil had recently (thanks Phil). Did some cooking for the Belgies (Phil's friends were visiting) but that was energetic as it got.
Funny Phil's friends commented that last time, they could barely walk into his apartment (or room that he was renting) and they ate tesco ready meals. This time, they had an apartment with use of a pool, spa and steam room, not to mention a 3 course meal cooked for them (as well as English breakfasts and freshly brewed coffee)... what a difference a women makes hey?
Last but not least, I booked a weekend to Estonia in January next year. We are flying to the lovely Tallinn with EasyJet for the bargain price of £40 and found a 3 star hotel with their new hotels site for £120 for 3 nights. W00t! £100 weekend break. Now that isn't too bad.
