Calling all fantasy footballers (association and rugby)

I'm keen on getting a few leagues together for the RWC and the Premierleague this year. Those in the FSA will remember the good league we had going and reckon we should use the same site (premierleague.com). All those in DASA (both current and ex) - take a look at the site if you haven't already - rules are tops and it's free to play with the added bonus of creating mini-leagues.

As for the RWC, Heineken are running one with the same rules as Guinness did 2 years ago for the 6 nations (anyone who played that will remember that it was a good site) and there's also a couple of others such as testrugby.com or fantasyrugby.com.

I'll probably jack some leagues up and invite you all but if people have already done so let us know and I'll join in and spread the word!

BIRTHDAY!!

Last week I turned the grand old age of 27. Thanks to everyone who wished me a happy birthday and bollocks to those who didn't!! Did the whole family thing on the actual day and went to a great restaurant in West Perth called Julios (highly recommend the rack of lamb with a nice Chianti). Also had a couple of mates round on Saturday before heading out into Northbridge where I managed to come home with a football at 4am, where I promptly talked bollocks to my parents for half an hour. Why they didn't hang up on me I don't know! Tool also had a drunken call and either the Bunny was ignoring me or didn't hear his phone, but he narrowly escaped it also. Couple of pics on Facebook can be accessed through http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=9500&l=6d9f7&id=576745795 In the mean time, here's a pic of me looking foxy below... Well, grinning like an idiot at least!! Also, for those of you who may not know, I'm pretty much likely to be out here until the end of 2008/early 2009. Work are going to sponsor me to allow me to stay in the land of milk and honey (or is that beer and honeys?) for a max of 4 years but I can apply for residency after 2 years of being in the country. They're also going to make me part of the senior team within the next couple of months or so meaning things are going well indeed. Finally, there's a possible business venture that I may be getting involved in soon - got lots of details to sort out on that one but will keep you all posted!

R.I.P. Bethan Harris 1991-2007

Some very sad news for you all. My aunt and uncle's dog, Bethan, passed away yesterday. She will be sorely missed by all.

Busy weekend for birthdays

I couldn't be bothered to send all those who's birthday it was this weekend a personal text message so I thought I'd just post it up here instead! Happy birthday to Dan Rose on Saturday, Danny McGowan on Sunday and Tom Newman today (9th)!! More importantly, it's my birthday next week, so for all of you who haven't sent me a card with $100 notes stuffed inside you've still got time! All donations will go to my beer fund... Congrats also to Wilcey for getting a new job at Ernst & Young - the man has now sold his soul to the devil... Only kidding - well done mate!
