@GezzaP Hello lovely. How’s your day are you? Good afternoon. I’ve just managed to get myself on the forums.

What’s the day like for you?

Morning @REDLINEZ750 ...big sleep in today. Shocking! Lol. Sunday's are pretty chill for me. I go to gym, then we have a roast for tea. My daughter comes over for that. I have one of my sons still living at home, and he's a great cook too.

I usually do a bit of work prep for Monday, get my client list together and resources. I'm a counselor/psychotherapist.

As for the lovely Casper, the poor baby. We joke he might have an ABI, or think he's a dog....we aren't sure. Even as a kitten at the rspca, he just sat there while all his brothers and sisters did their best cuteness act to be picked. I felt sorry for him, because he looked so confused even then. I guess I have a soft spot for the misunderstood 😊❤️. Hope everyone Sunday brings rest and restoration!

Hey there @heartathome ,

Sounds like you have a lot on your plate and give a lot of your energy to others! 🤗 Don't forget to to give some of that love and kindness to yourself as well. Gotta fill the cup before you pour lovely! 😍🌹

I hope you can get a cat soon! And that your son is well ❤️‍🩹

I’m fine thanks @Cuddlebear . I went for a walk to local shop, watered garden and went for another walk. Had a slow read of paper and then an early lunch so I can watch women’s AFL this afternoon. Knowing me I’ll snooze, but my team is playing so don’t want to snooze during that game.

Hope your day is ok.

Yes @Mustang67 I have been to several games live.?” Drove over to Melbourne for a Crows final once they won. Before AFL I went to every SANFL Glenelg game back when I was young. Still go sometimes especially finals. They are much cheaper to go to. I watch a lot of AFL on kayo streaming. I used to have fox which was great for sport when I was working.

@GezzaP I have never been to a SANFL match, but I used to follow North Adelaide. And i mean that very loosely. I was only a teenager when I lived near the district and really, I would only pay attention to the score on the news and that was it. Lol

But my previous partner that played rugby would play at the Thebarton Oval and I think it used to cost around $12 to get in, which as you said is a lot cheaper than when the big boys play,

There was so much hype in Adelaide when the Crows' won. I remember that cars everywhere had their crows' scarfs hanging out the window, or the people in the car were singing the club song at the top of their voice. I had never seen the town like that before, it was great. I heard the club song so many times, that I still know most of the words.

We have Kayo as well. We mainly got it so we can watch the V8 Supercars and now we can watch the rugby as well, and the darts. Enjoy the rest of your day 😊

This year I went in the AFL footy tips at my partners work, which meant that I watched about 90% of the games this year. There was an added bonus with that, in being my partner would watch it with me, so I actually got to spend more time with him than i usually would. So, I was happy about that. And the best bit was that really, I didn't know anything about the teams or how they have been travelling and I finished 24th out of 61 people, and my partner finished 58th. So now I have bragging rights. Lol

@Mustang67 ooh mangoes and cream! I don't normally shop at woollies but there is a store on the way to my Coles. I might have to pop in. I'll have to try them and then dispose of them, or eat all of them before tomorrow as tomorrow is D Day for me (Diet day!)

Maybe I'll give them to my bro to share with his workmates. If I get them I'll let you know if they are worth it.

I'm not a huge Tim Tam fan really. I know, it's a terrible thing to admit but there are other biscuits I prefer.

I do however love mangoes.

Hi @Goldy71 Good to see you on again! Thanks for the tag! They're always so nice to get. I saw a picture of one of your cat's. I can't remember his name, but his look made me laugh. 😆 I had a cat with the same attitude. Don't f*** with me but when it suited her, she'd be really affectionate. Typical cat story!
