A.F.L fo me in the U.K

Setanta Sports
This weekend was quiet, mostly spent at home listening to the rain bucket down in this so called summer. I did my normal channel flicking to make sure there was nothing we were paying for in our Sky package that we were missing out on.
I came across the Setanta Sports package blocker. A few months ago we discussed whether it was worth it to spend more money on something that was a waste of money to start with (Think crappy Celicas). Giving it a chance, we did some online research into Setanta Sports who hold the rights to show Aussie footy. Due to a crappy website and the lack of being able to make sure that AFL and premiership pommy footy was being showed on a regular basis, we chucked in that idea... For just a few months.
Yesterday we had more determination (or was that desperation?).
After yelling at the website for its inability to take me to more than 2 screens to 'subscribe online for the cheapest price' and the 1 month free deal, I called them on the PHONE! (shock horror)

Maybe it was the Glasgow events of the weekend, but I thought the Scots were supposed to be a friendly bunch?
Anyway, Greg says 'we are having an issue with the website'.
AGAIN!?(man they should get that fixed after 3 months) but its the same price and the free month is out of affect. Oh well, we opted for the go ahead anyway.

About 20mins later, I feel like im home - AND ITS WINTER THERE - the AFL is on my teev! K and I watched the majority of our first AFL game in the UK - Sydney v Geelong - at Skilled Stadium (Geelong home ground - Geelong reminds J of Schlong he he)
Sydney didnt win, but the weather there was much like here (well its Victoria for gods sake!) and K got a taste of AFL for the future.
Next week - Go you Crows! woo hooooooo
