Summer in London

Summer to me is beach, sun, sand, Glenelg, thongs and a tan. This year in London summer has taken on a whole new meaning.





Yesterday was glorious, and not just in London terms. The sun was shining all day and there was not a cloud in the sky. (see above for proof!)

The day was pre planned Winter to me is all of the above with a subtle difference - Aussie Rules Footy. On this fine August day in London, two worlds collided.

The local derby. 23rdclash of the titans. Crows v Power.
If you have been keeping tabs on the London life 007, you will see that a few weeks ago we purchased Setanta, who have the rights to play AFL games in London. Yesterday was no exception. We got to see the game LIVE! (Albeit 10:30am ball up)

Port vying for 2nd place and the Crows waining in the bottom 8, it was possibly not going to be the prettiest game for the croweaters.

How were we wrong (and not for one minute did I think anything less from the back to back champions. Game was a tab scrappy due to the wet weather, however a good opportunity to teach the token Kiwi and Poms a lesson in life (ah SA life that is).


To commemorate the event and pay homage to our Aussie Rules day, we did snags in bread with dead horse, followed by some random Oz Shop purchases. Coopers Pale, Cheezels, Burger Rings and Kingston bikkies. Unfortunately for Rez, her team didnt win on the day but everything happens for a reason. This gives the Crows a possible glace toward the finals. Hopefully we will have the opportunity on the last Saturday in September, to meet once again in this fashion.

After all the excitement, we moved on to Greenwich Park to celebrate this sunny occasion. Kash and Jon turned up, we threw the Frisbee and went home to continue - Karaoke singstar style!

The usual suspects!
