Two memorable sporting events this week

The first and it cannot go without a mention is that my beloved Spurs thumped the reigning Champions of Europe 3-1 in a classic night of European action at White Hart Lane. I know several people who were there including 2 of my brothers and all are still in shock that our team can have played so well. To have played Inter Milan off the park with a superb display of attacking football. My only upset was that I wasn't physically there to share in the passion and the excitement. Nothing in this world can really match this sort of event.

The other memorable moment is more personal and no doubt some would regard as being quite sad. I played my best round of golf since being here in Oz. i.e. in over two years. Was 8 over for 41 points and finished 2nd out of 95 starters. Worth a few dollars in the sweep, but don't tell Debi. This Thursday night got to the first Twilight golf of the summer season. 9 holes after work followed by a nice dinner with 80 other players. Got 18 points so exactly on handicap.

Just back from Jamie's Kanga Cricket on a Friday night, so the wine is now uncorked and off we go again for the weekend....
