Been a huge weekend for the KaneMan household. The AFL grand final always marks the start of the crazy time of year and the weekends start to fill up with BBQ's, Parties, and all other events (Spring Racing Carnival, Christmas Gatherings and the like).
This weekend enjoyed some Formula 1 live from Suzuka, Japan - one of the very few races that we get to watch in the middle of the day rather than the usual 10pm race start, midnight race finishes that we get accustomed too for the European stretch of the calendar.
Saturday night was Issey's bucks party which saw plenty of Meat, Beer, Poker and Playstation Racing taking place.
I didn't fair so well in the poker tourney, always tough when there are newbies betting on everything and getting more than their fare share of luck. Not to worry as the follow up poker games were alot more fun and playing for more than just a plaque ;) Took out the game that counted!
Plenty of racing on the full wall projector with the racing seat wheel setup was a lot of fun, even if the sight of bung leg man trying to get in and out was not pretty haha.
Today enjoyed a quiet recovery watching the Suzuka Formula 1, Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel got a much needed win to keep the chase alive.
Following the Formula 1 was the Ruby, Melbourne Storm vs Parramatta Eels. Storm played a great first half before the Eels showed some fighting spirit and made it a great contest in the second half. Storm held on for a gutsy 23-16 victory.
Well the body must adjust to this stupid thing called daylight savings, my one week of seeing some sunshine in the morning has come and gone and the return of darkness in the mornings is upon us. Hopefully a quiet week ahead before another crazy weekend approaches.
