Oh, you mean the GRAND FINAL, margo! Smile I thought you meant THE CUP!
Everyone says it will be between Collingwood & Essendon, so you may not have to leave home. Laughing Anyway, whoever plays whom, it's bound to be very full-on! I think you're very brave to even contemplate it! Very Happy

You SAID that you would go to the medicos, but you haven't, have you?

Olga - I'm only even considering it because my almost 80-year-old dementing aunt is desperate to go. I took her to the big Swans - Collingwood match the other week at Olympic Park. A bloody nightmare. I suspect that this is her last chance.

And the cost will be hideous - air fares, hotels, cat sitting - but she'll probably pay all that! Must wander off and see if the Lions beat the Crows. The winner will be playing the Swans next week at Olympic Park for a berth in the grand final! So it can't be Collingwood v. Essendon. Do you support a team? Confused

Gee, sumac, I think the match may be the "rest" cure!

Thanks for your concern, sumac. Very nice of you!
Yes, I did go. The same story: It's a lingering virus which was then causing havoc with my sinus passages & my ears. So this explains why I was dizzy, head achey & feeling a wee bit deaf! No suggestions, though, of how to "cure" the damn thing, of course! Sad
The good news is that I have 2 weeks holiday, starting this coming Friday. Rest! Very Happy

I think getting as far away from the game as possiblr is the most appealing "cure" i can think of! Laughing

Hey Wilso
Do you mean next Saturday night? At Olympic Park (or the final in Melbourne!?) Do you wanna take my aunt? <please Exclamation > Think of it as character building! (I have enough character already!) I'm expecting a couple of friends down from Brisbane.....you could take them too! You'd have my eternal appreciation! I'll go down the coast instead. Twisted Evil

[quote="smokingunne"]A town recently turned city named Lisburn in the Northern part of Ireland. [/quote]

Welcome and have some fun here. The secret to fun is to avoid politics. That way madness lies. (but you probably know that already! )

We're all addicts. Why else would I be here at 5.30am on a Sunday morning! (well - the boss cat insisted I get out of bed, and what else is there at this hour Rolling Eyes ) Razz
