No, we eat a little later and I am making the boys do their homework first. Then they will get out of the kitchen and onto the computer! Then I will start getting it ready...spaghetti tonight! Sorry for the long explanation.

I prefer comedy orientated movies but usually finish up watching a love story which my wife loves.

I love guitar music, particularly Flamenco, Armik and Ottmar Liebert are my favourites, loved The Three Tenors, and off late have taken a great liking to a violinist called Andre Rieu who brings classical music to the people. Google his name and you'll see what I mean.
What sports are you interested in?

Yes I am but also Australian Rules Football, we're into the finals here.
Did you watch the American Tennis Open on TV? (we received direct coverage of it as Tennis is very big here)

I watched some of it...I really wanted Andy to win - but that was just because he was the underdog...I really like Federer - I think he is an amazing player...glad Henin beat the Williams sisters though. Shame on me
What are the main difference between Australian rules football and American Football?

Australian Rules football is much tougher/harder than Gridiron, your players are protected with helmets, shoulder pads etc ours are not. It's a very spectacular game for only the strongest and fittest guys around, our final late September in Melbourne stops the nation and draws 100.000 spectators to the ground.
We also like Roger Federer and the Williams sisters, you should be proud of them!

They do....soccer, they are okay at it...but they are crackerjacks when it comes to baseball...quite the little players they are. Makes for crazy weeks during baseball season but we have fun watching them all play! Also they are playing flag football right now. That of course is much safer since they are so little - we don't want any broken bones or compromised growth plates! But they love that too...they are their Daddy's boys!
You getting everything done you need to?

No, it's not real big...I'd say 6 x 10 feet.....Just enough for a few tomato plants and a lot of herbs and a few flowers. Can't really handle more than that with three boys and a dog - and a husband that would rather read than help in the yard! LOL...I married an absent minded professor! But those boys will help one day...you better believe it!
How big is yours? Is it mostly veggies or flowers?

Our block is 60 feet wide and 150 feet deep, two large lawns, front and back, plus my veggie garden which is 60 x 20 feet and flower beds. Keeps me fit and out of trouble.
What are the ages of your boys?
