This weekend the Notre Dame is reopened to the public. And don’t the pics look magnificent?
So many years of soot and grime have been removed from the parts of the structure that remained after the devastating fire of only five years ago.
I for one did not think it could be rebuilt, certainly not in the time frame they initially announced.
But the crazy barstards did it!
We visited back in 2015 and the place was dark and gloomy. Though full of magnificent artefacts and stunning architecture. I’m a non believer, but the place still moved me. From the pictures I see now the place is totally transformed.
My wife is also extremely proud as the spire was rebuilt in the city of her birth!
If ever you get the opportunity, pay a visit. Believer or not, the place is simply a wonder of the world.

I’ll be there in 3 weeks. I’ll let you know if they’ve done a good job.

AI still got a way to go. I asked it to draw a magpie holding the AFL premiership cup on the MCG and got this.

Thanks for clarifying, when I first saw this sort of post I thought it must be some sort of scrambled message that the posters were using as a challenge to decipher.

Was driving home from the South Coast of NSW today and stopped at Braidwood for a coffee (and to check out the local book fair). Waiting for my coffee on the outdoor deck and who walks past? Nathan Buckley! As a sheltered Canberra supporter not used to seeing my footballing heroes I just said "Bucks!" 😂 As he came up the outdoor seating and walked past my seat he said "G'day mate, how you going?" Made me realise how much of a Collingwood legend he is.

Ok, so I was there just after Xmas. The crowd and queue was vast.
Entry is free BUT you still have to reserve your entry with a “ticket” purchased online. Easy? Not.
Tickets are only released for the two coming days currently. Despite trying many times, no luck.
I think congestion is made worse as the sides and garden at the rear of ND are boarded off. So you can’t easily do a lap and admire it. Oh well. Just a reason to go back. IMG_0303.jpeg

Just bought a new car…rego ( random, not personalised) should be easy enough to remember.

It consists of two numbers representing my birthday, two letters being letters in my first name…

And two other letters being BW.

Go pies.

So.... AFL are pre-selling seating for the first 6 games next week on Tuesday at 2pm. Looked at my calendar and saw that I have a specialist appointment at 1.30 in the city. Panic!

Rang doctor's office up to change time and explained why.

Enough said, both the doctor and his office manager are Pie supporters, she was able to rearrange appointment. :)

Make sure you give them a 5 star rating on Google after the appointment

Is there a memorabilia buy, swap and sell thread that I can't find? Feel like it would be a good addition.
I've got a 2002 swooping magpie guernsey that I'm struggling to find others elsewhere online. Was curious as to the value of it.

Thanks
 
Have found myself listening to a bit of Billy Bragg. Probably because I’m pissed.

Really hope the world can turn away from the facists.

Can’t believe we are back here. Our grandfather’s fought against this shit.
