This Sunday arvo at Bended

No such pub in Geelong anymore.

[Shell]

[cats_09]

Geelong Hotel now

But originally it was the Corio Hotel

 

[cats_09]

Shell - what date is Friday?

The Geelong Hotel is closed from New Years Eve to Jan 3rd to give our hard working staff a much deserved break! We’d like to take this time to thank all our wonderful customers for a fantastic 2019 and hope to see you in the new year! #happynewyear

 

[Shell]

I dont understand.. that doesnt affect us, we're meeting on the Sunday.... ?

 

[cats_09]

Ignore me then - I've lost it

 

[The rabbi]

Ignore me then - I've lost it

So I am not the only one who is getting old and senile.

 

[Shell]

* 1.30pm this Sunday.


Roof top- for lunch and/or drinks.

 

[winty]

Something I ate last night mustn't have agreed with me, as I've been having the runs all night, so it's probably best I don't come this arvo.

So disappointed - was looking forward to meeting up with you guys too.

 

[Shell]

Bah this weather is sh*t too- yeah look I might just drive home now, sorry guys.

If you ever up in Melbs give me a holler yeah.

 

[cats_09]

Watch it be perfect weather by 1:30 now,

 

[Shell]

No!!!!

I reckon i did the right thing tho- a tonne of ppl would be going back to work tomorrow i'd reckon so the traffic will be bad later. I had a good run home this morning- like really good.

 

[cats_09]

No rain in Geelong, sky is clearing, kinda cool but looking better than this morning

Glad you made it home safely - better to have taken the open window to do so than caught in sh*t later

 

[Shell]

Yeah no dickheads on the road either- no tailgating nothing, is staggering actually.

 

[The Unforgiven]

Shell I have looked at my work schedule for the year. The games I am home for will be against GWS, West Coast both at KP, while I'll be attending the Port game at AO if anyone wants to make the trip over.

I'm also very keen to make it to the Round 23 game versus the Crows. It's always interesting from the perspective of a Geelong supporter living in South Australia. If I can get the time off work, I'll be over for that one, too!

Cool as.

If we're going to make finals tho, wouldnt it be better to hold off and come over for a final instead???

Up to you tho..

Up to you tho..

The last Cats game I got to attend was a final and I wish I'd gone to a H&A fixture instead.

Forget the performance issues of recent times, it's just a miserable atmosphere imo. And everything becomes way more of a pain and more expensive for you to get this non-benefit, too.

Up to you tho..

The only final I'll miss will be the first final. I'll be home for the majority of September, including the Grand Final. I'll definitely be over for a Finals match, should be make it.

I've got a new misso now and she's another Crows supporter (lol) and it's her birthday close the weekend of the Crows game. I figure a footy match and a long weekend down the Great Ocean Road would be fitting.

For a final, really? Which game?

 

[Landgraft]

For a final, really? Which game?

EF vs Melbourne. Way too many people taking a game of football way too seriously and being dicks.

I had more fun watching GWS v Hawthorn in the snow last year.
