This is my last night in good old Oz for almost 5 weeks - we're off to England, Ireland and Europe for almost 5 weeks in the morning.

While I'm sure we'll have a ball while we're away, I'll certainly miss the trading period rumours, which are always about 10 times more exciting than the actual trades. You know the sort of stuff I mean '"I have it on good authority from my auntie who was told as a dead set fact by the postie when he was bonking her, that we are trading Gallagher and Shirley to the Saints for Reiwoldt and Gherig - and their 1st round draft pick!" :D

If I get a chance, I'll try and sneak off to an internet cafe just to see what's happening - particularly with the Stenglein trade.

Keep up the good work fellas (that includes the female fellas too :D ) and I'll catch up with you all when I get back.

Cheers

Ohh he will get hammered
he he maybe not on Shliva but I rekon the Shlivovitz would probably knock him out :p (you shouldn't have added the brandy at the end, just told him to go and try some shlivovitz ;) )

He knows a fair bit about shlivovitz already;) He admitted to having killed a few brain cells with the stuff in his younger years:p

Re: Catch up with you all in 5 weeks

Have a safe journey & an awesome time Macca. Hopefully you can give me some good tips for when I go across the the same region next year. There are usually plenty of internet cafes around where you get a meal & catch up on BF goss. Got to love the internet!

The Macca23 Maintain The Rage roadshow goes global :D
It certainly has.

Now this is the truth - I said to the West Indian driver on the hop and stop bus around London today "Did you want Neil Craig as coach of the crows?"

His reply "what the fk you talking about, mon?"

As I said to him " that's unbelievable - exactly what I said when I heard he'd been appointed!! :D

Thanks everyone for the kind wishes - catch you all later!!

Re: Catch up with you all in 5 weeks

I'm tempted to rename this the offical Macca23 European vacation thread & make it a sticky ... just so he can quickly locate it when logging in from an internet cafe to provide us with stories of his latest adventures ... & because we are below the minimum standard of sticky's for Jars.
