Well, that’s it. My Tigers have just lost the last game of the year by a point. We’ve come so close so many times this season but that one hurt, especially with Wayne Campbell retiring.

All in all I’m impressed with my boys this year. So many games we’ve come back where in previous years we would just have given it all away. They now try no matter what the odds stacked against them and this new found confidence is wonderful for us long suffering Tiger fans. Come next season Nathan Brown and David Roden will be back on the ground and this will make a huge difference. The boys will take a lot from this year and 2006 and beyond are looking grand for those who love their Yellow and Black.

Now though, it’s time to move the sporting focus to hockey with season 2005/2006 just a little over a month away I’m already salivating over the thought of my Canucks playing off for the Stanley Cup.

Hi anybody still reading, sorry for the long break on this one but we’ve busy over on Albert and I’ve developed a real compulsion for putting photos of Bert up on Flickr.

Aside from this there is on very important thing I have learnt over the past week. We are definetly more Bert people than Kerri-Anne.

Here we go folks, pictures.

They are hosted on Flickr.

Just for those not in the know, blogging may be a little quiet here over the next few weeks.

If you want to know why have a look at Albert.

Back soon.

My boy. 2 hours old.

I’m going to sleep now, then there will be more pics and the story.

Trying to coax the baby out with a cheap meal at the local.

And if that doesn’t work we’ll watch the DVD of Deliverance that Rae gave me today. That should scare the little sucker out.

“There could possibly be two.”

Or something along those lines.

With only three rounds to go Rob and Marita are both on 98 in the footy tipping competition – which presents me with a problem. What do we do in the case of a draw? I seriously doubt we could ever find another prize with such, um, character as The Urn.

As I’m the one running this comp though I may have to decide that, if Rob does end up in a tie, he is ineligible on the basis it’s obvious he couldn’t have picked the Tigers every week so he doesn’t deserve The Urn. Then again, maybe that means he does.

I really love Cold Chisel’s Flame Trees.

I also love that Style Council’s ‘Shout To The Top’ comes after it in my iTunes.

That’s all.
