the birm*

Just like spinkwee river…

We (tom, doorbell and bec) went to the soccer (football) Friday night to see the local Jets take on Adelaide. Soccer’s not really had that many spectators and is a lot less popular that footy (rugby league), but there were still 10 thousand people there. We got free tickets, which was even better. We were sitting 2 rows from the field, in line with the 18yd line. The game was pretty good, a good show and exciting, though the locals went down 2-1 in the end.

The reason it reminded me of a certain birthday celebration at spinkwee river in the mourne mtns in norn iron, is cause of the weather. It rained, and rained and rained. So we were sitting, soaked and loving it, enjoying the show, the food and each other’s company. It was unreal, we were soaked but warm (wearing some waterproofs) but still just sat there and hang out. Love it!
