Australian Womens Ice Hockey - Sheffield 2007

And some other pics I forgot to post....I went to sunny Sheffield to watch the Aussie girls kick some butt in the Div 3 competition. Unfortunately Lisa was not there, but I still took a few 100 pics, so will give them to Lisa when I come home in June.

GOLD!!! GOLD!!! GOLD!!! GOLD!!! GOLD!!! GOLD!!!

Here are some random pics from the collection I have!!!!

Another forgotten photo ... the FULL lunar eclipse

Well, I got home and almost forgot... but remember just before the complete eclipse had taken place so after much much much mucking around, finally got a half decent photo! Was not going to stay awake for another couple of hours to get more pics on the ending eclipse as it was already 1am.

Feb snow fall.....yes I know.... I forgot to put up the pics!

It snowed for 2 days in the mornings...I caught this photo out of my room in the morning (7am) before it all turned to slush with the cars....

What was supposed to be a night at the theatre....

Well, we all thought we would be very civilised and go out to the theatre last sunday afternoon, however much to our shock, the west end theaters are closed on sundays..... :( so Niree, Laura and Al went drinking, Bern and I joined in later on in the evening and Tom was not far behind us. We went to Covent Garden.

Then after we a bite to eat at Waggamamas, we headed to the Walkabout (Australian pub) for a drink or 3 before they closed at 10:30....

The red drink is a snakebite (1/2 beer, 1/2 cider and some flavour i can't remember....lethal!)

While we were taking this photo, what did we spot across the street, but a uni-cycle chained up to a lampost, so what else are you meant to do....but try it out!

Then, we tried out how well 5 people fit in a "red phone box" ... typical London sight!

Then of course, an amusing tube ride home....

St Patricks Day 2007 - Day 2

Well, saturday morning started off with the normal shower and spray painting of my hair bright green. As you can guess, I got a few odd looks in the resteraunt of our nice hotel at breakfast.

We then caught the bus into central Dublin. After going to the Guinness factory (http://www.guinness-storehouse.com), we caught a horse ride back to the bar district of Dublin (cause it was raining and we got ripped off the previous night in a cab). "Gluestick" provided us with an entertaining ride.

(The reason I am wearing different clothes in this pic is because we actually visited the Guiness factory on Friday, however due to the incredibly long line, we went back on Saturday!)

Drinking in the bar on the top of the Guiness factory. It was quite a nice view over Dublin, the sun was getting ready to set and they had some good irish music playing.

The partying then continued at a bar in Dublin (somewhere called Turks Head)

Then, just a quick photo out of the plane window on Sunday as we flew out of Dublin.....

St Patricks Day 2007 - Day 1

Well, until now, not much mayhem has hit....but now it was time for our little outing to St Patricks day (Venue: Dublin)!!!

Well we were up at 3am. airport at 6 and in dublin by mid morning on the Friday. Since we were all very worn out, we decided to do a little sightseeing and take it easy. One of the places we went was Dublin Castle.
