It was just like watching Barnsley

Watched the Brazil Italy game yesterday on BBC 3 it was a onesided affair,Italy were not much good and Brazil were their usual delight to watch,I only like 2 teams to beat Italy,one is England ,the other Brazil,I imbibed acouple of small glasses of the special cask whisky bought for mr by gina for fathers day,diluted with water in a 50% of each mix it was still potent,and helped my appreciation of the football.
The computer fairy has been active on our computer but the problem was soon resolved by Andrew,and a stern lecture was given to the computer fairy telling her not to download willy nilly.
Sandra the Pom is saving up to buy some wine for our visit,but really there is no need as I shall be replete with alcohol after two weeks in the west australa outback with "Crocodile Mick" it seems they live on fish which he catches daily from his boats,so the much lauded fish and chips in Queensland might be a bit of a busmans holiday,though I do like a grilled marlin steak ,or swordfish,not a great fan of cod though.
After trying for over a week to obtain an e visa for oz on google,I installed (under supervision from Andy) firefox,and was able to download the visas straight away,I even e mailed the aussie embassy to find out the problem but they were not willing to admit it existed,I did think of reactivating my 40 year old application for assisted passage(ten pound poms) but feared it may upset the aussies and militate aganst my being granted a visa.
The strawberry picking took place on three bridge lane and we hardly ate any whilst picking them,as we feared they would weigh us and charge for them,though I am told they were very nice.
