Cracking open a bottle of 2014 Martinborough Pinot.

Well that was a glorious afternoon / evening.
The pub had a dodgy feed that kept freezing but given the games weren't close it kind of added to the fun - lots of "oohhhhhhh"'s and "yeeeaaaahhhh"'s as we froze then caught up.
There were about 15 kids there for the early game, most wearing Australian / Irish / English supporter kit, each of them glued to phones and iPad's. Most buggered off home after the Australia game.
My lad was decked out in his AB kit and sat at the corner of the bar for both games, watching every second of the footy - didn't ask for his ipad or phone once. He even had a few sips of my beer with the observation "that's quite nice".
Never been so proud.

Despite drinking all the IIPAs and then opening a bottle of shōchū I feel remarkably good.
That would be the same bottle I was gifted in Japan and told my wife she couldn't open after finishing her sparkling as her palate wasn't clean...
Her this morning when she noticed

I'm killing time until I do it all again. Use yesterday's bonus bets on country racing. Stubbies. Then 2 games of footy.
Mrs Mariner flies our for work at lunchtime so at some point today I'll have to parent though

Same same, I'm solo from 2pm this avo til Friday night. I'll be taking a light touch to the role today. Kids can entertain themselves with a movie while i watch the game replay, then I'll spend a couple of hours in the kitchen cooking up few meals with a bottle of red.
Looking forward to 2 games of quality code tonight with no stress.
Working from home tomorrow.
Start worrying about England about Wednesday I reckon.

I slept like a fucking baby last night, after being grizzly at the family all day yesterday. Knockout tension

Liverpool ruin what could have been a perfect weekend
Taipans smash the Wildcats in Perth
BOP smash Manawatu in their semi
ABs smash Ireland through to a semi
Couple of hundred up on the punt.Liverpool winning at Old Trafford would have been gravy
