Don't rate his first name of Phoenix though, I just assume he'll be a druggie with a name like that. :?

You ought to rate that they spelled it properly, and not some bastardised phoneticisation like "Feenix".

I'm not usually a KFC fan besides their wicked wings or zinger burger for a hangover but wow, I got one of those $10 for ten pieces of boneless hot and spicy last week and they were the bomb.

The kids and I ended up getting them a few times, they are bigger than I thought they'd be, they are as tender as you can get and there's far more than ten pieces in them it seems.

Totally recommend, great value from KFC for a change.

Given their chosen Greek mythology theme, I reckon Phoenix is pretty good. It has a positive connotation (rising from the ashes), and is certainly preferable to 'Icarus'. ;)

Coached a Junior Prelim final tonight, 2 weeks ago when we played our opponents we got beaten by 81 points, deep into the 3rd quarter tonight we were 2 goals up and missed 3 shots in a row to make it more. Sadly we didn't go on with it from there and got over run in the last 1/4. So bloody proud of the kids though, they bought into the game plan and executed perfectly for 3/4's.

The boys learnt more in tonight's 72 mins of footy than months of training would give them, hard to be disappointed.

Got my veggie patch turned over yesterday morning, turned some horse poo and fertilizer through then planted 4 different types of tomatoes, some capsicum and lettuce for those summer salads, some strawberries for munching on and some corn that'll find it's way onto the BBQ after Xmas.

Worked up enough of a lather to open the swimming season and jumped in the pool, whilst the heat is on at 24° it kinda took my breathe away but by jingo was it refreshing.

Then sat down and nailed some Prison Bar Ale cans, those who have me on socials will see my experiment. ;)

#1 son won his 4th junior flag in 5 years on Saturday, kid has been very blessed, not sure he realises how lucky he is, some kids would kill for one. All 4 wins have been by 20 points or less and could have gone either way. They turned around a 50 point defeat from the 1st final 2 weeks back.

Also rate Mitch Fazekas, from his 51 games he has played in all 5 A grade flags at Flaggy

Have been looking for a new internet provider over the last few weeks becuase I'm sick of Uniti drop outs every time it gets windy.

Get an email from Uniti today, thanking me for my loyalty and upgrading me to 50 download speed (and unlimited data instead of 300GB) for the same price I'm paying now ($45 per month)

Sure, why not! LOL

Got the same, although ours upgraded from 50 to 100. Unlike you we have had a fantastic experience with Uniti, has copped a beating with the teenagers and me working from home 90% of the time now.
