Oh and fun fact......

We play Diamond Creek tomorrow, and one of the blokes in their line up is an ex crow. From way back to the original squad..... apparently, plays with his son in the team.

I will find out his name & let you know. Has made a shed load of runs in this grade this season.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a mobile mechanic to work on a 60yo car? Not a huge job, but I've run out of time to get to it.

What's the current ruling on fruit? I mix some grapes, watermelon, banana and strawberries in a bowl for my lad to eat on his way to footy, is that breaking the rules? None are home grown.

So, I convinced my motorcycle mechanic mate from around the corner to help last night. I thought the fuel was stale, he thought fuel wasn't getting in to the engine. We (well he did actually) found the needle stuck in the seat in the carby, he was right. My days as a mechanic have come and gone it seems.

How @Magellan has gotten on with his move to Melbourne.

G'day viewers.

So far, so good in Mal-bin. Currently holed up in Richmond in a friend's one bedroom apartment, with both the wife and I working remotely which is tight and pokey (cue puns) but survivable. Enjoying the variety of food and drink purveyors in the Richmond area - for example, had fun on Bridge Road last Friday night which included dinner at a Spanish restaurant and a pricey grog session in a cocktail/spirits bar. The injecting room is up the road a bit, but so far haven't seen much on the dodgy side of things. Went to St Kilda last Monday (public holiday over here) for a sticky-beak, and came to the conclusion that it's a bit shit. Planning to catch up with some ex-Adelaide friends for dinner in Foot-is-gray on Saturday night, and as I lived there briefly about 20 years ago I'm keen to compare and contrast what's there today (from what I'm told - less Vietnamese, and more Africans and apartments).

Weather is rubbish, but the people have been friendly and welcoming. Plenty of pubs and cafes seems to be dog friendly, which suits us, including Moon Dog brewery (BTW, they sell a bourbon barrel-aged peated stout which smells and tastes like it could power a ride-on lawnmower - an awesome drink in the true sense of the word - https://moondogbrewing.com.au/beers/black-lung/).

Anyway, we have just secured a rental place in Carlton North and will move in next Friday, which is exciting, and I can't wait till our stuff comes over so we can finally make a place feel like home. It's a cool spot, walking distance to both of our works (if we ever get to that point) and close to good recreational facilities, coffee, eating, and watering holes. It's also close to Carlton's home ground, so, you know, you can't have everything. ;)

@Corona Man, apologies, and thanks for touching base - we'll catch up soon once we've landed in the new place.

Good to hear Magellan.

Yes I get it, takes a while to get everything sorted.... been here 4 years now, and finally moving into our own home at Easter!

Some good spots where you are too.

Catch up for a well earned beer when you’re settled.

Cheers.
