I rate both my kids being at school.
Have caught up with the missus for coffee yesterday and lunch today.
Breaks the workday up, no doubt.

No, nothing like that...yet.

Meeting in public places? I thought paying $50 for a six pack was the silliest thing I'd heard you had done.... ;)

With a surname that has the word 'legend' in it, you'd expect him to know what he's on about.

Mate, you haven't heard the half of the silly shit I've done.
Clumsy was a word used to describe me recently. ;)

Not to sure to be honest but apparently the whole time is spent doing work experience for Real Madrid and also includes listening to lectures from the Manager which at present is Zinadine Zidane (obviously that can change pretty quickly.

Would be pretty awesome despite them being such a despicable club. Zou Zou is brilliant, hope they stick with him for awhile

Regardless of what you think about the team/organisation it would be a once in a lifetime opportunity to get on the inside and hear the manager speak. So jealous!

Make sure you sneak in a selfie with zidane!

Saturday night at the Grand for the 17th Wedding anniversary.

The Grand, meh, take it or leave it as far as the accommodation goes, especially for what you pay.

Pantai Thai in the Glenelg Pier Hotel, dinner Saturday night - Pretty good, see review in restaurant thread.

The Moseley, lunch Saturday ( as above )

The Grand Buffet breakfast, Sunday ( as above )

Nice relaxing night, swim in the pool Saturday arvo and Sunday morning, Mrs Boon was even ok with an hour in the Jetty Bar watching a couple of races Saturday afternoon ( she's a keeper ) and stroll along the foreshore / Jetty Road Saturday night. A couple of drinks either side of dinner, in the Grand Bar before dinner and then in Horizons Cocktail Lounge after dinner. Funny spot that one, nice big Chesterfield leather lounges, plush carpet and curtains, two guys playing guitars and singing and then people in short and thongs sipping on cocktails. Odd, nice, but odd.

Oh, a kudos to the young couple at around 9:30 Saturday night sneaking a quick one in behind the bins next to the Beach House. Quality. :lol:
