Hey, we got into it anyway:
Trees were 'pruned'
Beer was chilled
Sofa beds were made
Fashion was dubious
Anti Paparazzi masks were donned
Pyro's were studded
Petrol was poured
Fire was born
Supporters were avid
Oops perhaps a little too much petrol!
My 'unimpressed' face - beware little children this is the 'look ' you get when I am not very happy!
And at 4am we watched Australia annihilated by the Germans and Tim Cahill received a red card for such a trivial misdemeanour . . .looks like we'll be barracking for Brasil. Yay, I can wear the same silly hat! Yeh, no apologies, I am a sucker for a stupid hat!
I like the anti-paparazzi mask. Wouldn't it be fun if celebs took to wearing them en masse? The snappers would be VERY frustrated.
ReplyDeleteSo it's a colonial holiday. Still, any excuse for some time off and lounging about, I say.
Well, look the positive side. I gained some points on Germany. There is a website, where you can guess the results of the games.
ReplyDeleteYour beer bottles are weird.
That BBQ sounded like fun, AND all toyboys! You should have sent for me!
ReplyDeleteI'd like to try that beer.
ReplyDeleteThe fashion was véry dubious and some underwear was being adjusted?
ReplyDeleteAnyway, commiserations on the stupid football game result. Nothing that a few extra beers can't alleviate I should think.
(meanwhile, I could hear the neighbours yelling some time ago, so I guess the Dutch have scored a goal. Oh yippee.)
Hmmmm... Interesting clothing you all wear to football rallies. Although still not as weird as US football fans who paint themselves in the team colors.
ReplyDeleteAnd were you glaring at the photographer for daring to snap you, or was the "look" aimed at the final score?
oooo scary face! good call to stick w/ same colors and a team that has them. we don't follow soccer, er, your football over here. some do, I guess. i dunno. Beckham doesn't bend it for me. :)
ReplyDeleteLove your hat!
ReplyDeletetotaly digging the outfits...sounds like a great time...which does help with the sting of the score...smiles.
ReplyDeletehow the hell do YOU rate a dizzy lizzie day and WE do not? we're bloody closer [in both miles and kilometres, anyway] to the olde sodde! :P lol
ReplyDeletenice chapeau!
haha! i do like the hat..now have a beer mom and chill! glad you had a nice weekend.
ReplyDeleteGod Save the Queen...and. The green and yellow weiner hat. You wear ir well!
ReplyDeleteWhere there's fun to be had there's a silly hat.
ReplyDeleteI like the way you spent your weekend... very different from mine.
Bummer about out team and yes thank goodness there are others to cheer for.

ReplyDeletethat photo of you. ooooooooh. i'd best behave.

All kinds of awesome.
ReplyDeleteHelen I *love* the fact that you can wear such a silly-looking hat but *still* exude such a commanding expression!
ReplyDeleteNice hat Baino, really suits you.
ReplyDeleteI love reading about your bonfire/sausage sizzles. The photos always make me laugh.
I ignored the soccer altogether. I realise it's still on and I'm still ignoring it.
I love the way Australians are so loyal, I hear "they're a DISGRACE" everywhere I go today, it's hilarious, but true.
ReplyDeleteI was majorly disappointed with Englands debut too... let's hope we both do better next time!
ReplyDeletehi! I sleap in a sofa bed! I love the pictures. And your face! Lol! I'm working at a childrens camp in the middle of nowhere (sounds suspicious, right?). I really need to share some pictures :)
ReplyDeleteoh that's right, when I was a kid we had bonfires and firecrackers to celebrate the Queens birthday long weekend. Those were the good ol' days except when peoples hands and faces were blown apart by dodgy or careless handling of explosives, petrol and matches.
ReplyDeletemarvelous- big big smile here!!sandy
ReplyDeleteOH, but wasn't the last minute goal from Winston Reid in the New Zealand vs Slovakia game awesome?! :P
ReplyDeleteNothing like a crazy hat to make any moment better :)! Beer and and a good game never hurt either.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind comments to me.
It takes a lot of nerve to wear a silly hat! After a beer or two I can wear one. ha.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the great photos!
Well it looks like a great time, no matter who won! Happy Birthday to Q and good luck Brazil!
ReplyDeleteMAAAAAANNNN! You really know how to party! I just love these party posts of yours. Hahahah! Your soccer fan hat is cool!
