Footy

On today's ride, stopped for a little lunch (seemed to be french fries soaked in grease rather than cooked in oil) at a game of Footy - I believe that's Australian Rules Football. I'm not sure what was going on - there was running, some tackling, a lot of kicking (punting in American style football), and there were an awful lot of people on the field - I believe about 18 per side. Wasn't too crowded, though, since the field appeared to be about the size of a typical 18 hole golf course.

I was surprised to flip on the telly just in time to hear that some guy was going to sing the national anthem before a horse race - and it wasn't Waltzing Matilda! I've been misinformed.
