3 States in 3 Days


Well this weekend saw me travel from Brisbane to Canberra, Canberra to Sydney and back to Brisbane. All in the name of seeing the Broncos play in the grand final. When the offer came I couldn't refuse. It had been 6 years since the Broncos were in the final and I wasn't going to wait another 6.

I flew into Canberra and stayed with Chris on Friday night. It was the first time I had been since the Grade 12 ski trip which needless to say was some years ago. We went out and had a few drinks where I met a guy who is doing public affairs down there. He introduced me to another guy who gave me the email address of the chief of staff for the Primeminisiter- go straight to the top I say!

Sunday was the big game. After some dodgey Yum-Cha we went off to the pub before the game. Jeff and I were the only Brisbane supporters amongst the group of 9 so needless to say we coped alot. But I remained strong and everytime they said you're going to loose all I said was are not. It's amazing how much power is in those two little words. Needless to say the game was amazing, of course even more so because we won. But we were 6 rows back from the field and I can testify to the fact JD Fortune from INXS is a very hot man!

Monday I woke up exhausted after the whirwind the weekend was. But it was all worth it. The Broncos had won and I had Haigh's chocolates and Krispy Kreme dounts to take home to the work kids. Go Broncos!
