Mini Judas returning to try and stop the Phoenix rising from the dead, to avoid the spoon. Probably quite apt that this game is Easter Sunday then.

Any one got the code for the cheap tickets and is there a limit on the free kids tickets? Planning on shouting my brother-in-law and niece, so thought I might be able to save the booking fee for someone after some extra kids tickets.

Remember too that Trains are being replaced by Buses so get to the ground early!  Or get involved in March to the Match.

 Checklist for the game Sunday:

1. Nixie puppet.

2. Wooden Spoon.

For extra height, insert said spoon into puppet's hole. Also a good way to hide said spoon until it is clear we will be needing them.

What are we doing with wooden spoons?


BDSM?

We will never fully decide who has won the football.

Hmmm.  As its Easter Sunday, we won't be able to buy drinks at the pub without having a meal.  Or am I wrong???

On-licences with a "restaurant" designation and premises that are not therefore a Hotel or Tavern may trade as usual on Good Friday, Easter Sunday and prior to 1pm on ANZAC Day, but this means that alcohol may only be served to persons while the premises are being operated as a restaurant.
Doesn't seem like you have to actually buy a meal, they just need to provide a menu.

I just asked whether Craft is open on Sunday. Was told that they are ONLY open for dining.

Hope that's not the case for all, otherwise I may have to peruse the menu for quite a period of time!

Buy one meal. Eat half of it. Keep the other half of the meal on the table for the next four hours so you are still 'dining'.
