Listening to Podcast to aid the firing up.  Players sounding amped.

End of an era.  Vinnie - It's over.

Kids are still in PJs (school holidays).  I've got eyechart t under stripey on and getting all the other gear ready.  Some of us are taking this seriously, others, well I blame the parents.

Maybe, but it's been so long that I can't remember which gear had good mojo and which didn't, so I had to wash everything earlier in the week.
As a result my kit is all mojo-less.  Sorry, but i couldn't take any chances of bringing bad mojo to the first game.
But I do have a lucky canteen bandana...

ATTENTION PEOPLE OF KAPITI

Keep Calm

To halt the spread of Yellow Fever, it is advised that you should avoid the 1.05pm train/bus to wellington on Saturday 6 October 2012.

Avoid contact with a "portly" behatted individual, sounding like a cross between, David Gahan & the Cookie Monster , also smelling like Vicks Vapour Rub & Sambuca.

All attempts to eradicate this scourge on society,have been deemed, by the Health Department as "Ineffectual"

Thank you for your attention

Carry On!

Pre-match clothes - new yellow self-designed tee - laid out.

Match clothes - VL Stripey and tutu - in a bag.

This is getting serious.

I cannot sit still.

Popped down to Rebel Sports Lower Hutt this morning to grab a new Stripey, and got the last one on display. Girl on the counter said they have been selling a few of them. They still have away shirts left.
