C'mon Aussie C'mon

Glad to see those Poms celebrating too early with the cricket. Because now they feel like real gooses. You never assume you've won the game till the umpire calls stumps! I haven't been able to watch the series with no pay TV. SBS have been televising it on some days but what's the point on a half telecast?

 

In other sports news... glad to see Ice Hockey will get a new season with the NHL and NHLPA finally waking up to their collective selves. Been too long since I watched a match but I might get to follow the NHL more closely this time round. Also hope that EA Sports don't produce a lame arse attempt like NHL 2005 was. Heard that they sacked the guy in charge of that disaster! Since 1991 this was the fisrt year I didn't complete the season in a EA Sports Hockey title. With the Hockey strike on at the moment the timing couldn't be worse for a dud game!

Yet More Wedding Photo's

I promise I'll stop writing about the wedding soon. But there are still pics to go online and I'm still getting over the whole event. Going back to work so soon after festivities is a real reality check but I'm fighting through it. There are still folks out there with some photo's that we need to contact. I'm going to be putting a VCD together to hand out to those who attended with a run down on the day. Also a honeymoon VCD to go with it to fill you all in on how the trip went. So those of you who are bored of hearing about Weddings and Lovey Dove stuff... just tune out till further notice!

Honeymoon Pics Now Online

The Honeymoon is all but a great memory now. It wasn't without it's drama's though with the Gold Coast weather turning on us in a bad way. Coolangatta airport was closed for the first time in approx 30 years due to intense flooding. We had to land in Brisbane as an alternative destination. Upon landing the chaos continued with lost confused passengers panicking as they looked for the ferrying coaches to take us to the Gold Coast. I decided that we weren't going to be a part of that crap and got into a hire car with my friends at Europcar. After a scary 1 hour drive in extreme deluge we made it to the Gold Coast. Finally after finding out that the Hotel had changed it's name since the reservation was made we were able to relax again... AND SLEEP! We were dead tired as we were up partying till late with the wedding party.

 

Hope you like the pics... we had fun taking them anyway!

Honeymoon Pics Coming Soon

Well we got back from the Gold Coast on Sunday night after experiencing a pretty hectic but fun honeymoon in the rain and floods! Seriously it was all OK after the rain stopped but it was a battle getting there with Cooloongatta Airport closing for the first time in 30 years due to flooding.

 

I'm making this a quick entry. There are photo's galore to post. 200 honeymoon pics were taken. But you'll just get to see the clean ones!  Also Wayne and Dannielle have handed their shots in to scan. Once I've gotten around to scanning/ catergorising and dating them all I'll be posting them up on this here site!

Wedding!

Just a quick entry as I am so so tired right now. I have a flight to catch in a few hours time with next to no chance of getting any real sleep! Yutang and myself are finally married! It happened today with a small gathering of close friends. We exchanged vows in Sydney and had a great meal in Woolahra with a great drinking session to end procedings in Kogarah. Take a look at the photo's and remember that there'll be more pics to come. All those who have photo's don't be shy! Send them on in. We want them all up here if possible!

 

From Yutang and myself we'd like to say thank you and look forward to seeing you all as Mr and Mrs Costelloe in the not too distant future!

Halo 2 Madness Continues

With Wednesday's Halo 2 shoot out now but history I can safely say it went all to plan. Except Wayne winning one of the matches that is. We had 3 matches of Slayer and I won the first in a tough fought match. Wayne then took out the second one by ensuring we were unable to locate him easily enough. But the last match was a joke. I won in a slaughter filled 24 deaths in a row with the term "unstoppable" being used by the game! Basically Owie found the sword. After I sneared it from him by ambushing him from a good hiding spot with a shotgun it was all over red rover. Comments like "get that freakin' thing off him!", "try using another weapon" (after which he was stuck with a plasma bomb) and "if you do that to me one more time I'm putting the controller down" were heard from the other room. I don't know which sux more. The fact that they play so crap or lose so bad!

Late Entry to Wedding Guest List

Just an update to the invite list. Weida Guan, Yutang's work buddy from her airport days is now on the illustriuos invite list and we hope to see him there on the "BIG DAY". Now to get those invites out!
