#pubcrawl We had the pleasure of being at The GOAT Sports Bar for the recent AFL grand final.
Located in Panyu in Guangxhou, there's 2 huge screens, and they'll show any sport you want to watch. There's a ripping weekly quiz night and a wide range of beers and food options.

The Asian Cup just keeps giving. Pure madness between Iraq and Jordan! It was even more crazy and enjoyable than the scoresheet suggests. Aymen Hussein scores is sent off for a mocking celebration only for Jordan to score in 90+5 and 90+7 for the last laugh.
ALT Iraq 2-3 Jordan. Jordan scored in 90+5 and 90+7.

Melanie Safka, widely known as just Melanie, has died at age 76. She performed at Woodstock at just 22, and her distinctive voice and emotive lyrics have left an indelible mark on the folk and pop music scenes with "Brand New Key," and "Lay Down (Candles in the Rain)."
Why do the Socceroos always feel shaky against teams with nothing to lose?

Bail currently on the ground. Hopefully to be claimed by a West Indian as a souvenir of a great win.

A playlist based on Tenement Kid, Bobby Gillespie.
23 hours of tunes and I've been thrashing this one.

Fans of The Band and Bob Dylan will enjoy this playlist based on the book Testimony by Robbie Robertson (who died August 2023).
This was a really enjoyable read through the history of an iconic music group. From the earliest rock, through to the '80s.

My new #PubCrawl thread.
I'm a pub nut and visit new ones as regularly as possible.
You can find my posts on FB at The Pub Crawl.
I'll try to add them under this thread.
PubCrawl: The Feathers at Burnside looks like a relatively aged hotel but, in fact, has only been open since 1966.
While nearly 60 years old, the site has a previous relationship to serving alcohol having been a wine salloon.
A classy establishment that fits in nicely to the local surrounds, the hotel has recently had a refit and is pretty schmick.
We had a great meal, and the outdoor area looks a wonderful place to spend a sunny afternoon.

The Australian captain focusing on what he's paid to do. Well played, skipper.

When the Windies reached 250, I thought that would be challenging. 300 odd now looks like a mountain to climb.

I love where I live. Australia's a great place. We have freedoms others would envy.
Today, I've had the joy of running at the beach, just cooked a barby lunch for my family and am wearing an Aussie cricket top as I prepare to watch Pat Cummins lead our team in the Test.
We've benefited from all that's come before us, including Indigenous custodianship pre-colonisation.
The ability to recognise that, my friends, isn't unAustralian. It's actually quintessentially Aussie to be free to have these discussions.
Patriotism isn't just blind.
Oi oi oi.
