I had to go to Auckland and I was disgusted.

They were all so bloody nice it was sickening.

Jokes aside it was a great place with great people, not what I was expecting at all
 
Really enjoyed that test for a thrashing. Lots of great little battles amongst it. The pitch was great and day/night cricket is brilliant. Shame about the crowds, but from my perch here in Sweden I can't begrudge my fellow sandgropers not wanting to die in those conditions.

I think this is the most I've liked an Aus cricket team. Call it lip service or good PR or whatever, but the image has improved. Aus thrashing NZ a few years ago would fill me with a little bit of cultural cringe, but this was so enjoyable.

Langer as the new-age guru coach is immensely likeable, Cummins is almost too perfect, Starc is such an under-rated gun, Marnus is an adorable cricket dork; even Wade and Warner are growing on me.
 
sadly I got the dusty Martin haircut last night after a few, so not sure what's planned for Xmas.

Got about 50k through apparently. It's a busy time of year. Xmas parties, work, 4 days of 40°+.

Gotta feel for all the people who mightve copped some sort of food poisoning from the sangas/wraps etc.

Doubt anyone actually got sick. Someone found a piece of slightly undercooked chicken in their food and freaked out. Pretty drastic measure to recall all food containing chicken in it.

Sounds like they only recalled the chicken items supplied by an external contractor, so anything cooked in house was fine. I just got some context from an article and yeah it doesn't sound too bad but then again the PR spin machine would've been in full swing.
 
Yeah I woke up feeling like pure death but I went straight to Varsity Joondi for a pint or 16.
A man after my own heart

I went home from my mates place feeling like a zombie, showered, then straight back onto the beers
 
Last thing I wanna do while hungover is drink. Genuinely prefer just popping 4 Panadol, a double espresso and standing under a hot shower for 40 minutes.
 
my go to is Panadol, blue staminade, bacon and egg sanga, brush teeth. no coffee, no noise
