I am determined to continue writing this blog, despite not receiving much feedback. What has come back has been to my email address but I am hopeful that we will see some comments at the end of the blog.
Today it has been raining continually and yes we certainly needed it but the rain is not falling where it is most needed, particularly in the Midlands. It would be good though just to have a few days of Sun , just to brighten things up.
Tonight I shall be watching the annual Brownlow Medal count on TV. I don't know who will win although most media commentators are hoping Garry Ablett Jnr. Will win. Expect many ineligible players to figure prominently in the count and on-field indiscretions will cost somebody a medal.
My GP arrived unexpectedly this afternoon and gave me the all-clear with a normal blood pressure reading. Thankfully there are no further complications
and he will see me next month as normal.
I am looking forward to watching the Grand Final on Saturday afternoon
from Melbourne. This year channel 7 will apparently be telecasting it and it is the first time for seven years that they have done this. Channel 10 has been doing this and apparently is part of the television rights with the AFL I personally prefer the channel 10 commentary team because they are more knowledgeable than 7.
Prior to the Grand Final , I shall be watching the debate between McCain and Obama at 11 am. It will be interesting to listen to them but the vice-presidential debate between Sarah Palin and Joe Biden will be more interesting. This will be on Friday week. Initially I thought that McCain would run away with the election but his selection of the virtually unknown Alaskan Governor to be his vice-presidential running mate, has the appearance of desperation. Obama and Biden have more experience and look stable. If Obama does win, there will be changes for sure, particularly to the domestic area.
