nah .... literally millions swim all the time... very very rare to be at risk, WA has... imo, the best beaches in the world, the coast line is stunning, golden sand and warm turquoise waters not swimming is almost a crime

We have just released a new bandage for snake bites, well worth getting for your first aid kit, designed to cover an entire limb in one and has a display to show how tight to pull it, very good idea indeed.

 

 

Also... get this on your phone for when you are here.... very helpful.... https://stjohnwa.com.au/online-resources/st-john-first-responder-app

 

Nice one, mate.

 

Presumably, the snake bite bandage is available in pharmacies?

No better way to sell a vacation spot then talking about snake bite kits and an emergency aid app

They think the one underneath my daughter was a Bull Shark,I can see why the instructors wanted them in.

can you imagine.Seal shaped object,them jumping and thrashing about,you wouldn’t want to chance it.

She said in a weird way to be in that situation and the beach giving the sirens was a once in a lifetime experience ( probably not for the Aussies)

off on a boat for 4 days around the Whitsundays next week.

Thought the chances of that happening again are greatly reduced.

@ozleicester might say otherwise ?

I’d have loved it to be fair  not the nearly getting eaten alive part though. 

 

Tried to go cage diving with great whites in South Africa but only saw bronzers.

Yeah, wasn’t so much in the end but I’ve got a free ticket back if I go again. Just need to find the cash to fly back there, booked to go in Feb and had to cancel.

Luckily she didn’t know any of this until afterwards.

She obviously doesn’t care,just messaged me to say loved every minute of Byron Bay.

Off to Brisbane now.

Didn’t have the balls.

Whale watching was more my scene.

What a City Cape Town is though.

To be fair... ive been here for 40 years, spent hundreds of hours at beaches especially as a kid... Ive NEVER seen a shark while ive been at the beach, i honestly cant remember ever even having the alarm go off.

 

90% of beaches arent patrolled or covered by alarms so, seeing them is pretty rare. They have the spotter planes cruise  the coast just in case

Cracking day at the cup final with my lad today thanks to winning a couple of tickets. 

 

Loads of positives:

Another major sporting event ticked off the bucket list 

Abide with me and the national anthem made me feel emotional 

Wembley is still a hell of a stadium and the trains there and back was well organised and stress free

Good atmosphere and build up - a real party and celebration of football and felt like the magic of the cup was alive and well

No aggro. Watford and Man City all mixed well. Watford made a good noise and took their hammering in good spirits

Man City were great to watch. Not many teams would have lived with them today

 

A few negatives:

The price of food and drink there is still a piss take

Pep should have worn a suit, the tramp

Loads of empty Club Wembley seats are an embarrassment

 

P.S. Man City fans are nowhere near as enamored with Mahrez as we were. To them he's just a squad player among a team of superstars 

 

All in all, delighted to have experienced it. Long live the FA Cup and I just hope we win it before I die!

Went to Blenhiem palace today. Pricey but nice.

Spent the weekend in Stratford - still one of the nicest places in the country to visit.

Used to visit there a lot when we lived in Kenilworth, particularly the RSC as my other half loves the theatre. Would love to live there someday/

Confusing today.

 

Im in London for the weekend. There are more Liverpool fans here than Spurs. Although, I assume they have never been to Anfield.

 

Also, walking through Camden, I seen a bloke with a Leicester Badge tattoo'd on his calf, but wearing a Spuds shirt..?

Don't be too harsh - it's the closest he's ever going to get to a trophy...

Looked up a girl i fancied in primary school on facebook and felt a bit sorry for myself how my life had turned out so crap compared to hers.

 

Had a few cans of cider and feel a little better.

Don’t compare yourself to something you see on social media. 

 

I know plenty of people that if you didn’t know them and just went off there SM posts it looks like they have the perfect life. Nice cars, big house, 2 holidays a year. When in reality the cars are on 2 year leases, they struggle most months to afford the mortgage and the 2 holidays a year are both put on credit cards. 

 

The only form of social media I am on is twitter and I only use that for football really. I’m quite a private person so dislike having photos of myself & family on instagram & Facebook.

Pretty much this. I dont have Facebook and life is  beautiful. Dont have to see fake stuff or articles about penis shrinking for us men with much larger than average penises.
