NRL Grand Final 2009 – I won tickets
by Mike250 on September 30th, 2009 in Football, Lucky, Miscellaneous, Rugby
Rugby League Grand Final tickets. Not just any tickets mind you. Corporate Box tickets. Corporate Box tickets with rugby league legend Mark Geyer (MG). Corporate Box tickets with cricket legend Stuart MacGill. Corporate Box tickets with radio and TV personality Gus Worland. With that thoroughly deserved gloat out of the way, I’ll shed some light on how it all happened. Three weeks ago I started a new job in Sydney. Having worked from home for much of the past three years, this was a step into the normal

The US Masters This year the company I work for had an additional project at the US Masters golf tournament in Augusta, Georgia.

Nevan turns 9
by Mike250 on February 1st, 2009 in Family
Just a year to go until we have a double digit child. How did it come to this? We’re not even thirty yet (those astute will realize I will be in four days… it matters not). This was a quiet birthday compared to previous years. It’s not that we didn’t want to celebrate hard, it was more like taking a breath before something big. We were about to show up, un-expected at the doorstep of family in the USA and they didn’t know it.
