LEURA & THE 3 SISTERS

I don’t remember how the hell I got out of bed this morning, as the hang over was quite annoying. It was another nice sleep in before heading to the shower to recover and question the night before. Walking out of the shower I had a quick glance outside to notice the weather still pretty crap but at least the fog wasn’t there. Once we had breakfast and watched a few more episodes of Golden Girls it was time to explore.

We headed to the town of Leura where we noticed a huge market thing. Thinking this was similar to Glebe markets we parked the car and practically raced to the markets to only end up seeing this:

There was a total of 10 stores inside this house. We walked in and had to rush out as we dropped an item and nearly broke it in there. We wandered around to find an appropriate place to have soup. Everywhere was totally packed. We finally found a restaurant that we could grab some lunch at.

Before heading off to see more sights we decided to check out this store which I figure the house owner "Eileen" owns. Half the crap in this antique shop was in Eileen’s house. I figure she stocks half of the items in her house as a show house.

We drove around several lookouts and I think they all started looking the same to me. At one lookout I noticed some sun and got pretty excited. Walking back to the car we looked at a car that looked like mine but wasn’t mine. We were arguing why my car looks grey all of a sudden. When we got closer we realized that it actually wasn’t my car.

We headed back to Echo Point, which is practically a 2 minutes drive from our cottage. We started walking to see the 3 sisters when we spotted theses Asians. Now I’m totally convinced theses Asians are on drugs. No one can walk around like that in this freezing cold seriously. Its like minus 10 degrees and look at what the lunatics are actually wearing.

We spent 5 minutes taking photos of the 3 sisters when we froze to death. We quickly raced back into the closest shopping center to have coffee. At the coffee shop we ordered HOT coffee with fresh scones served with jam and cream. God writing that now makes me feel like scones now.

While ordering the coffee I noticed the water bottles in the fridge labeled "LVS". I practically panic as this was Elvis’ nickname. For all those’s that know of the whole "Elvis and Naz" Story would know that they are missing in action currently as no one knows where they are. I’m convinced that Elvis has released his own water when I get questioned where they are getting the water from. I state from their back yard in New Zealand or from when Naz’s water broke when she was about to give birth. Yes I know the last choice was sick but it was a well-needed laugh at this stage.

We head back home without buying Elvis water to start the fire again. It was totally freezing and we couldn’t wait to start the fire. Someone went totally nuts with the fire and I think we were almost ready to burn the house down. I was convinced the fire was going to crack the window open and burn us to death. Besides we used the poor woman’s entire firewood in less than 3 days.

It was back into the kitchen to cook another meal for us. Being the salad master I took this role again. Once dinner was done we decided to watch some DVD’s before the soccer game. We started to watch Candyman when people started to get scared in the first 5 minutes of the movie even though nothing had happened yet. We had to switch it off and replace it with Paycheck. One of my favorite Ben Afflect films.

Once the movie came to an end it was time for hot chocolate and marshmallows. I decided to start filming when I spotted a torch in the hallway. Thinking it would be a great idea I convinced myself we should head to the Mannequin room to do some torch style filming. The footage actually looks good.

The soccer started and we were clued to the TV. However I was still in filming mode. I was ready to head back into the Mannequin room and chop of the head to it in the dark for some great footage. The half time whistle rang and this is when I spotted the Game Analyst. They were there to analyze the soccer game. This is when I yell out that I should be a soccer game Analyst when I get yelled at that I know jack shit and cant analyze a game. One of the Analysts called "Rahul" starts to talk and the guy can barely speak English.

The minute this guy starts to talk I crap up laughing at his comments. This guy had no idea what the hell was going on. This was the Netherlands game and the guy stated:

"The difference between the two teams is Robben"

I.e. Robben is a soccer player. Like what the f?

Obviously the difference between the two teams is Robben. It’s not like his going to be playing for both teams.

The guy went on to say

"When you play 3 games, if you lose one, you're already 50% out of the game."

Don’t ask me what I was laughing about but for crying out loud I can definitely go and analyze the games with stupid comments like this!
