It is actually quite pathectic, but only hours before this photo was taken (I broke my right ankle and needed six screws and a plate in my foot for 18 months) me and a few friends were hanging around with the Swans players at Melbourne Cup back in 2003. I think I managed to call Barry Hall a lier and tell him there was no chance in the world he was playing for the Sydney Swans, and Adam Schneider actually visited me in my apartment (at 2am in the morning, I was in so much pain and told him to get out), but anyway, the Melbourne Cup 2003 was great fun, and made me start focusing on who actually played for the team I had been barracking for the past three years. So, when they last year won the Grand Final I was there supporting them (in a car, listening to the radio at a wedding reception in woob woob Victioria), and I am there now going nuts at work hoping for them to win! So despite siblings of Swans players partly being fault in my right foot's limited moveability, I wish them all the luck next week!!! You rock, guys!!Cheers, Maria:)

Kjære Marias foreldre!
Jeg vil gjere høste noe kred fra dere. Det var nemlig jeg som fant datteren deres i et noe lugubert selskap (les: Cass på en snurr), og i heller dårlig form. Det var jeg som tok datteren deres med til sykehus og fikk plastret henne opp. Riktignok glemte jeg forsikringskort og betalingsevne, men det er bagateller. Og det hele skjedde en dag for sent. Men dere -bare hyggelig!
Husker ikke om datteren deres har nevnt hvordan situasjonen oppstod og forløp. Om det er noe dere lurer på, svarer jeg gjerne utfyllende. Igjen - bare hyggelig!
i began reading your blog for the first time today and scrolled down and found tis photo of you!! oh the memories!! such a fun day topped off by you cannoodling then falling over and being treated by first aid! i remember getting into an ambulance with you and giving you ice for your foot and driving u to hospital the following day as the swelling had not gone down!! it was a fun day and im sure the scar brings back happy memories when u look at it love ya babe! :)
Hehe...yes, well it was a fun day. Despite having to backpack the east coast of Australia on crutches I have never regretted heading off to Melbourne Cup that morning, it just led to so many fun, akward, some very painful and rememerable moments, I thank everyone involved. Cheers!
Jeg noterer at anonym forsoeker aa faa noe av min aere her... Anonym som satt i en moerk krok i leiligheten og pleiet fylleangsten da enkelte andre kom inn og reddet dagen. Men det er greit. Det er ogsaa greit at anonym ikke nevner de to andre passasjerene i bilen som faktisk ble med inn paa sykehuset i fem timer. Helt greit. Dersom noen oensker en selvsagt objektiv erindring av hele herligheten er det bare aa spoerre.
