I'm new here...

Post by pommie_mart »

Hi all,

Thought I'd introduce myself. Yes I'm a pomme, I do however shower anything up to once a year and can drink 3 pots without screaming.

I've lived here for six years now (landed Grand Final day 1997) and have been following the pies since my first trip to Melbourne in 1993, the first game I went to was against Carlton where we lost by more than 10 goals (I think). I've been getting more passionate over the past four years to the point that I travelled up to Sydney last weekend. It's something else being deep behind enemy lines.

I've still got a lot to learn about the pies history and past players so please forgive me if I say something stupid.:oops:
Here's to the Pies giving the Bummers a good towelling on Friday. Cheers!

From an Aussie in London to a pommie in Melbourne, welcome to Nicks Board. You will meet some lovely ppl here and enjoy the ride. And if you have a hankering for baked beans and English breakfast, we can send you some over, in exchange for some tim tams and cherry ripes if you like?We should get some trade relations happenning here.

Thanks for the welcome. I hope I can contribute something, even if it's my odd sense of humour.

annewilo - the food is better here so please don't send any over. Be glad to get some cherry ripes over to you. Which pub do you work at? :)

lol.....what pub do I work at...really.....but to be honest, its so true, every pub has their token Aussie......
Yes the food is crap, the beer is warm and the weather is worse than melbourne with its extremes.

Take care and catch you another time.
