ANZAC Day


We had a pretty big ANZAC Day at the Club, being the only ANZAC Club left in Sydney. The entire Board was there helping out in various modes, Mandy & Jenny were onto the Legacy sausage sizzle for about 4 hours on the Sports Lounge balcony, where we had my 50th brunch/recovery.
It was interesting that the older peole wouldn't/didn't make a gold coin donation however all the younger crew were putting notes and multiple coins into the barrel; strange.
The 2-up kicked off at 2pm and ran until 6pm and attracted a lot of people. In the above photos you can see Sebastian on the microphone, giving Nic a break, and Mal is in the ring in the other white T shirt.
The Club went through 30 kegs, way up on last year, but there were noticably less people there but still a huge turn out.
And to ice the cake, the Bombers came from 14 points down with 3 minutes to go to snatch a victory over Collingwood; and you just have to LOVE that.
Take care all, will write more soon.
Love Weiry & Mandy
