Come on you blues - go the Chiefs!!

Well its final day!!
It's FA cup final in the UK - Come on you blues (of course I mean the Toffees) and over here Waikato Chiefs (super 14 rugby), the local team, are in the finals for the first time, in South Africa! Kick of is 1 hour apart. We will be get up in the night to watch the FA cup and I am sure will check out the radio now and then to check on the Chiefs. Hope they both win.
Kieran went to Hamilton (we went shopping for school shoes for Lou and things) in his Everton kit, baseball cap and scarf!! When we were in one shop we could see a Chelsea fan in the lobby, Kieran couldn't resist going over and showing off. Stevie had to join him with his cellphone blasting z cars out!! Don't think the guy even know what we were on about, must have been a kiwi!!LOL!!
Got back and played some Everton tunes and had to phone a friend up, we wasn't in but we left a message of some songs for him. He phoned us up when he got back and said it made his day!! He sounds just as excited as us.
We maybe 12,000 miles away but will be there in spirit!!
Come on you blues - Go the Chiefs!! :-)

Haere mae!!

Well here I am with a new blog. Similar name - different country. (I better stick to it more though this time.)
Why the title - well when I did the last blog I had been listening to Cyndi Lauper song and it kinda went. Plus I love the quote by Danny Kaye (White Christmas film not our Bing the other one) - 'Life is a great big canvas, and you should throw all the paint you can on it'. Exactly. Being a scrapper colour is important to me too. So that's where the title comes from.
