possum52 Posted April 21, 2019 #126 Share Posted April 21, 2019 Sorry ML, another loss to the Swans. Richmond 13.11.89 d Sydney 10.7.67. I only watched it for s short time so I’m not sure how they played. Buddy kicked four of the Swans’ goals. Leigh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, my score prediction was backwards again. It's good I am not a professional handicapper :-) On a completely unrelated note, the guest bathroom project is now complete. It only took 3 weeks, 4 hours of a plumber, and one day of going back and forth to buy drain/under sink pipes, extensions etc, plus installation. But before and after shots below (old on top, then new). Not a huge change but a little more modern. And we are rid of the old sink that had the enamel peeling off Edited April 23, 2019 by NoWhiners add info 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
possum52 Posted April 23, 2019 #128 Share Posted April 23, 2019 Hi ML, Bathroom - it is different to what I thought it would be from your description! What colour is the top of the vanity? Grey? Are you pleased with it? Swans - a very disappointing start for them. They are 16th on the ladder, just above Melbourne who are just as bad as the Swans. This coming week they play Saturday at 7.25pm at the SCG against GWS. Leigh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This coming week they play Saturday at 7.25pm at the SCG against GWS. Leigh Hi Leigh Yes, I am very happy with it. I had to imagine how it would come out and it looks as I pictured it. The vanity top is a sort of medium beige, with specks of some darker and lighter shades. It didn't come out in the picture very well. The best part is that it's done. We will try and do our bathroom next and then I'll need a rest from house renovations! It has been such a rush the last few weeks, and we were barely able to get a plumber in to do that work before the counter top was installed. The Swans <sigh>. I think this may not be a good year for them. I don't see a win vs GWS, so the losing will continue. At least Buddy is showing some signs of life.

My score prediction--Swans 12.16 (88) Tigers 11.12 (78). But I have a suspicion I may have it backwards again The Swans haven't really been scoring very well so far and Richmond looks like they are warming up a bit. Wouldn't be surprised if Richmond scores a lot more. Maybe Buddy will snap out of his funk--but nothing can make him younger! Go Swans! Have been away so haven't seen any games. Sadly they lost both their games - Tigers 13.11 (89) to 10.7 (67). Buddy kicked 4.1 (17) Giants 18.12 (120) to 12.7 (79) Buddy didn't play.

That means a lot coming from a professional. BTW, we had to connect the drain and faucets. Not a huge issue but it did take 4 trips to hardware/plumbing supply--which is how we measure DIY projects here I think it looks good, now on to our bathroom. The Swans were, ahh, shall we say disappointing, although I thought they would lose so, that may not be the right way to characterize. I agree with whoever said this may not be their year. Love having 2 hopeless teams to barrack for--the Swans and the NY Giants American football team. Who, just to show how cursed we are, just had one of their recent draft picks get shot in the leg. The friend he was with was also shot and died. This was just off campus in Kansas. Sad and another example of senseless gun violence here. So,maybe next week will be better for the Swans. I hope Buddy is OK. Go Swans ML Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Mr Gut. Yes, Corey Ballentine will be fine, he was shot in the leg and is expected to fully recover and be ready for training camp. There are some questions as to his mental state after the loss of his teammate and friend. I hope he does OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cannot see a good result for the Swans up there but you never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
