I'm still confused about why Guinness don't take the big idea that's made them so big elsewhere. This ad was in the sports section of the SMH yesterday.
Phil Jacques finally gets a shot at opening the batting and makes a ton. Good things come to those who wait.
Mick Fanning becomes the first Aussie to win a world surfing title for 20 odd years. Good things come to those who wait.
Spring Carnival finally kicks into gear in Sydney, despite there being no live horsies running around. We can still get pissed though. Good things come to those who wait.
