FO - EEEEE!!

It's footy season!
YAY!
The AFL (Australian Football League) has begun!
Now, this isn't soccer or rugby league or rugby union or gridiron - it's Australian Rules.
I'm not a mad rabid fan like others but I love all the phoof and carry on that goes with it and I love how others love it so passionately.

Too Sweet

Ain't they sweet?
Little girls talking little girl talk.
Totally engrossed in their own little world, oblivious to everything else around them.

They have their highland dancing outfits on - they performed at the Ararat Gift.

Craw! Not Craw!

See his claw?
Cool, isn't it?
It's a ball picker-uperer!
I saw a couple of home-made variations on the design, too.

Run Forrest, Run!

I don't think his name is Forrest.
It could be - but I don't think so.
One of the competitors in the Ararat Gift heats today.
Beautiful weather - a relaxing day spent sitting out in the warm sun
(watching the athletes run like mad buggers!).
