‘Caaaaarn the ‘Roooooooooos!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If Harry was upset with the last ref, then this one surely deserved a header squarly in the nose. The better team won on the day though, as they say.

I recently modelled the Centenial Park pond network (numerical modelling) for hydrodynamic and water quality performance, and I assure you there is nothing unique about the ‘Fly-Casting Pond’. It is, believe it or not, very similar to ‘Duck Pond’ and ‘Busby Pond’ etc.
However, the top ponds, including the Fly-Casting Pond are the nicest, over hanging willows and grassy banks. Very pleasant and Wordsworth-esque on a sunny spring morning. Noice!!!

Optimism has got you this far I suppose. Speaking of fly-casting, yesterday I was looking at a map of Centenial Park in the hope of plotting a route for a covert rampage through the undergrowth and around the many lakes on my bicycle, when I came across the so-named ‘Fly-Casting Pond’. ‘That’s nice of them’ I thought, to allocate space so city dwellers have somewhere close-by to prepare for the next trip down a river somewhere. It’s not all smog and posh bars in town.

So . . . then why are you not also on the field WITH the socceroos? Modesty?

it’s great. i can run around, jump off the roof, kick things, stomp as hard as i want, dance like a ballerina, and ride time-trials at the velodrome. it’s also helped me improve my fly-casting to 150ft, and i’m handing in my PhD tomorrow, right after the socceroos win against Croatia. life couldn’t be better

good grief - what were you doing all the way up there?????????
no wonder they had to winch you both up.
thank goodness there wasn’t more water in the falls.
a very lucky escape i think
now to get that leg right.
