NETBALL NEWSFLASH
The Cap'n of our netball team rang up the sports centre to see what date the new season starts and as the lady was saying goodbye she said "see you Tuesday at 6pm".
Cap'n goes "we aren't playing" and lady goes "yes you are - you're in the Semi Finals and your first game is at 6pm - if you win that you go straight to the Grand Final next week"
Cap'n goes "how could we be in the semis when we only won a couple of games" lady goes "if you don't win the semi - you still get a second chance and play another game at 7.20pm because you came second on the ladder"
Cap'n goes "you must be wrong - are you sure you are talking about our team" lady goes "absolutely so see you Tuesday"
Cap'n comes running round the office going "we're in the semi's, we're in the semi's"
After she tells us this most hilarious story and we've all been rolling on the carpet - she is telling the truth - cap'n is telling the truth. We get up off the floor and start to anaylse how we could have got to the semis......
must have been the two or three forfeited games against us that put us almost on top of the ladder - how funny...it was hard to get back to work after being shocked off our socks - now's the hard work - if we don't win the first game we have to play a second and we will prolly lose - we are such a bunch of misfits.....
so please pray - really pray this time.....that I won't come across any leaping giants, alcohol breathing boozers or pink striped nutters....(long long story) or that feeling of let me say "anger & violence" rise upon me that I will need anger management classes for the next 10 weeks...

Hi Randy, a pink striped nutter were some girls who we played that thrashed us - they wore pink striped tshirts and they were a bit weird - i think most of them might have been on drugs so I called them "nutters"...don't mind me - I'm more of a nutter (weirdo) than anyone else...
