What is happening, Bond wise, in Sydney in the next 6 months?
My grumpy old boss has ungraciously allowed me to take some annual leave, and as I work in Jakarta I don't get much news of such things back home.
I need to lock in the dates of my 2 week vacation, hence the request.

Sorry you're both wrong. It's Hawthorn's turn again :)

Being a Sydney boy, I used to follow Rugby League (you know, the game they actually play in other countries ^_^ ) but Super League stuffed it all up, and I lost interest.
So now I follow Union, the game Bond played at Eaton
(I'm bluffing of course, but he probably did. :) .
Does anyone know this, or can look it up?

Well I don't know about Sydney wise but I'm sure someone else here may be able to help :)

But in Melbourne we're expecting a Bond double at a local movie theatre. And possibly a James Bond fan event of some sort.

Won't have a chance to get down to Melbourne, Blue Eyes, but thanks anyway.
If something pops up between now and then I'm sure I'll here about it.
By the way, who's in the 'Aerial Ping-pong' Grand Final, or is it still too early? :-)

Too early yet, this Saturday will decide. It looks like it may be a Hawthorn vs Brisbane (those two are the best tipped in the semi's). Essendon are playing Hawthorn this Saturday, but have a few injuries and suspensions.
