825.0. "When does the snow come?" by UBOHUB::LAWG () Wed Dec 21 1994 07:44

    
    
    I am told that today is the shortest day!
    
    Does this mean that we can dig out our swimming cossies and blow
    
     the dust of our Raybans?
    
    When does the snow come?  I like snow.

I bet there weren't any Sun type headlines like 'Phew, what a scorcher'
either ! I hope you've got air-conditioning.

Are you taking alot of flack about the cricket over there ? I miss Tony
Greig's commentary on channel 9, he pissed on the aussies fireworks on
more than one occasion !

Rich :-) ;-) ���

    What losing every game against Australia, and the Cricket Academy
    TWICE in one weekend and losing to Zimbabwe ... let's just say 
    Phil and I are opening the batting in the 3rd test in Sydney  ;-)
    
    Tony Greig has upset the Aussies so much they've even passed a rule
    explicitly aimed at him, that is no more shoving car keys into the 
    pitch just before a game starts to work out how hard the pitch is!
