Friday night feasting

What a Friday night. Firstly a seafood risotto - Mako had Pink Ling on special, a yellow chilli spiced it up and some prawns gave it more flavour. Went down well with the table.

Then a diet of Friday night crime Telly. Silent Witness featured a back from the dead Dr Harry Cunnigham! (Celebrated by a friend on Facebook!) What is it with that team of pathologists? Are they crime fighters? How come no one tells them to stick to their jobs? During their Hungarian jaunt the Magpies and the Cats got underway and at quarter time it looked like a predictable result was coming up. Then the second quarter started and the Cats came back from the dead too! 10 goals! Were Collingwood lying down or just lieing? Meanwhile the Socceroos got underway too and Thailand scored. Could Australia come back from the dead? Apparently - according to the Twitter Feed - the Socceroos were panicked, desperate and playing poorly. Lucky there was a second half where they came back from the dead. Apparently the right cross was overworked and obvious.

Case Sensitive got underway and in Galle the Sri Lankans were in trouble - they look unlikely to do the resurrection shuffle to me. Nathan Lyon went from boom recruit to promising possibility. A great debut from Case sensitive somewhat spoilt by the voice over - "that was the series final of Case Sensitive" - perhaps I missed something?

Meanwhile Geelong made the finals just that little bit more interesting. Were the Pies playing with us? The Socceroos netted twice to put Thailand in their place but the rematch in Thailand may be more difficult than first thought.

A feast of entertainment. Multi-tasting, multi-tasking. All witnessed from the lIving room!
