Only watched the races on TV but I thought Geelong looked great. I think last time I was there it was raining but it really looked like a different place. Well done, I say.
On my first visit to Geelong (mega years ago) there were signs on shops 'God shops here.' Locals know what I mean but I was completely confused at the time.

Best thing to happen in geelong since they won the AFL grand final.
Best advertising world wide for Geelong & Australia.
Only once in a lifetime down under so the wowsers will have nothing to complain about again but they will welcome the extra people visiting geelong and spending their tourist dollars.Jim Carroll

Wowser - Wikipedia, the free
encyclopedia
Wowser was originally a slang expression, most commonly heard in Australian and New Zealand English. It originated in Australia, at first carrying a similar meaning to 'lout', i.e. an annoying or disruptive person, or even a prostitute. In around 1900 it shifted to its present meaning: one whose sense
So they are different to annoying little garden gnomes are they?Back To Car Building & All The Sawdust.

Yes I agree....the best part of any bike race is the end...I love a good sprint
One stage of the Tour Down Under goes past my house.....it happens every year. I can't get my car in or out of my driveway for the best part of a day. A bit inconvenient but the TDU brings in a huge amount of tourists and their money to SA so I don't have a great objection to the event and get into the spirit of the race. This year I even rode one of the stages...a good excuse to get on a bike and work off some fat.Whatever note you blow youre never more than a semitone away from the correct one....(Miles Davis)
