Been working with a guy to make an adaptor so I can put a Safari style snorkel head on the TJM Airtec snorkels.

Aadptor arrived yesterday, so I fitted it all up.

Need to a little bit of tidying up and maybe a few minor alterations to it, but it's turned out pretty good for a first print.

Hey I bet that JD tastes good, not a spirits man myself, but I'm sure that'd be enjoyable with some ice.

Why the 18 month wait?

Pretty much time it took from first discussing this to having it in our hands. It had to go via Brown Forman, who own Jack Daniels. so things take their time. we are already discussing the third barrel buy now.

I see you don't have ice in your glass, do you drink it with ice??

I used too, but never now. I find ice just waters it down and hides the flavours.

NRL Thursday night footy. Nice to watch a game that's not over coached and rules don't change year on year. Just a good, tough, skillful, consistent game. Simple concept eh AFL.

What's changed in regards to how the game's played? I'm no league expert, quite the opposite actually.

The big one this year has been the inclusion where any ruck infringements which would used to have been blown a penalty, the ref will now call 6 again and the tackle count is restarted. It's made the play the ball much quicker which means we get more footy in the 80 minutes and the big fellas are getting tired quicker.

Keep an eye on Harry Grant the tigers hooker, he will be back at the Storm next year!

Yeah I'm not as up to date as a "real" league fan Winnie, I just like the game a lot.

In 1994 I went to a City vs Country game at Newcastle with a Vic mate. We both sat there not knowing what the hell was going on.

In 1995 I moved to Sydney and was itaken to a Balmain Tigers vs Wests Magpies game and didn't get into it again. Didn't understand it. Not even huge Paul Sironen hitups got me to understand the game (although I remember seeing that huge bastard).

Then I went to a friend's local grade games and over several weeks I asked why this, why that, and got taught the ins-and-outs of the game, and I loved it!

Back to Vic in 1998 I preferred League over AFL and went to Storm games at Olympic Park. Was great! But moved out of Melbourne and haven't been to a game since.

Still love watching it on TV and in my opinion it is so consistent in its rules generally. It doesnt change markedly year on year like AFL which has turned from its own game, which was bloody great, to a cross between soccer, basketball and rugby union. Lost its identity in the last 20 years unfortunately.
