The South Australian premier, Mike Rann, this week unveiled plans to expand the Adelaide Oval into a 50,000-seat multi-purpose stadium that will host primarily Australian rules football and cricket.

DON'T YOU FUCKING DARE. DON'T YOU TOUCH MY OVAL YOU BASTARD. WE ARE NOT MELBOURNE AND WE'RE PROUD NOT TO BE. LEAVE MY OVAL ALONE.

Malaysia photos batch 4 ~ Kuala Lumpur 1

Also got my jeans, boardies and work pants sitting there. The jeans~ now have a pattern on them based on Riesling's there, done in shiny fabric paint, and since it's going to be low 20s again tomorrow, I'll wear them to take piccies of =3 I really should do a camera cleanout, now I think of it.
