Falconed with 'The Falcon'
I doubt that the saying has reached Victoria, WA or wherever the Wild Horse lives, but Mario Fenech (Nicknamed the Falcon) got hit in the head by a stray ball in a Rugby League game 20 or 30 years ago, and any time a NSW kid gets hit in the head, he/she gets 'Falconed'. The Falcon visited Woodlawn today. It took 8 falcons for the photographer to get this shot. I personally think that they got the shot on the first attempt.

Whats The Falcon like?
Nice bloke. He was gushing positives everywhere. He was particularly happy with the bloke throwing the ball at my head and the force with which he threw it. Trent Barratt and David Peachy were also there.
Hey, Jake, do you think going to a school dress-up party as a porn star is appropriate?
For anyone who doesn't get what Jake is talking about re being "falconed", click on the pic and blow it up. The small format doesn't do it justice. Great shot.

Speaking of brushes with fame, I have a letter I received from the husband of the Queen asking me to promote some wildlife program he was involved with. It's just signed "Phillip". I should put it on eBay.
I also met Lindy Chamberlain's husband and I'm related to Joe Roff.
Beat that...
