A Historic Event


It's the small moments that shape your life innit? The stuff that might bore or surprise strangers when you tell them about it. Marriage, kids and all that stuff are obvious highlights but anyone can do that and all going well, everyone who does do it has exactly the same outcome - a healthy kid, a lovely service etc etc
Try telling someone about playing pool on a knackered table in a garage every year since you were a kid and no matter how well you tell it, folk that haven't done it will never be able to fully grasp it. But move 20,000 kms away and miss it one year, along with all the implications and baggage that goes with it, and you start missing home pretty sharply. Sitting on a little coffee table disguised as a mobile on speaker-phone just ain't the same.

Congratulations Aaron! You deserved one for all the entertainment over the years.
