Nothing Better Than Hockey in July
My team and I had a hockey tournament in Perth on Saturday. We did pretty well; we finished 3rd out of 8 teams. I scored 2 goals and had one assist (we only scored 3 goals for the whole tournament!). Scottish hockey rinks are so dodgy and the one in Perth does not disappoint - it is a SQUARE! Playing on a rink that is as long as it is wide is a bit odd. Rounded corners were only recently put in. The ice was no better than skating on a frozen pond. You could see right through to the grey concrete underneath! Oh well. It was still fun to play. Unfortunately, the ride home afterward gave me a hangover this morning.

square??? holy shit. i've played in barns growing up that had chainlink fencing instead of glass and plywood for boards... but never were the rinks *square*... that's kind cool.
so, 3 goals gets you 3rd place???
congrats on getting the job, eh.
now i have another year to come visit.

did you take a portable bar home? How did the ride home afterward give you a hangover? haha!
yay, you're employed! I'm not. boo. But maybe I can come and visit sometime when I'm not in school. Double-boo.

I should have mentioned that they were only 15 minute games.
We bring plenty of drink for the ride home. We can't risk getting thirsty!
