Algernon Gets Fit???

Well as you know after over indulging on cheese at our birthday party Algernon Rat decided he needed to get fit, he convinced Mummy to take him to an Australian football game.

Where are we going?

Ahhh found it!

That pitch is very big

Will just stay here with Glynis

AR became an honourary member of the Essendon Football Club (AFL - Australian Football League)
He wore the membership badge and tried to wear Mummy's scarf but it was rather too large!! LOL
It was the first game of the season.........tense game..........Essendon was playing Western Bullodgs (the team that Daddy barracks for!!) All the colours and the sirens and the people screaming their support for their teams was so much for AR that at half time he had to have a snack (cheese of course!) and a nap........ then back into barracking for the 3rd and 4th quarters. The Bombers (nick name for Essendon) won the game by 55 points, AR is definitely a good luck charm !!
He loved looking at the team banner and when the players ran thru it. He and Mummy came home very happy, but they did not gloat as it was after all something not sportsrattie like to do !!

Well Algernon decided that football was not the way for him to get fit, he was worried the humans would get confused and tread on him or hit him with the ball, so Mummy has promised to take him out for another way of keeping fit.........
