Returning With Rafter...



So there I was reading about where statues go when they die, and it struck me that Stand By Your Statue was in the process of joining them! We can’t have that, I thought to myself, so, better late than never, here I am back on the case…

Greetings all, and happy New Year! Here I am getting this statue show on the road for year number four! As I have said on countless occasions before, I was only supposed to be doing this for six months or so. Please, please, please continue to send in your statue imitations pictures from all around this glorious world, either by sending me an email to the address on the right there, or by adding them to the Facebook group, and we’ll see if I can continue for a good few more years…

It was around a year ago that I arrived in Australia, and we were fortunate enough to watch some of the Australian Open tennis. As I’ve discussed before on the site, each year a famous Aussie tennis player is inducted to their tennis hall of fame. Last year, it was a fellow named Mark Edmonson, and we also took time out to imitate a couple of other legends while we were there. This year a more recent player was inducted, Mr Patrick Rafter, so here is a picture of Pat Rafter stood by himself. Good on ya Pat.

Anyways, it’s nice to be back. You have my word that it won’t take me another couple of months before the next episode. Indeed, I’ve still got a fair few more pictures from that Oz trip, so hang in there folks…
