Job for today. :D

I've got a bit up but today I'll do the windows and something out the front.
With Geelong out of the GF this year I won't feel quite as vulnerable this time round!

I have had a sign on the house since last year but can't work out how to upload it. My husband is working up North and has decorated his room and has his Saint's flag flying high.

I constantly live in red, white and black. That's the colour scheme of my house.

Even my bedding is, red sheet, black doona and white pillows.

Just put up last years "clappers" in the front windows. Can't seem to find last years streamers (happens when you move). So off down to Target I go.

Oh and I will be wearing red, white and black all week.

Had stickers made up during the week.

"Hey Lenny, you're a legend mate!"

You will see them around this week!

Geez Maxstar 22, what are you doing putting up LAST YEAR'S clappers!!!!
They didn't do us any good last year!!!!! I must say, your house IS cool though!!
I will be wearing red white & black all week too, and I know of a certain young constable who is going to wear his same Saints socks every day this week!!!
I even have some decorations which were from the 1966 GF, so they will be up for sure!!!

Saw an amazing car in Flinders Street on the way to the game last night.

Had "Go Saints" emblazoned on it in a stunning paint job.
Looked SAINTSATIONAL.

Did anyone else see it?

I was in Coles and Target today and there were about 10 of us all wearing our colours.

We all gave each other a nice little smile and kept on walking.

Only saw one filth supporter out and about.

I also noticed another Sainter at the end of my street with Saints number plates.

I'll be wearing a Saints tie each day this week, but only have three so will need to double up - or maybe just some of the other RWB ones I have.

Just take two days off.

I am heading out tomorrow to get my streamers etc etc. I did the lounge room and lounge room window last year. I will be doing it again this year.

I can not find my posters from last year thou, I loved the big one I got of Roeey in the age last year. I have no idea what happened to them :(


In Ross Get lost!

I am excited to stay at St Kilda and this is a great result for the Club and all our fans. I’m proud to be part of the Saints and am pleased to be playing football with the Clubâ€

How do we upload a picture?
When I click on that question in the FAQ section at the top of the page, it just brings me back to the Saintsational homepage, but doesn't give me the answer.
