It is Strange That It Feels Totally Normal to Say "$%^&@* Hamish!" in the Leadup to Regionals

Most Ultimate folks in Brisbane are getting used to it.

The drought has broken (at least in terms of rainfall on Brisbane), so the golden years of uninterupted Ultimate now seem to be behind us. How we miss them already!

These days, every other week there's a negotiation with a field owner about playing before, after or during the rain.

And this week, in the leadup to the first big tournament of the year, we're staring down the barrel of a cyclone.

Sure the media got over excited hoping for catastrophe, and then calmed down a bit.

But the forecast is for showers all week.

Fingers crossed that everything can go ahead this weekend.

Even without a certain Hamish, who has now moved to Perth, and will no doubt billet any Townsville player who makes it there for Nationals.

The good folks from Townsville are quite accustomed to saying "F%$# OFF HAMISH!!!"
