Cheers to Australia's Patron Saint:

Feb 19th, Bon Scott Day.

It's kinda like Advent, but cooler.
So to start the count-down:

You do know he was actually Scottish?

It's a long way to the shop if you want a sausage roll:

Dunston to be precise...I met him about 20 years ago at a mates pub at the back of my house (1/2 a mile anyway).

I never knew he was the cousin of my mates wife until he walked into the bar unnanounced with a couple of his musician friends and gave an impromptu acoustic performance.

The bar was chocca within the hour as word got around.

I wasn't into AC/DC....until after that night.
