Marian’s Happenings

Last Satruday there was a basketball tournament at the local gym. A few friends and I decided to enter a team with the sole purpose of not coming last. We were up against some stiff competition, but nothing I couldn’t handle with my superior height advantage over the Swedes:

It was an epic battle. We played 6 games in total spanning about 3 hours. Against all odds, we lost 6 out of 6 games, coming dead last on the ladder. After attempting to play regularly and fail, I decided to go for a sneaky ninja style of defence- creeping up from behind when they least expected it:

Now you can’t see the bottom of this next photo, but you’ll have to believe me that the other guy is 9ft tall and I totally out jumped him:

And I can’t think of anything amusing to say about these next photos, but I know you’ll want to see all of them Mummy

Many thanks go out of my good friend Jon for taking these great photos to document the day! The full set can be found at http://rifotech.se/
