Tim and the Monster

Let me introduce you to Tim Hall -on the left- and Shane 'Monster' Baisden. Tim enjoyed three days of cricket with us in the peaceful surrounds of the Essar Stand. For anyone who has been through the Bradman Gallery at the Adelaide Oval, Tim painted the 'The Don's' cover drive, 'Bradman signed' and certified! Thinking Tim, the artist, was here for the cricket, we came to learn that Tim (http://www.timhall.com.au) is an Evangelist and on a crusade of Southern India.

The big man set us straight on a few life mysteries and kept us enthused and thoroughly absorbed by his line of work. He is a great fellow whose focus on life also transcends the cricket world, shown as he sat cheering the boys along, turning to ask us if he was doing it right. He has the ability to heal the sick, so I'm sure he too has the ability to cheer correctly for Australia. Just like Monster here who is the brains trust behind the development of our site.

Monster operates www.designport.net building websites around the globe in between occasionally following Australian cricket. It was doing our site that convinced Monster to join us here and thankfully he decided to come for he has been a godsend with the site's operation thus far. Though pasting features and photos doesn't take too much effort (as I slowly learnt), Monster tirelessly, amends the site daily for our benefit, keeping on top of all the glitches that present when we least expect it. He does of course 'Wave the Flag' for us too and that is a good thing!
