    I swore allegiance to Queen and Country, and have plenty of mates done the same. Have mates naturalised on Australia Day. Have served with Indigenous folk with the exact same swearing of allegiance, spent most of my adult life playing footy with them, up and down the country ... I have no time...

    I was more suggesting that he looks like a younger version of LP. Hopefully his football hits a similar level. Tommy Parker :cool:

    Well off I went on an almost related tangent ..... the old bi-planes must never have had heating as the pilots seemed always garbed with gloves and scarves ..... could have had a heater at their feet though ..... my old Leopard tank had an awesome heater. When we were all closed down it was warm...

    Just spoke with a bloke who’d be across it, imo. Reckons that Point Nepean Rd that has been closed since the landslide, will reopen over the weekend … only to be reclosed on Tuesday. VicRoads apparently stalling over 1 word in a report, that might see them liable to road users … A fair bit of...

    Aldi has a cheap non data plan. Sold it to my best little mate .... he gets a rejuvenated iPhone and a no data sim, until he's a bit older, then we just change the sim so he can get some data .... way too much thinking being a parent!

    Stopped for a wee at the dunnies in Dromana, the ones near on out of town on the way to landslide central. Cleaner bloke opens the door to the disabled dunny, there’s blood soaking towel napkin things all over the floor, blood on the walls … wtf is all that I asked the cleaner. Fella tried to...

    Mate I am no real fan of Jy, but that Webster fella got him good and proper, Dipperesque if you will. Certainly would have rattled the old grey matter … didn’t appear to make his disposal wain, nor improve it for that matter 🤣🤣🤣, but it was still a huge hit by today’s standards. He can’t be too...

    I mentioned yesterday that he has a good swerve on him, and being a lefty he has a good shoe on him too. Needs to be in from the off.

    Well I was outgunned on the location, so had to trapse into the big smoke. I couldn't even tell you the name of the place, was kinda near Haighs Chocolates in whatever arcade .... place was on the left and up a bit .... if you're facing north .... had the eggs benedict which were pretty yummy...

    I reckon LDU ran about 50 x 100m at about 3/4 pace. Same as Fisher and Hardeman?? Tucker did more than a handful at the back end of training too. LDU, Parker, Duursma, Wardlaw and someone else - I forget - were running lengths earlier in the piece. Jy and Colby had a cruisy day, CM as mentioned...

    Certainly nothing like the scale of the Turaga story, but it reminded me of it .... circa the end of 94 I was in Israel working on a Moshav ..... my mate Gary and I had bargained with our farming host that we'd bang out 13 days straight to get a saturday off and head into Beerhseba, the nearest...

    Righo city kids, I'm heading down to Electric Avenue on saturday morning to watch the boys train, then having a little bit of a catch up with some folk from lifetimes past .... any good recommendations for a not too raucous cafe type thing nearby? Please and thank you.

    Turns out all you need is a bit of a landslide to get a group of engineers, a couple of diggers and a bloke with a turny thing to get the roads fixed of their continual water flowing ...... Certainly not helped at all by the influx of diverted traffic. I caught the sound of a somewhat angered...

    We had a situation last week when we didn't have enough bikes at work, as 3 had been tagged out in a day when we also had another 3 already tagged out and awating repair. Over the years, preventative maintenance has been removed in favour of repair maintenance. Bikes that used to be replaced at...

    Interestingly, or not, but there have been significant water damage to some streets directly behind these houses. As in, water coming up through the road leaving massive holes/semi repaired parts of the road, with water still nearly flowing through. All water flowing down the hill . Has...
