I can see at least 3 that are out of date! What a con

 

[Wosh]

Sorry guys, the Premiership badges seem to be doing their own thing, yours have been removed but some don’t seem to want to leave
They must be on some sort of auto thingy, I’ll sort it all out asap.

As the year ends I'd like to thank all the Ophidian Old Boys for another great season of banter and qooty antics. Really enjoyed S38, especially the return of our S38 All-SFA chimp Over The Post , getting to play with the sexiest man in the SWEET Dingster (even though I have to keep a firm eye on Mrs Turbo now) and getting to pull on the qooty boots with former Bombers and great posters Pugsley and gab213.

​

Its people that make this a great place and Spotswood is packed with good people and so I look forward to leading the team for the 6th time and doing it all again. Sadly we say goodbye to a couple of great Old Boys. Our S37 EKA winning blue horse myblueroan has decided to live life in the paddock and step away from qooty. Fortunately Spotswood stables and oat quality is expectational so I am sure she will not be a stranger and will grace us with her wonderful presence whenever she is in the vicinity. Also its with pride we send off TRUMAN#1 aka Bono to the Furies to help a team that has struggled over the last few seasons and see if he cant add some Old Boy magic to the Hippodrome and make the Furies great again. Hopefully they will open Kittens and we can celebrate their successful rise with a lap dance or two.

​

So refresh and recharge yourselves over the holiday break and lets get ready to claim our 3rd Premiership S39, go Old Boys.

The last six months we have lost Fleabane, DemurePrincess and now myblueroan and TRUMAN#1, all exceptional posters. The Old Boys have worked hard and brought in some great posters and 4 new rookies for season 39, do the work and nothing changes go Old Boys.

It was a fun and eventful year everyone. I can't wait to go to the well with you again in 2025.

Thanks to all the departing and departed OOBs for their efforts to the cause as well. Enjoy the holidays everyone and hopefully 2025 will indeed be a good one.

Ah ****it. Seems the ad is too old and I can't be bothered trawling through hours of "80s kiwi ads" on youtube to find it.

Well come on you boys
Don't you fight
<dut dah dah dah dahhhhh>
Break out the Rashuns
It'll be all right

So we did
And it was!
Cheese and bacon flavoured Rashuns,
They'll stop the rumble!

Call it off, Rashuns lost their taste in 2019 when they switched the factory to canola oil and were properly ****ed in 2021 when they moved to new machinery and changed the shape/size of a Rashun.

Bluebird insist the recipe hasn't changed but any Kiwi can take the challenge and tell you the new ones are shit.

What was the previous cooking oil? Just curious, as one of the old weirdos who keeps a jar full of bacon grease in the fridge. (Best for cooking eggs and popcorn!)

In that case when i win DemurePrincess you can still have the Rashuns.

Can't find it with just a quick google, but here's the death knell.

And I obviously missed Bluebird being bought out by Pepsi.

Based on the article's emphasis on less saturated fats, I'd lay odds that they used to fry their snacks in palm oil. It was a common ingredient in US snack foods at one time.
