Drink a litre of IPA and the hangover will disappearWith the over celebrating, all I get is a headache and wanting to give it back.
Bed makes it worse.

Massive tourism attractor
Big merch sales
Lots of employment
Associated taxes
Finance brand consultancy valued them at about GBP 70 billion biz in 2017 (approx 25 billion of hard assets)- would be a lot more now

A curious insight into the spectrum of supporters that football clubs attract. We all love Collingwood but outside of football so many of us live in very different realities. Regardless of your view on the role on the monarchy and its fringe benefits, it's worth to society or crimes that you may think should be laid at their door - a fundamentally decent woman whether she's a queen, office worker, politician or truck driver is entitled to a nod of respect.
I'm guessing King Charles has or is currently suffering from some medical condition that is causing his hands to swell and/or retain fluid.
I wonder if this condition can be targeted to a specific area of the body?
Asking for a friend in need.

I dedicate my 50,000th post to her Majesty The Queen.
RIP

Yeah it was like for me, (AFL) let’s embrace our Indigenous brothers and sisters as they welcome us through voice of one of their Elders.
In my time, she’s I’ve known her as a nice woman, Queen, Monarchy head, well to do etc and seriously wouldn’t know anything different on the main.
But you know what, even in death let’s celebrate and honour the woman that was head of the Monarchy that resided over the stolen generation etc.
Just the grouping of both events on the night- Totally awkward.
The only problem here is the queen was not truly a leader. She was an inspiration to some, to others a figurehead of an institution/system that many would consider oppressive and corrupt. If anything she represented a worship and acceptance of the status quo and that is not leadership. Certainly she was a wonderful example of dedication to service but in doing so did not achieve the sacrifice that tens/hundreds of thousands gave in her and her families name.
It is nice to see the best of people in their passing but lets not be blind to history. The Queen's family were supposed leaders whilst their subjects, their armies and their gentry brought about more suffering (in the royal families name) than any of the four above. You cannot separate the Queen from what she represents currently and historically. If you were going to make a worthwhile comparison then it would be with Mao, Stalin or Pol Pot.

Any economists or finance people in there ?
A consortium of private equity people would buy them in a heart beat as a biz
Thank you though (at Bunnies game and slow to open)

Excellent news. I'm elated.
Charlie was draft pick #1 for the throne, and I'm relieved he's older than Andrew; maybe we dodged a bullet there.
I'm working hard to reconcile your royalist and unionist tendencies mate!

Jmac's day off has nothing to do with the mean slur he made about my anatomy.
I'm not a petty man.
