Dead Set Legend.

I first saw him (live, as opposed to on tv) at the SCG in 1975 against the poms. He was breathtaking then, as was Thomson. Greatest I've ever seen.

 

[MWPP]

is that a euphemism?

No, more to make sure that Dingster isn’t tony in disguise

Can barely tell us apart.

 

[MWPP]

Can barely tell us apart.

What’s the difference between you and Tony?

He deals with crime and you do hammer time

Strigoi

Why? Looks like that post had nothing to do with me.

 

[Strigoi]

All of us will have played hard in this game. We deserve the good stuff!

Mrs Turbo has only ever known to charge one …… oh! you meant payment charge.

who died!

 

[Mrs Turbo]

We've come to a truce

Because now we have a common enemy. The outlanders. Here's one having a crack at GWS Goose. You would have thought that Mrs Turbo would stop filming and help out but honestly I'm glad she didn't.

I yelled at the emu ----Le'go!

now that just wrong I tell ya - WRONG Braklet

 

[Mrs Turbo]

Well the sim has gifted me both a wooden spoon and a flag. Disaster and triumph seems to come to me in fairly equal measure!

IB - the Allies are going Back to Back

The second one

 

[GWS Goose]

At what point do we acknowledge this as a Allies dynasty.
Serious question, is this the greatest SOO team ever formed. I suspect so

I would call out your delusions of grandeur but that I remembered it was you.

Hey Allies, have you been to see a quokka yet? They live on an island that the Dutch called a rat's nest, but they're cute as heck. You have to catch a totally safe and not bumpy at all ferry to get there. BLUEALLTHRU is the skipper of the ferry, he's only crashed it once.

Be a shame if he forgot to pick you up again though.

Should be noted that BLUEALLTHRU has only driven the ferry once as well.

Dead Set Legend.

One of the best of all-time. Still remember him tearing up Pakistan in a tour match at Lilac Hill as a 50 year old, alongside son Adam as they dismantled Pakistan early to be 5/24.

[Braklet]

Fun fact - Rotto’s subway is the only subway that I’ve been to that also does pizza!

At first, I thought "WTF does an island need a subway for?"

Then, oooohhhhhh...

 

[Braklet]

Don't joke. It's on its way.

Immersive The Lord of the Rings Musical To Make US Premiere

oh **** no...

 

[Braklet]

Selfies? I bring my own camera crew everywhere I go.

Influencers these days are so low budget.

Do you have links to any of those influencer videos shot at your pool?

 

[Braklet]

I've actually read the LOTR trilogy 3 times, absurd given Im not a fan.

There is no reason to expect JRR to write clipped prose a la James Ellroy. He was building a new world in those books, not just telling a story.

The only thing I find a little tiresome about JRR's books is his frequent reliance on transcribed song. Started out cute enough in The Hobbit ("that's what Bilbo Baggins hates!"), and I can see it as necessary when dealing with Middle-Earth legend, but it crops up way too often.
