I recall learning that Elizabeth I had a bath once a month "whether she needed it or not" ...

Collingwood supporters would see no problem with that R and B.

    nothing unusual in that

    there is only one bath (shared) in romsey and it's more than a month when your turn comes around

    mind you, queens in romsey get preferential treatment

    I suppose it would be a good place to meet people.

    Depends on the sort of person you want to meet. It sounds like it could be a medieval Gatwick ... :) :)

    In the 18th century they washed clothes and linen with animal urine.

    Something that still happens today in Romsey.

    also jazza, feudal japan was very short on fertilisers and soil was poor in nutrients

    all human waste was collected daily and spread over the fields

    no doggy bags then and walking the fields was a hazardous task

    early europeans (who smelt pretty bad themselves) described the awful stench of the countryside

    While not sticking strictly to a Paleo diet I am eating less and drinking more water.

    I have some scales on holiday but they are not very accurate. Depends if you lean what it shows.

    Get home on Saturday and back onto regular scales and would expect a small loss.

    Might try and go a bit more caveman when I return. That doesn't mean belting the wife over the head with a club either, especially as I would be scared she would belt me back harder.

    "drinking more water" There 's your problem Red!

    Please note! We of Romsey's polite society will not be drawn into any puerile discussion of toilet or personal hygiene habits.

    Although, for those who have a genuine interest, I will note that the chronic fungal issue appears to be under control.

    Exactly the same, so not too bad. Problem is, WJ is dragging me off to Chinese Restauarants and trying to sabotage me.

    • PREVIEW: Sydney

      The two teams competing at the MCG on Sunday afternoon have each traversed a long and arduous path since their previous encounter on a sweltering March evening in Sydney a season and a half ago. Both experienced periods of success at various times last year. The Demons ran out of steam in midseason while the Swans went on to narrowly miss the ultimate prize in the sport. Now, they find themselves outside of finals contention as the season approaches the halfway mark. The winner this week will remain in contact with the leading pack, while the loser may well find itself on a precipice, staring into the abyss. The current season has presented numerous challenges for most clubs, particularly those positioned in the middle tier. The Essendon experience in suffering a significant 91-point loss to the Bulldogs, just one week after defeating the Swans, may not be typical, but it illustrates the unpredictability of outcomes under the league’s present set up.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
