I'm venting! What a disaster of a night. Wanted to impress the squeeze tonight with a special dinner. Well FMD.

First the young lady I'd employed to help for the night walked out and left me high and dry. Silly really. I had a bit of a slip and had to grab something to save myself- I'm sure all reasonable people will understand - well anyway, I'll let the courts sort that out.

Then I thought all was going along swimmingly with my own chefing until ... Well Romsey Manor has a gourmet kitchen - including one of those fancy double ovens .... but somehow the system failed me! The temperatures were the wrong way around!!!

FMD!!! Then the neighbour arrived making accusations and everything went to shite.

Perhaps Earl Hood can advise me but being of a higher social order can be difficult.

So, in summary, you're a letch and a luddite. Tell us something we didn't already know......

BBO I feel for you after such a dilemma but I can't provide much personal advice on these matters as my man Hudson deals with these type of "downstairs issues" as I label them.

Earl, I think BBOs 'downstairs issues' have more to do with any variety of viral infection, fungus and performance disfunction than what happens with the staff in the kitchen.

On another issue Relating to the Hawks new training centre at Dingley, my wife who is a Hawk tragic is not happy with my vision for their new headquarters. Yes the Hawks Nest will have an admin centre, state of the art training facilities and about ten ovals to replicate the MCG, Etihad, the SCG, Subiaco, Adelaide Oval etc. but then there will be the RACV like supporters experience. A 10 storey hotel, an 18 hole golf course for use by the punters but only when the Dorks players aren't playing.

Then there would be Hawksworld for the kids to visit where you can buy tickets for the Dippertron where you enter a 3D light and sound space not unlike the old ghost train experience but instead you have a Dipper coming at you at 100 km/hr with his elbow up with only a second to react. After that you buy tickets for the Dermietron and then the lethaltron. The Lethaltron has great visuals, you really feel like you are there on the ground playing fullback and then all of a sudden your lights go out. It is an amazing game I mean at no time do you ever see Lethal lining you up for a king hit. It just happens, bang, you are out cold and no one ever sees it. Great game.

Oh the wife is not talking to me by the way.

They would've kept the Buddyator, which closely resembles a safe injecting room, but that was shipped up to Sydney last year.

All the same, I really like the prizes you can win on the chance games. There's the Don Scott replica handbags, the Michael Tuck zimmer frame miniatures and the John Kennedy Snr personally signed flasher's coat.

Yes the Buddyator has gone but I have been doing some user acceptance testing on the Dermietron and it is very real. I am in hospital tonight after I did some simulations today without the proper PPE and Take 4 risk assessments. I stupidly started the Dermietron, then punched in Dean Chiron and found myself in a realistic 3D visual of the old Waverley ground with the umpire about to do the first bounce. There were plenty of Demon and Hawthorn jumpers around but I don't remember much more than that. The ball was bounced, then I caught a glimpse of Dermie and his elbow just before the collision, just before I passed out I was told I had given away a free to Dermie. But that's Hawksworld, they always win! Edited by Earl Hood

The poor lads must be freezing their cojones off out your way, Bitter. Poor alpacas.

it's worse than that. bbo is so desperate for filthy lucre he gives the lads a second shear just before winter

The Alpacas are going ok Mable - the barn is centrally heated. In fact I flaked out there after last night's culinary disaster ( and a further bottle of shiraz).

Can't chat as I'm currently trying to recover my reputation for producing culinary delights. Might be my last chance with the squeeze.

Which one of the alpacas is the squeeze?

Edit: no don't tell me - it's the good looking one - right?

Depends which day of the week it is bjDee.

Let's see..... today is Thursday, so that means that it will be the light brown hembre, I believe he calls her Dominique. BBO talks about them constantly, it really is quite a bore to put up with on match. Biff and Mable will vouch for me.

Dom must be the one with the one with the ear ring.

Think it's a big nite happening down at the Gat. He's already called me Maple.

Seeing double, speaking double. I'm not usually like that till this time tomorrow nite.

Most of Bitter's comments are rather unique, Shadow. However, when Bitter has had a few to many Shiraz's to forget the lacklustre on-field product on game day, he starts talking about the lads' lineage. That is when he has lost me. Apparently it all traces back to an albino alpaca named Sven. Edited by Maple Demon

i think bbo has read too much greek mythology and is overly fascinated by centaurs

at least that goes somewhat to explaining his odd attempts at animal husbandry

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
