Uncle Bitter is back!! Let it be said that I made an honest attempt at rehab but the gods simply conspired against me. Let me explain.

After being given the arse off this site I decided to sit down and contemplate my failings. Then Moonie appeared at Romsey Manor. Plenty to say but sans grog. The 'lads' picked him early but I didn't listen and Moonie proceeded to drink gargantuan amounts of my alcohol with apparently no concern for the old Aussie tradition of actually buying.

I decided that going to one of those "Zen" places might help me. There is one nearby. Now this seemed to be going quite well and I was ooomming along with the best of them . However, a leotard cladded young lady appeared to be in some difficulty. The ever chivalrous Uncle Bitter attempted to assist. This led to a number of accusations ( One being that I was I trying to find her "centre" rather than my own) so I decided the best policy was to remove myself from that particular organisation.

Funny really. It had bizarre similarities to my expulsion from the gym. Young women are quite confusing really. Then there was my visit to the Primary School. Apparently there was some churlish objection to the bag of lollies. Strange world.

Then .. foolish me. I took Biffen to a Grand Final lunch at one of my clubs. Suffice to say it is now a former club.

Had a few glances at Demonland along the the way.

Some things don't change. The Snitch was sniveling and whining continuously. No surprise there..

Apparently my time in Coventry could have been shorter but for a personal reference. I shall look into this matter.

 

Welcome back Bitter...hasn't been the same without you ;)

 

Let me address the recent short term memory loss that Uncle Bitters has conveniently suffered in his past months bender.

Firstly ,having met our unrepentant and irrepressible squire at a certain mens establishment in town for elevenses in the lobby, things were going well until I was hit up for the "Homeless naughty teenage girls fund" which at the time seemed a worthy cause.More of that later.

In the lifts i began to regret my decision to meet the recalcitrant one ,as ever,when i noticed similar country types in the lift displaying the uncouth coarseness we expect of unsophisticated hayseeds in the big smoke.Not to be outdone in the bad manners and non-existent grooming stakes,The Squire decided to release enough methane to power a small town as the lift took us to the banquet room.

After creating a scene and having our seats moved next to the bar,the squire,unhappy as ever with the vino,insisted on an upgrade of red,which our friendly barman agreed to,and pulled out the best Lindemans.

We plonked our way through inedible food and nonsensical speeches and were asked to leave the banquet room as the Romsey squire was approaching the bargirls with offers of short term farm work,the kind mostly done on stud farms.

As I managed to persuade the truculent host to adjourn to a more private area ,i recall Moonie pulling himself out of a demonstration that had gathered on Collins st to help me carry the Country Member back to his train stop.

It was a day that did little for my social standing,and even less for charity.

Uncle Bitter being referred to as a Country Member. Ha!

As Gough once famously said, "yes, I remember"

The Groucho Marx quip re clubs and membership also comes to mind.

Good to see remorse from the bitter one, shows how big a man he is. I've heard quite large, but that may be bragging.

Well [censored] you all , Bitter is back!!

What's been happening?

Biffen is full of it - his drunken behaviour resulted in me having to prove why I should remain a member of my club. FMD!!!

And ... as for Moonie ... [censored] me .... all he can do is drink free beer.

And what about the snivelling Snitch? FMD what a pissant.

I need some cultured company. OD , how about you invite me to your sister's winery and we drink free pinot?

And I'm still hunting down the class traitor who wouldn't give me a personal reference.

And dc - I 'm having some relationship difficulties ATM - could you toss a couple of greyrinsers my way please?

You wont believe your bad luck Bbo.

After no vintage this year the Pinot reserves are almost exhausted and their will be no more till 2017.

Even I cannot get a free bottle.

Sad but I guess we are used to disappointment being MFC followers.

And dc - I 'm having some relationship difficulties ATM - could you toss a couple of greyrinsers my way please?

stocks are a bit low, bitters. seem to have been to a lot of funerals lately

i've got a few ideas to replenish stock so check back in a few months

you'll just ave to tighten the belt (if you get my gist) for a little longer


Er, shouldn't your sig read "bitterer than ever" or "more bitter than ever"?

The bigger bit is a given.

Is Biffen still supplying You certain ... ahh performance enhancers dc?

alas no, bbo. since biffo got raided by the narcs i've had to.... ahh.. find alternate sauces

BBO, I know why you wanted to come back so desperately, you missed the countdown.

39 just for you.

Ahh BBO how good it is to read your dulcet tones again after your totally unfair enforced vacation. Only Biffen knows how many strings I tried to pull to overturn your ban and I more than anyone knows about the power of pulling strings! I battled strongly in your defence but the powers that be could not be swayed. Their demands were too much, you would not want to know the details.

So be it but you are back and all is well, as if nothing has happened. Remember in adversity we must all stick together, that is my motto!

earl, i suppose with the dumping of ex pm abbott your influence in matters of high state must be waning. you need to move on and get more into malcolm's circle of influence

So an Earl and a Republican walk into a bar......

Nope, don't think that'll work. There's no punchline to match that.

And in Good News today there will be no Melbourne players amongst the International Rules squad taking on Ireland.

Any fears of injuries preventing any of Demons taking to the preseason training have been laid to rest..

in other news...

  • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
