I am sure all will pleased that Uncle Bitter is able to post again. My computer has just returned from extended hospitalisation. It required some transplants plus a miracle cure for the technological equivalent of a combined Zika and Ebola virus. I suspect the lads have been using it to surf South American porn sites.

I notice OD has been posting some remarkably positive comments on this site and can only put this down to a near death experience caused by a combination of single malt and free Pinot.

The good Doctor also made a comment which I found perplexing - "The Hopping Dicks BDSM group assures me that they are no less effective than any other method and have the advantage of assisting in environmental control". I don't intend arguing the efficacy of bamboo and/or rattan but rather the very existence of The Hopping Dicks BDSM group. I have an up to date listing of official Australian groups and they do not appear. While it is possible they simply have not paid their affiliation fees, I think it more likely they are a small family owned and operated organisation rather than a rogue or outlaw group.  

As to Earl Hood and his Paul Osicka Shiraz 2012. Yes it is a decent Heathcote drop but you should have bar b qued the roo leg over a 44 gallon drum while sloshing it down from Riedel shaped plastic cups. (I will, however, give dc some credit for his advice about the quinoa salad - a pretentious addition in my opinion)

My profession is grateful to all those who contribute to this thread.

It's saved us a great deal of time and expense in our research efforts.

I take it this year's crop has survived bugs , bushfire and other maladies OD?

BBO with the amount of po rn you drool over on your computer, I'm surprised you haven't yet invested in a water proof cover and gutter drainage system.

I presume you haven't quite got the hang of this virtual reality thing when you're practising your disciplinary techniques, BBO.

As for the local group, who pays fees until they're obliged to? They're looking forward to your efforts to pursue that obligation.

Arrgh, there's the rub, now I can see why you are a Dr Dr, and not just your standard garden variety alchemist.

You have spanked the nail on the head!!!

You see, my life is virtual reality - I think.

Late breaking news!!! Apparently Biffen did get found out and was arrested when leaving the family day at luna Park!

Went to the family day with Mrs. Redleg, our daughter and grand daughter number 1. Biggest crowd at a Dees family day in the last few years.

My wife, daughter and GD were there Mr. Leg.

all enjoyed it. They were surprised at the numbers.

Mrs OD was impressed she saw no bogans and thought the supporters were nice.

I have been telling her that for 45 years obviously Pies supporters are slow learners.

What did she expect when we have such fine upstanding supporters as BBO, Earl Hood and Biffen?

Goes without saying really.... And yet we do 

I am seeking advice from my fellow Dlanders. It has recently come to my attention an accusation that my favourite scullery maid, Conchita has been stealing from my wine collection! I have checked the cellar and yes there are bottles of Tempranillo, Sangiovese and Merlot missing ( could be BBO though) but then again my bookkeeping on these matters can be a bit erratic at times. I however feel betrayed, I brought my helper over from Columbia for her unique cleaning skills on a 457 Visa. I offered her the median wage of $55K per year and the usual requirement that she accompany my main Man, Hudson to the ATM to withdraw $500 every week to put back to our housekeeping fund. What more can I do?

Fear not Earl. I can put you in touch with helpers who can take your wine for a far lower annual wage. I can have them drain the contents and return the bottles with an appropriate substitute. Might even do it myself.

I had to push many children aside to get on the free rides before 11am. Also had to shove some kids and grannies aside to get selfies with the players .I am surprised so many turned up to sunny St Kilda and next year I will be selling some merch to the kids from the famous Garwick. 

That is if we haven't been bulldozed by the white shoe brigade.

Well your pay is certainly reasonable Earl but does Conchita  adhere to the ..err .. "appropriate" dress code for one of her station?

As the for above "wines", you should be thankful they are gone from your collection. Fill the gaps with some decent shiraz.

Conchita Wurst by any chance Earl?

I recall someone pushing Mrs. Redleg out of the way, it must have been you.

Fortunately for Biff he did not push Mrs OD as the wrath of a Collingwood supporting grand mother would have been more than he could have defended.

With or without her umbrella!

Wouldn't think so Moon. One of Earl Hood's aristocratic background and breeding would insist on his maids being clean shaven, surely?

Yes, but Earl is a sophisticate with great taste in emerging music talent. Amongst other, er, how shall I say...... dutiful obligations, I reckon he'd like his servants to sing for their supper.
