Good Doctor I see your point but I think you might be overestimating Bitter's ability to moderate to any real effect. Mostly he'd be correcting poor English and encouraging jolly good floggings. He is never moderate.

i agree. spare the rod and spoil the brat. bitters is obviously in denial of his immoderations

I'd say something about BBO never sparing his rod but that pocketbook Freudian, Moonie would take it the wrong way.

A question of whether I'm overestimating or you're underestimating, Mr Shadow. Of course I'd like to think Uncle Bitters would confine himself to the techniques of correction he's familiar with, but I can't help but worry that one way or another he'll get ahead of himself. Then there'd be two of him, a situation surely to be feared.

While many appear to be having their bit of fun at their Uncle's expense I have been (fruitlessly) trying to track down Biffen - the most immoderate of all.

I allowed him to borrow some ..err ..specialist equipment of mine which has not been returned as agreed. He has subsequently boldly informed all that he attended a teenagers birthday party.

Now put those two facts together and you can see the urgency of my search.

Please have him contact me immediately.

BTW. Who is attending on Saturday?

Why would you do this in the first place?

You must either be a very, very rich man or you already have a substantial reserve of disinfectant.

Incorrect Choke! I am simply an overgenerous soul who just goes out of his way to help others out but is often taken advantage of.

PS. Yes I am very rich but I am quite modest about having a lavish property and driving a simple Merc.

You are a national treasure Mable. I hope the people of your native Cameroon recognise this!

Thanks Uncle Bitter.

Your navigation is a wee bit off. You went kind of askew after the Ca. Been enjoying a bit of that hollistic fruit juice again?

I'll be attending the game. After all it is part of my annual ritual to see how far away I am from the ground before I spot your outlandish attire.

By the by, what should I be looking out for on Saturday?

Uncle Bitter, I found a present for you and the lads! It is a 1.2 metre tall inflatable J. Hogan doll. Tried to attach a pic but the file was too big

Well I don't want to disclose my choice of outfit as there are petty souls out there who will rush of to imitate me.

However, dare  I ask Mable  Mable ,will you be wearing traditional Cameroonian attire? It is rather fetching I must say!

No Bitters all on Demonland would like to know your attire. Maple might be very fetching but I suspect your get up promises to be outlandish. Despite your modesty I suspect you would like all the attention particularly from the Demon Damsels!

They couldn't imitate you if they tried Uncle Bitter.  

As for my attire, I was going to wear something a tad more inconspicuous.

I suppose we have a bit in common Ernie - attracted the sheilas, adventurers, second rate writers - but at least I haven't topped myself!!

Maple think of the scene from Pricilla Queen of the Desert with flowing robes on top of a bus and you'll get an idea of Bitter's entry to the MCG on Saturday. Always the showman, unfortunately.

Will you be sporting the depressive maths teacher look with ugly colourful jumper mismatched with slack,long sock and sandals or maybe you'll just run with the reclusive snowdropper turtle neck? I never know with you. 

Ill be wearing plaid and stripes as usual.

I was planning to go relatively incognito. Should either you or Bitters get up to your usual shenanigans, I want to be able to make a quick getaway by blending into the crowd should the need arise.

I'll leave the response to this to the likes of Bitter, Biff, and Moonie.

The last time DC seduced a younger woman they made a sex tape.

I believe they called them silent movies in those days.

Arrgh Biffen - back from the dead apparently! Rumour has it that as a result of the Gat closing you are opening a house of ill repute  new business venture near a major regional centre. Is this true? Could you possibly survive the aroma of gum trees?

BTW Biff. All debts will be revoked if you send me pics from the teenage birthday party.
