DC hasn't reported in tonight,I think he might be kicking a few goals in Glen Iris right now.

Finally recovered from the  ....excesses .. excitement of Saturday at the G.  Bumped into Biffen pre game and couldn't shake him off so consequently had to put up with his loutish and drunken behavior throughout the afternoon.

There were good looking sheilas nearby and your old Uncle might have struck up a conversation were it not for my immediate company. Anyway, as if sensing my discomfort, Biffen proposed a post game celebratory drink and offered to shout. (That is, shout something other than obscenities).

We decamped to an absolute dump of a pub where Biffen purchased a bottle of horse [censored] that had apparently been mislabeled as Shiraz. Well I had to reciprocate .....

What has my life become .................?

 

 

I recall the afternoon differently to our debauched uncle bitters. 

I arrived at Fed square nice and early so as to deliver my theories on modern feminism to my adoring public. The throng were soon enthralled ( particularly accepting of my idea that lesbianism will increase due to the absence of real men in modern society). Soon after I had delivered the lecture and was receiving congratulate drinks from my undergraduate fans when who should interlope with his Brown stained vinyl jacket than the flatulent one himself.

more later as I have a pressing g mer a tile arrangement to attend to...

Sounds painful.

Mercantile rather.

Once again technology has destroyed my perfect syntax.

Biffen, during this 'meeting', did you and Uncle Bitter manage to avoid attracting the attention of the local constabulary?

Now listen everybody while there is a quiet moment. I have it on very good authority ( a tradey I frequently employ who is shagging one of Earl Hood's maids). Apparently everyone in the Earl's household is walking on eggshells. The Earl is beside himself that he did not get a sniff in the Australia Day Awards. Now I'm sure he will crack tough. but this combined with the reversals from his Cuban adventure could push him over the edge.

We all know what the aristocracy (tories)  can do in these circumstances! Fishnet stockings, garter belt, a rope and hope for a happy ending!!!

Feeling the Earls pain here.

Disgusting in this age of innovation and free trade that the unselfish efforts of the earl are not suitably recognised.

Although I may be incorrect with some of this statement!???????

 

Please Ignore

Haven't participated in any of the wonderful conversations that occur on this thread since this apparently unsent missive.

Cant seem to delete the reference and hope this submission clears it .

Was concerned about the outcome of proceedings given the sudden interruption.

Was Bitter overcome by the Poor quality shiraz

Was Biffen affected by the g mer a tile arrangement

Was DC overcome by his outing coinciding with a Dees win

The coincidences of victory can often leave an addled and confused state , similar to that evidenced by Malcolm on finally achieving the prize but not knowing what to do next. 

I hope our players are receiving appropriate post match remedial treatment to ensure that the next match continues their astonishing rise and the unfamiliar territory of winning.

Oh ... and just to add to any confusion from the conglomeration of posts above, DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT listen to Biffen when he gives a "sure thing" tip on the races. Now excuse me while I put my idiot's cap back on and give my ( poorer but wiser) self a jolly good flogging.

Just Mabel,

But I have a sneaking suspicion ASIO has been following Bitters for crimes against fashion and human decency.

I picked a good weekend to go away on a tantric retreat, thus avoiding the footy with Bitters and Biff (and by the sounds of it, Maple and maybe even dc). I'm guessing there were many in that area at the G who went home sans wallet. How else would that motley crew afford to eat slop and drink cheap wine at a inner city pub? Shameful, but not unexpected.

Moons I for one want us to celebrate our broad MFC church of followers. While Uncle, Biff, Maple and yourself are off celebrating in their own unique ways, there is my good self hurrying off quickly after the siren on Saturday to attend the Vice Chancellor's dinner at Melbourne University to award to me, my honourary doctorate in Latin American Politics! It is just overdue recognition for my untiring work in opening up Cuba to Obama and the US and the Rolling Stones in concert and  guava paste research and my tireless efforts to access their bananas for export! 

As usual I am humbled by the honours thrown my way but it is understandable given my tireless work on behalf of others! 

Too right Earl. Well deserved. I thought I saw foItage of you on stage at the Stones' Cuba concert accepting grand applause from one and all. Or was it Barack? Cannot recall. Oh well, equally worthy of praise. 

Just got back from a short break on the GC.

Ate at Etsu a great Japanese Restaurant on Monday night.

Last time I was there in summer I sat next to Prestia and Currie and their girlfriends. 

This time I saw Gary Ablett and his wife there.

It is obviously a favourite place of some of the GC players.

BTW the food as usual was great.

Given Bitter's critique of his last outing with Biffen, they shouldn't invite you along next time then?

Imagine being at a table eating with Biff and Bitter. It would be like a scene out of Le Grande Bouff.

They have no taste at all Red. For them, eating out would mean dining at that famous Scottish restaurant McDonalds. And they'd sneak in a cheap flaggon of something vaguely similar to wine. Not to mention letching all over the young staff.

As I mentioned earlier ,my grandfather would turn in his grave if he knew I was eating Japanese food.So I will happily join Red at Vue de Monde once he has rogered someone in the court room and is in the mood to shout.
