I remember when I invented the choc spearmint shake at the local milkbar when 1 part Chocolate and i part Spearmint were added to ice cold milk and double malt!! Delicious!!

Australians have a strange definition for a milkshake.  Or maybe Canadians do. Where I come from from, what you call a milkshake, we call flavoured miljk (that should be milk; can't fix the typo). Your thickshakes are our milkshakes.

    I have discovered an alarming issue, there don't appear to be banana milkshakes. There is chocolate, strawberry, caramel and vanilla usually, but you don't see banana flavour.

    This is outrageous.

    Looking in wrong places I reckon

    Is that a good or a bad thing? I haven't seen the movie.

    Time to DIY, Redleg. We have a milkshake maker that someone gave the kids a while back --- like one of the old style ones with the metal cup that gets put around a central pole that whizzes it up. Get one of those, your own supply of bananas, and you are away. On the latter, I am sure that Earl could supply them, with his contacts in parts tropical and his warehouse full of cigars and guava paste ...

    Still available at the little shop I buy shakes at locally however I have not had one for a few weeks.

    I will report back.

    On an equally serious note it is not easy to buy a milkshakes anywhere and do not ask for Malt they look at you as though you come from Mars.

     

    I thought for you OD the word 'Malt' was always preceded by the word 'single' :lol::)

    Well, Saw grossed me out and I hated Napoleon Dynamite. I liked Forrest Gump, The Man Without a Face made me cry, and I remember laughing at a scene in Nightmare on Elm Street 4. Cool Runnings is one of the funniest movies I have seen and the Untouchables is one of my fav films. Oh, and I generally want to punch certain actors in the face because they annoy me, usually Travolta is on that esteemed list. Does that help you to figure out whether or not I might think the comparison to the Pulp Fiction scene is good or bad?

    Nah, Oldie will get a custom-made Segway that they can strap him into upright.

    That's an extremely risky option Maple. Are you sure there won't be major collateral damage assocIated with this zany suggestion?

    Probably worth a look on youtube.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.
