Please tell me you made that up Biff. Surely professional broadcasters would not have such a conversation as this.

where was there any mention of professional broadcasters, choke?

Dear Bitters,

Thank you for the herbal remedy you sent from Northern China.

I awoke with a start at 5am and my IBS has cleared up but the same cannot be said for the toilet at the Gat.Powerful stuff.

Speaking of powerful stuff,

As I am unaccustomed to rising so early I switched on SEN for some tennis results.

Brett Phillips was reporting to some other twot and Dermie,the GOAT,when a player from Moldovia was mentioned.

They naturally defer to Professor Dermie for this one ,

"Moldovia Derm?" they humbly beg the all knowing(now) tennis officionado.

As if arising from a slumber Derm slowly proffers........"errr.......that's somewhere in the Balkans" (not quite).

"Speaking of the Balkans Bernard Tomic is in trouble again for swearing"

"But it wasn't in a language that anyone actually understands".Now turning his talents to linguistics.

Dermie then goes on to rate the merits of another Tennis players girlfriend before offering his thoughts on Tomics future to Brett.

"He'll need to stop the histrionics" .Indeed.

[censored]

I would be interested to hear Dermies theory on the Geopolitical repercussions of Brexit and its implications for the currency market.

 

Sorry Biff I think I sent you 3 times cut guava paste - sue Earl Hood _ if he survives.

RE Dermie.

I've long held the view that Dermie is a complete dick head on all matters but footy. A bit like Warnie on all but cricket.

But it is really interesting how his delivery (speech not leggies) has been trained over the years. You'll note he has been taught to pause and enunciate slowly to feign a considered opinion.

Of course he can pause as long as he likes - you cannot produce strawberry jam out of pig shite!

DC, they keep making up words, many of these come from people that can only type with their thumbs FCS!

Personally any word not appearing in a dictionary printed since our most recent flag has no right to be considered. I will not waiver until we have another flag, then by all means have your "mealstrom" you can even include farnarkle for all I care.

How has Bitters avoided being thrown into a Malaysian lockup?

Given that Anwar Ibrahim has been locked up for alleged activities that would be minor offences on the Bitter list of interests. i  know he is not a politician but he is a white Australian who would not go unnoticed in the police state that is Malaysia.  I think it fortunate that he got out in time.

where are you? I am having an ale at Hemingway's Brewery at the Marina in Port Douglas as I write this but you are no where to be seen! The place only opened two weeks ago so don't tell me you got bored with the humid weather and headed south. You gave me the slip in Havana last year, now Port Douglas.

I have been somewhat insensitive as I just realised that today marks the 55 anniversary of Ernest's uhm, err, shall we say untimely death; no wonder he was in no mood for an ale at his own brewery last evening.

i must admit, it is not the Ernest of old contributing to this narrative. I have lost a lot of weight and enjoyment for life. I am sorry Earl for not catching up with you but I am in a mid winter mood swing when I prefer to be alone with my thoughts. I appreciate that I am still remembered and perhaps valued in a small way. I find that I am no longer able to write and my last novel has been shelved. I feel it will never be written and all that I am now able to do is write short posts on this site, particularly this thread that is so ambiguous and full of fellow eccentrics and the odd egocentric. I hope for good news tomorrow at the bull ring.

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
