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.

Does anyone else feel awkward when you're eating a banana and make eye contact with another man? 

Not me. I am currently in FNQ and eating bananas every day and haven't noticed any men looking at me, women yes, men no.

And what about the banana Earl?  If it's not straight, it must be an LGBTI banana.

BJ I looked at importing bananas from Cuba last year to overcome the darstardly Panama disease but all Cuban bananas bend to the left as you look at them. So they are not straight but both Castro bothers assured me there is no such thing as LGBTI anything in Cuba, it is just Western capitalist propaganda so if it is bent, at least to the left it can also be straight!

Moons I think Julia should be setting up a consultancy available to both sides to guide them through the art of negotiation first to form a minority government, then how to work legislation through that circus, called the senate. For all that she was vilified by the conservative press and a clod like Abbott who could not negotiate his way out of a wet paper bag, she was masterful in negotiating legislation through a near hung lower house and a potentially hostile Senate. Although negotiating sensibly with Pauline might be a bridge too far, even for Julia.

Agree Earl. But don't tell the Andrew Bolt love children on Demonland, they'll bring out all the 'ditch the witch' and 'dump her in the harbour in a hessian sack' insults.


Turnbull will have to learn to negotiate with people he wouldn't normally P%55 on in the real world.

it's a humbling thing for him and I can only sympathise as I have been through it all on Demonland myself.

The outcome of this election is a minor issue for me now.

I am reeling from the news that Lois Lane passed away just last Sunday and this a mere 9 months after the passing of Jimmy Olsen! And we lost Lady Penelope and Wilbur Post earlier this year! These are tragic times indeed. 

Why would I care who will rule this place now?

As a kid I used to watch Mr. Ed just to perv on Wilbur's missus.

BTW. I'm sure you will all be saddened to hear that I have suffered a number of financial reversals since returning from OS and currently find myself a little short of the aarrh "reddies".

So if any rich lawyers or such would care to help out please send your donations to Uncle Bitter C/-  "The Manor" Romsey. A case of Pinot from anyone in a position  to provide that would also be most welcome.

BTW 2. I was watching the lovely Jane Bunns last night and she pointed out that it last snowed in Borewood in 1951! Apparently there is a likelihood of a repeat performance in the coming week. If that is the case dc will need a couple of grey rinsers to keep the blood flowing.

I also have unconfirmed reports that Biffen may currently be snowed in at his establishment that is not a million miles from Ballarat! His hydroponic horticultural pursuits are also taking a beating from the cold spell.

thanks for your kind concern, uncle. is there any chance you could get the squeeze to knit me a nice alpaca jumper to keep the cold at bay in not-so-warm burwood?

As you know dc, I would help you out - were it possible. However, due to the abovementioned "reversals" any sort of requests (from conjugal downward) are .... off the table as it were.

more like an andean condor. the lads should be very nervous

Actually I have chased down dc's avian alter ego -

 

Satyr tragopan (Tragopan satyra)

Humans may joke about getting the horn, but the male satyr tragopan actually grows a pair. They’re electric blue, inflatable, and form a matching set with the bird’s brightly patterned, retractable, bib-like throat lappet. The male brandishes this wacky trio of now-you-see-them-now-you-don’t ornaments during a spectacular courtship display that is rooted heavily in the principle of ‘shock and awe’.

Dc is the type of bird that likes to mix his prospective mate a cup of Horlicks.

Uncle as you know I am waiting for your paperwork. You know some receipts to verify your excessive expenses in China for a start!  Any receipts for expenses We incurred from your Malaysian venture would be a bonus as we never knew you were going there!!!

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

  • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?

  • CASEY: Collingwood

    It was freezing cold at Mission Whitten Stadium where only the brave came out in the rain to watch a game that turned out to be as miserable as the weather.
    The Casey Demons secured their third consecutive victory, earning the four premiership points and credit for defeating a highly regarded Collingwood side, but achieved little else. Apart perhaps from setting the scene for Monday’s big game at the MCG and the Ice Challenge that precedes it.
    Neither team showcased significant skill in the bleak and greasy conditions, at a location that was far from either’s home territory. Even the field umpires forgot where they were and experienced a challenging evening, but no further comment is necessary.
