sorry to hear you are passed, pf, however you must be mistaken in your geography. there is nothing palatial in romsey nor is there anything remotely resembling a mansion. are you sure you didn't over-inbibe, get lost and end up in caroline springs?

Dear Uncle Bitters, went passed palatial Romsey today ( on business) and spied a gent on the side of a hill on some acreage sunning himself on the Balcony of a palatial mansion with two cucumbers over his eyes sipping a beverage of some description in a state of absolute euphoria! 

Not sure why but i thought of you!!!

Just a question PF.

On the cucumbers:

were they full cucumbers or just cucumber circles?

Also,if the drink wasn't cheap red from a silver bag then it is likely to be a normal decent person and not Bitters.

You can carjack your way from Caroline Springs to the CBD in under 20 minutes now.

Romsey on the other hand is not worth the trip.

Pity you didn't drop in picket. Still I suppose being so close to wealth, class and style overawed you.

PS. I shall ignore the inane chattering above.

Well, well, well... what an interesting day it has been on 'Land.

Arguements, mass post deletions, name calling, moderator threats, tears and breaches of poster privacy...

And that's just on the 'Lost Kitten' thread!

Gotta love the personalities in this gin joint!

I have graced Lorne tonight with my presence. Is it true Max Gawn's parents run a cafe here? I'm pretty sure they would sell hash cookies.

Pretty sure Gawny's family cafe is down the Gippsland coast Ethan.

May sure you have a beer at the Wye River pub if you are heading that way. Great view.

Good meals there too. The Prickly Moses Ale and the Forest Brewery Silvertop Ale are great local drops.

Also try the scallop pie or seafood mornay pie from the A Bay bakery. 

No, I don't have shares in those joints!

Ignore the infidels Ethan! I grant you permission to enter Romsey before your return to the Empire's outpost. You can see how people of quality live and ,for a precious moment, feel part of a better world.

You will be a better person for the experience.

Picket if I thought you had any discernment, notion of class, taste for quality red or fine dining, I'd invite you out to the manor to help you get over this shock. However, since are obviously bereft of such traits I shall leave you to wallow in your own nasty little trough.

Bwahaha Bwahaha !!!!

You can get a nice pot of Carlton at the Lorne pub these days for about $28.

I don't know what all the complaining was about, yes the trees are still charcoal but the undergrowth was looking particularly lush and rejuvenated and there are no more of those annoying koalas around.

I went through Moggs Creek after holding one in for a few hours hoping I could unload on a statue of Dangerfield which the town had erected but couldn't find it.

You could sculpt one out of your stool Ethan. Might be quite a work of art. You could title it 'The Tremblay Danger'

If it looked like a cross between Dangerfield and Jesus I could sell it on EBAY.

May need to mount it on a block of timber and perhaps varnish it.Polish it even.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
