Been a mixed week so far for poor old Uncle Bitter.

1.I'm helping Biffen tidy up some of his messy business interests. Interesting but his promise of financial reward seems unlikely.

2. Visited my GP today and she advised me not to make any long term plans.

3.Finally some mirth. Pendles and his missus named their sprog "Jax" . FM where does that come from? I suppose the filth supporters will consider it sophisticated. Jax!!! FMD!!

that's apple iphone auto-predictive text for you, uncle

next they'll do away with teachers ......... just plug babies directly into a computer at birth and leave it to dr google and professor apple

and names will be replaced by numbers (just like footballers)

I could cope with that.

Make sure your passport is up to date and that your date is passable (in a doctor way)

Good Lord!!

 

Just finished the week attempting to help Biffen tidy up his affairs at the Gat.

It's cost me fuel for the Merc, tolls, lunches etc. Plus the physical burden of moving his equipment.

Neither a word of thanks nor any of his promised recompense.

[censored] ingrate!

 

It's been a bad week for me too Uncle. A slight accident on the way home yesterday, taking a short cut via Merri Creek.

Toiges fans will be doing their 'nana tonight. 

Well we can now wash ourselves of that silly game of football for the year. Was intruding on the serious pursuits; crosswords  jigsaws and truffle hunting.

Word from brethren north is the yellow cropping not as harshly affected by nasty weather as possibly might have been but dont expect cheap fruit. 

Might buy and freeze...one needs a supply for daiquiris ;)

Close enough!


Dear Uncle I got given a home made Shiraz called "Dirty Olman", circa 2011 I have had a glass of this previous and it tasted great. Given your social contacts and ability to move in ever diminishing rare circles of confounded conolutions, I wondered being of simlar volition to the main entreaty! Have you ever come across this delicious Drop?

Well picket, I've been called a "Dirty Olman" on more occasions than I can remember but, as to that particular libation, the answer is no.

Try a Cabernet next time. Has much superior genetic cache. Stop slumming in lowly Shiraz land.

Wash your mouth out with caustic soda skinny - shiraz is the king of wines.

I can't imagine picket drinking anything but cheap red Earl. After all, he is not of the genteel class.

Still we must indulge the hoi polloi from time to time I suppose

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
