Hope we don't lose again this weekend.

Don't worry, just buy a nice bunch of bananas for your physical and emotional well-being. 

However, you could further indulge.

Perhaps try watching some repeats of Bananas in Pyjamas. 

You could take the opportunity to improve your knowledge on the banana.  Its nouns, adjectives, synonyms, derived terms, foreign language meanings, pronunciation, racial significance, freudian relevance etc. There is also the banana's significance as a figure of speech, its allegorical meanings, not to forget its relevance as a metaphor or analogy.  Really a limitless subject. 

Just think Red of all that time you will have researching, talking about and writing about bananas. Engage your analytical mind.

You don't need to worry about footy or searching for salacious stories contained in case law and the ratio decidendi or obiter dicta of your extensive law library.  We have enough salacious [censored] bits from other posters on this thread. That just lowers the standard and of course the tone. Wrong side of the tracks and all that.

Funny you should mention bananas, as I had a banana smoothie today that was excellent. It was at the bakery cafe on Burke Road near Toorak Road in Auburn I think the suburb is.

The smoothie was ice cold which I love and contained honey, cocoa, chia, skim milk and magnificent banana.

Demonland and this thread have a great deal in common with the great Leonard Cohen who spent six years of his life before he became famous on the Greek Island of Hydra. This book explains what kept him alive during that time.

Greetings lawyers and other ne'er do wells.

Your good old Uncle is heading orf to Westralia tomorrow, followed by a trekking adventure to Darwin.

I shall be avoiding scat throwers in Freemantle and attempting to turn Demon frogs into road kill.

The maid shall remain at The Manor, so no doubt I will be inundated with beautiful women hoping to accompany me.

Be assured I shall put them through an arduous selection process.

One trusts you might run into Ethan somewhere in the glorified ore mine that is WA and impart some of your provincial wisdom upon him.Perth seems to have given him delusions of social adequacy.

Will one of your fine servants be chauffeuring you and the missus in the 4WD Rolls? If not, you may want to contact Demonland's very own Westralian frog. I hear he's a terrific driver and loves a jolly good flogging. Safe travels Uncle, make sure you turn your watch back 30 years

Ernie, I think a Freudian slip has engaged the auto censor, tidbits may be what you were looking for. Uncle B on the other hand would no doubt be thinking TlTS

Uncle, sounds like you are traveling with your friend Alter Ego.  

Don't bother with the selection process, just take a sack of money, you will need it. Remember, they will not have seen a photo of you. 

In case all goes pear shaped, take a bunch of bananas for entertainment. May also come in handy if you get lost in the never never. 

Oh, one more thing, you better make sure they have motorized buggies for your "trek."

uncle, you will need to check with the the department of agriculture and food, western australia's (dafwa) quarantinewa service regarding your fungal infection. would hate to see you turned back at the border

I must say I was quite chuffed by all the above encouragement .It resulted in a very emotional discharge 

Trawled through a few pubs last night. Must say there was a surprising number of drunks and derros about the place. I would usually thrash such types but I considered that Ethan may have been one of them and demonstrated considerable restraint 

re your queries dc

No “Special” guests.

I had considered WA’s quarantine laws and thus wrapped my offending pinkies in glad wrap pre flight. Nevertheless I was approached by a sniffer dog at the airport. Oddly the poor beast had some form of convulsion and began foaming at the mouth. Fatigue I suppose

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
