Don’t say that until you see the quality of the booze that the lawyers come up with

You don't like the $3.00 bottles of chardonay and sav blanc at Dan Murphy's?

Snob!

Well that was a fizz !

Put a selection line through Handscombe, Maxwell and Stoinis and start looking for replacements.

A bright light through the series was Carey who must now be in serious consideration for a test birth.

Went out for dinner with the wife and another couple last night and joined by WJ who was solo with his wife away.

I actually thought it was basil Fawlty's restaurant.

The service didn't exist.

No fish or veal as they ran out at 7.00pm.

My wife's meal came 1 hour after the rest of us got ours and was inedible.

WJ and mine came about 20 minutes after the other couple got theirs'.

I actually started to look around for a camera.

As we walked out another table had half the people eating and the other half waiting for their meal.

Lastly we spoke to another table who had been waiting over an hour for something to eat.

I should have gone into the kitchen to say hello to Basil and Manuel.

Agreed! It's possible but the Kiwis lack depth. If their big guns fire they are a chance.

This sort of stuff amazes me. The food industry is highly competitive and notoriously fickle. Places than don't bring their A game consistently don't last.

 

Although if it's frequented by lawyers it must be a seedy establishment anyway.

and the name of this fine establishment Red....so we can avoid !! lol

I've heard that they knew in advance a couple of lawyers were to be there.

Other nights its a hatted restaurant.

Taking a big risk on a major law suit.

Not really, my guess is that responding to me has cost two clients 22 minutes and 47 minutes respectively, (based loosely on ability to pay). Getting them to fund a suit against me may be beyond even your remarkable skills, heaven forbid funding it yourself!

NB: Due to diminished capacity, not worth the effort.

Not suing you, suing the Restaurant. Why would we sue you?

Jointly and severally? No, good point why sue me? Mind you we did place a huge takeaway order just as you arrived.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
