Which if you could retrospectively, would have saved 1055 posts of absolute nonsensical drivel, of fantastical dreams that never happened, of characters that never existed?

I was devastated to hear about Eddie McGuire during the current outbreak. Apparently he's fine.

 

 

 

 

 

I'll see myself out...

And what a loss to the literary world that would have been!!!

I know I have posted on this technique before, but the Indian squat makes toilet paper redundant. 

How do you think I coped during the Italian and Spanish Civil Wars, let alone on my hunting and fishing exploits.

Clean, hygienic and efficient. And forget the gym. Its a great way to strengthen your quads, improve core strength and lower back, and for old guys like myself, improves balance out of sight. The other benefits include fertilizing your veggie patch, pot plants and roses. 

Garden paths, front porches, outside the backdoor and driveways should be avoided. .

Close to the fence of unpleasant neighbours, preferably close to a back door or open window is therapeutic for controlling anger and mood.

Perhaps, seems to run in the family. I must admit that in urban environments I always travel with a roll of toilet paper given the unsanitary nature of public toilets. Also to prevent arrest from the constabulary. They need greater ethnicity in the ranks of those in blue. 

We are in times of change Uncle and our behaviours must change. That includes your local massage joint and even chores and rituals in the Manor.  Have you had to stand down the maid or does she have something to fall back on?

“ Stand down the maid “ ! Don’t be silly Ernie.  Who else is going to massage my tinnea ?

In fact, I am considering expanding the hired help at The Manor

I am currently searching for a butler. Something new - after all,  I’ve never been buttled before.

If this site makes you unhappy, you are free to depart and leave it to those who enjoy it, of which there are thousands.

You’re a bit testy Red.  
Our good Earl Hood was merely being humorous

I hear Alan Jones' ex butler is looking for work, with benefits.

Yes, these times are testing my finely tuned sense of humor.

Sorry Red should have added a smiley ? face I guess. Although looking at my post the only inaccuracy was that I meant 1055 pages and 26000 plus posts. All the rest stands. I mean we have a dead writer who blew his brains out 60 years ago still providing input, albeit, quite insightful, to this thread! A frog from WA with a fetish for bananas, someone who thinks he is the ghost that walks in Burwood, and not to speak of a sexual deviant from Romsey who means well but it’s that tinnea thing that keeps us from fully engaging. And what’s with the Moon guy? You see it is all an allusion. 

Red you realise that it is just you and me that are real in all these posts but then again I am not totally sure about you. It maybe it is just me who is real in this prolongated pantomime. After all I am the Earl of Hood, no one can dispute that. 


Haven't been on for a couple of weeks. Have had better ones so I may have missed comment but is there any one else who is [censored] off with AFL players? The world is crashing around us and they seem to be demanding 50+ % of their salaries for doing nothing. Have they not noticed the thousands who are now without $1 of income. This lot is making me sick. May be what finally pushes out away from the game.

  • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

    What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

  • 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.
