What’s wrong with just plain and simple colouring? Why “mindful” colouring?

Love mindful colouring exercises! It really does help just zoning in on one thing. Especially if you're like me with the monkey mind all day!

Having said that it is funny when you see things branded as 'mindful colouring' because it is really just a colouring book and I doubt that any scientific research has gone into making it more mindful.

They need a tag to sell it.

It’s like Uncle Bitter’s wine casks being labelled “aged” or “premium “.

True. Another good one is 'Adult colouring books'

I was hoping for a draw tonight, as it is painful to see Blues or Cats win.

Draw would have been fun 

I am ashamed to admit it .... but .....I was barracking for Geelong.

I just wanted to see Carlton nutted on the line.

I keep letting bananas run down to their brownest. Don't get me wrong it's great for smoothies but am I enjoying the richness of the banana in this short time we have on planet Earth? 

I'll let the viewers decide..

I was the opposite BBO, no one has done what Geelong did to us on that fateful 186 day and I will never forgive them and wish them a loss everytime they play and pray for their downfall.

I call it a win-win game for us (unless it is a draw, which has its own compensations).

Can’t understand why May flew up there. Surely it would be better for him to have stayed in Melbourne if there was doubt. Can’t see how being stuck in a plane for 5 hours return is beneficial.

Anyone got a torch?

Well that gane showed the dark side of football.

Wine casks? That's how he labels himself!

It's like that song this weekend;

What a knee, what a knee, what a might good knee.

Lot of quizzes on Demonland lately.

 

Interesting to read that several ex Hawk Premiership players that he coached, are not friendly with Clarkson. He has apparently burnt 🔥 a lot of his players.

Very interesting. Could be an Alex Ferguson character.

Didn’t Ferguson’s players play for him?

Having a coffee with Mrs Redleg in cafe and she asked me how was the coffee.  I said “average “ and she fined me for dissent. I asked if she would like to take up umpiring, as that showed a real flair for it.

How was the Cask De Shiraz 2023, after the Sydney win Uncle?

I am sure it would have gone wonderfully with those bbq shapes and cheddar cheese.

At the time they did, it was more after the fact when he released his autobiography and potted several of his stars. Bit strange actually.

Longmire just said on AFL Tonight that Hayward was not dissenting to the umpire, but instead was speaking to a Melbourne player. Only problem with that was that he was staring straight at the umpire, when he complained about a free paid by that umpire against him and there was no Melbourne player nearby. Sparrow was the nearest Melbourne player and he was nowhere near Hayward and Hayward wasn’t facing him when the dissent call was made.

Sometimes it might be better to just let things be, rather than putting your foot in your mouth.

 

Yes Red. Obvious bull [censored] !

Seems hard to argue that a Melbourne player was the target -- none of them are even looking at Hayward, and as you said, Hayward is eyeballing the umpire. Horse must be on something strange to be arguing that ...
