Sorry to interrupt the love fest peeps but is it time to become a Republic based on the coronation celebrations?

Who do you want to dig you out of the snow, a St Bernards or a beagle with ambition?

The political system has thrown up Prime Ministers Morrison, Abbot, Rudd, Turnbull, Keating, etc.   Shrinking violets to the man with hubris unknown.  Be Afwaid be vewy vewy Afwaid — (Elmer Fudd c. 1956)  Any mention of a recent State Premiers will cause this thread to self-combust.

    Not to forget the unbelievable Bertie Beetle show bag, a perennial favourite.

    Yes... queue was often immense &/or they were sold out by time you got there.

    Seem to recall Bertie being a mostly 'Show' cult fan fav vs outside of there 🤔

    They should get rid of picnics, nuts do not belong with chocolate just like pineapple doesn't belong on a pizza.

    Pineapple pizza... culinary cardinal sin!

    Bit harsh on the choco side though Azz!  

    Some choc coated peanuts perhaps?  Sultanas?

    Now that i know you're into pineapples, how about my late old man's fav below?  Problem with this one was if you only liked one or two sections the rest usually ended up in the bin.

    The chocolate on a violet crumble sticks too firmly to the honeycomb.  The choclate on a crunchie can be nibbled off leaving the honeycomb to be wolfed down.  This is the correct way to eat a crunchie but don't let anyone watch you.  They may come over all unnecessary.

    A good contribution to an important discussion.

    Yes the Freddo Frog was a bigger seller back then.

    While the frog could be plain chocolate or filled with different fillings, Bertie made do with some honeycomb bits in the chocolate.

    I'm betting that daisycutter chose his showbags based on which ones contained a phantom comic 

    At the risk of changing the topic, I was never into the Phantom, I was a Superman boy.

    Can we ever forget the White Knight bar?

    I had until now. What about the crazy maze? Or was it Krazy maze, is it still around?

    Also haven't seen the pepermint crisp around. My mom used to smash it up and decorate the old Pavlova. 

    I also remember the Coleman's chips showbag. Bags were all under a dollar and were good value.

    Phantom was frew publishing

    Apologies Daisycutter. I had a Phantom book from the early 90s published by DC but it might have been a re-print/re-boot.

    Oh no, I love pineapple flavoured lollies and the goo in the snack bar. Strawberry goo in a strawberry Freddo is da bomb!

    No I'm not harsh on nuts being in chocolate, it ruins chocolate and should be made illegal with punishment of death.

    Serious question guys.

    How come everytime I try and load a photo onto a DL post it says too large, when everyone else loads videos, large photos etc.

    What am I doing wrong.

    Could be that you've ran out of attachment allotment. You only get 39mb (well that's my limit) so you may have to delete some old attachments.

    Either that or what you are attaching exceeds the total attachment size of 10mb

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.
