Love the McDonalds fudge sundae.  A shocking admission, I know.  Also get a flat white at the same time, which is perhaps passable.  The hamburgers are of course, homogenised and lacking the taste of those sizzling and charring at the local shop.

Always wary of Maccas after a guy that used to own/run a nightshift business for their burger buns and frappa mix told me they used some sort of silica type powder as part of the mix (approx 10% in the buns or thereabouts if i recall correctly) and to never eat / drink those two products.

Golly i'm old enough to recall seeing these guys.

Had two hits and i recall they sounded a bit ho hum / flat.

Might have played the Manhattan or the Burvale.  Either way i remember sticky carpets and i never wanted to go back haha.

The glug was the best.  Didn't mind the orange one either was that the Razz.  If you didn't get gold writing (rarely) i seem to recall it was always red otherwise.  Maybe black.

And deaver what Sacrilege!  Wait till it melted then down the hatch!  Wasted on those Windsor fellas.

Their still going especially in Nsw.

They had " Show me some discipline."

"Alone with you tonight."

" Happy man."

Some great riffs amongst those three.

I’m pretty sure it was called a pine-lime Splice, as opposed to slice. They came in raspberry as well. They were great in that they were a hybrid of ice-cream and icy pole. 

Pine Lime Splice - one of my fav’s. 
 

No problem with prices of banana’s at the moment. Hope you’re all well here. 
 

Club and a couple of individuals are under fire at the moment, club must hold strong and reload for 2024. 
 

Id suggest a meeting of players and a commitment amongst themselves - Would be ideal for everyone to be on the same page. Clock is always ticking while the window is open. 
 

The raspberry splice isn’t bad either. Continue pls.

Why are people discussing ice creams, we have a GF to win, oh wait a minute.

Whoops.

Always liked the Streets Comet, an oldy but a goody. Like the pun?

I recal the Calippo but not the comet.

Sorry it was the Sennitts' Comet. It was a chocolate and mint combo, delicious.

That reads a bit like the lyrics of the odd David Bowie top 40 hit.

I believe he would often write parallel interchanging lyrics, which may have rhymed in places, but the topics from either verse had anything to do with the other.

Lets hope all the boys are on the same page by the time we get to 24.

H_T, any relation to yeh olde d'lander, High Tower?

In today's world I I feel nothing but sadness. However a first world problem has today come to my notice and I cannot leave it hidden. 

Where have the Bananas gone? I visited 4 stores in my part of Melbourne two stores had none, one store had a dozen very green ones and Aldi had 3 yes 3 only which I bought. I asked where are the bananas? Three shrugged their shoulders and one said we have not had delivers for 4 days. This is all too much how do I go on past Thursday?

I wonder what the median age of posters is on Dl?

 

Edit:  'Boomer' age range is 59 to 77 so they represent approx 35% of DL per that poll. 

 

Discussion is in this thread

After 'straight-sets-squared', all the age bracket labels need to be shifted up one line.

Yes, but always found it a little petite.

Like eating a party pie, instead of a real one.

Not really, it's just a lot more pastry and very little meat, or whatever is inside.

May I join in?

Who has ever stopped at two?

Ice creams on the other hand: Does anyone have two in a sitting?

Cue memories of Peter's Two-In-Ones...
