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.

A special once off for Haley's Comet?

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.

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

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
