Reminds me of this:

The sex life of a man based on his age…

20-40yo - tri-weekly. 
40-60yo - try weekly. 
60yo +    - try weakly.

😁

You are too kind.

Never mind.

First of all there was the pound, slang term quid, this was divided into 20 shillings with one shilling (bob), two shilling (old term florin) coins and a 10 shilling note. A shilling was divided into 12 pennies with three penny (thrup'ny bit) and six penny

A bob as in footy talk.

“The sleeper” - is that another name for “Rock the cradle”???

I haven't been on for a few days. It seems Demonland has suffered a bout of censorship. Are we now so sensitive that we cannot take bad news?

Now you've got me reminiscing about Larry O Dea from C9 s World championship wrestling.

Could have been Ron Miller. Not sure. 

It seemed so real.

It was one of those fads that lasted a while. I remember you could buy the cheaper Fanta yo yos. If memory serves, the coke clear ones were a dollar twenty. Probably collector items now.

Ha.

He was before my time though.

Uglies included killer Karl and Butcher Branigan.

I loved Andre the Giant.

werent no dollars then, deever.  so, that would be 12 shillings, though that seems too dear.  get a bag of genuine strings for sixpence too.

My Fav was the Fanta.

Harder to find than the coke ones now and even rarer to find one in VG to 'near mint' condition.

No.  Still traumatised.  Was only a small kid and I reckon the string was longer than me. 2nd go the yoyo hit the ground and broke in 2.  The rest is history.  Explains everything really.

I found they didn't spin as well.

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are back at the MCG and have a massive challenge ahead of them as they take on Premiership contender the Gold Coast Suns. What do you want to see from the Dees today?

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
