It seems that, once again, truth wins the day. There actually is a UBO dc.

UNIVERSITÉ DE BRETAGNE OCCIDENTALE 

Based in the Breton port city of Brest, UBO in June 2023 declared an ambition to be known as the "Oceanic university of France". While this aspiration led to some concern that other disciplines might be downgraded, it suits the university’s location and existing profile. 

Founded in 1971, UBO has a roll of around 22,000 students, about two-thirds of them undergraduates, both in Brest and at its base in Quimper. 

The 14,500 undergraduates divide between the faculties of letters and human science, sports and exercise science, science and technology, medicine and health, dentistry and law, economics and management.

The student association motto is 'Brest is best'.

Also, what is going on with the departments there?

sports and exercise science - okay

science and technology - yep

medicine and health - mm-hmm

dentistry and law - WHAT?

Perhaps bitters, perhaps. I went to this job once where the bloke had been dead in a spa-bath for three weeks. The jets in the bath were still going when we walked in. The boss wasn’t too happy when I titled the job “human soup” within the report. I haven’t been able to eat a lamb shank since. 

Ugh. Even regular spas accumulate a layer of white fat residue on the sides just like stewpots do if you don't clean them out right away. Knew a guy who had to drain out and scrape the sides of the AIS heated spas once a fortnight. You wouldn't think all those athletes would leave behind so much fat.

I... respect the necessity of very dark humour. #ganzersyndrome

Bloody hell Goffy! 

I am trying to unremember reading that.

Happy Australia day folks.

 

With so many woke wankers telling me what I should or should or should not celebrate, I went and purchased an Aussie flag to adorn The Manor’s dog ute.

First time I’ve done that. 

( The flag was made in China and purchased from a Lebanese operated thrift shop.  That’s multiculturalism at its best! )

They're celebrating by having a national day of telling Muslims they don't belong.

I wish I was kidding.

The old jewel in the Crown eh..

Do they still bring tiffen out for those that like to safari?

Might organise a hunt .

Looking for Rickshaw and Pallanquin operators as we speak.

Bitters prefers the pallanquin.

I think the bumpy roads play havoc with his gout.

Me-I rough it in the rickshaw and hunt straight from the seat.

If theres a duck at 12 O'clock and I yell DUCK It can really slow down proceedings.

Why does the cricket team have two all rounders?

It's not even like one of them gets to bowl much .

Carey is a good wkeeper but he's no batsman.

We are effectively two batsmen short.

If we lose, it’s because Head and Labuschagne were abysmal this match.

Interesting also that we declared behind the WI score and we are within that deficit now.

Un-Australian.

I'm glad we lost.

Hopefully they'll learn to shut up and just play cricket.

Bad games.

But lost at selecting two all rounders.

We don't need six bowlers given the quality of four of them.

It's just silly choosing Greene and Marsh.

One maybe.

Also there must be other options other than Carey who averages around 23.

But credit to a great effort from a young Wi team.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
