    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

    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.

    Better not. The area is famous for its natural salt production and impenetrable hedges.

    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.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
