It's about not mentioning a Dees' traitor, who was our pick number 1 in that year's draft and any other matter that is not absolutely accurately proved beyond all doubt and otherwise discussing every other topic that has been, is now or will be in the future.

Good to see that you've finally given up your protest at games with those bags of dollars.

You made a good showing Sir.

Only kidding. I did admire that guys dedication. Kind of on par with those grand prix protesters.

I never threw any money at him, GWS did that and he got plenty.

I don’t admire anything about him.

I was talking about that guy who protested at all the games with those imitation bags of money.

Yes I remember him, that was funny.

Having just ready the past 2 pages I can only conclude that Round 0 cannot come soon enough.

For today's question to ponder " is margarine more or less yellow than butter"?

Margarine is basically pure white until they add dye.

Fun fact - Margarine is an extremely dense energy source and while it is difficult to light, once it gets going it burns powerfully with a LOT of black smoke.

This lesson was learned the hard way in Sweden when a truck transporting a shipment of margarine crashed in a tunnel. The petrol caught fire and the flame was intense enough to get the margarine to light, at which point the entire tunnel had to be evacuated immediately.

On the bright side, they drove two more trucks through; one full of salmon and the next with potato and herbs, and at the end everyone had a lovely dinner.

I believe Marlon Brando was an expert on this subject.

Less yellow before the dye, but often more yellow than high quality butter until the butter has been exposed to air for some time and developed that rich yellow colour 😍 I'm hungry now

Yeah nah, not an option, OD. If I have to drag my sad n sorry [censored] up the steps to get on the plane, so be it. I’m not missing being at this match. I have only a mild case and I’ve done everything I can for the past week to get better. I’m going to Sydney no matter what.

The censored word starts with A and ends with SS

Can't wait!

Thanks Deeves 💕

I’ve had it once before, years ago and it was an awful experience. This time it’s way milder so I’m hoping to be ok to go to our opening round match. Fingers crossed. As well as…

 

And?😟...

I used to embarrass my much higher income brother because when he'd take me to some of Melbourne's elite restaurants I'd be asking for more bread every time a waiter was in sight. Premium bread with quality butter is my happy place.

In these adventures, once upon a time I had some of the world's best bread with some of the world's best butter.

You could tell. It was bliss.

On me. I’m NOT getting pinged $65 for exceeding the 7kg limit. First interstate match I attended was in Adelaide. Going home (we won that match 😁) the bag-weighing guy pulled me up for being 500g over and expected me to pay that ridiculous amount. So, right there in front of all and sundry I opened my case and proceeded to put all articles of clothing on, including three beanies. I looked like the Michelin Man but managed to not be slugged $65. Stick that up your Khyber, Jetstar 🤨

I'll come back to the recent foregoing in due course, for my regular dose of amusement and befuddlement, but I must report something I've discovered while researching for a puzzle (not for here; breathe easy!), that might fit the entry criteria of this thread:

Australia had never had a Prime Minister with a surname longer than 7 letters (7 of those, and 11 6s, 4 5s, and 5 4s). Until, that is, the last three in a row: TURNBULL, MORRISON, ALBANESE!

Curse inflation!

Well lets get back to the shorter names.

I note Dutton is 6 letters.
