Mr Leg how is Briefed's hammy

Appears to be fine. Guess it was track too hard and second up from a spell which is usually his poorest run.

Congratulations on getting this thread to 200 pages Redleg.

As one of the moderators on Demonland, I think our decision to allow it to go beyond the second or third page would be, without doubt, the greatest blunder we've made on the site but now that the damage has been done, please continue ...

Banoffee is a delicacy in Scotland.

Runs a close second to deep fried Mars bars.

Redleg I think you will have a very heavy track at Seymour. (oops! just checked abandoned)

Does anyone know a reliable Handyman looking for work?. (sounds a bit oxymoronish)

Tradies have been letting me down for months.

Good decision Jack. It's a bye for the Dees this weekend, and consequently my first visit to this thread since 13 Feb. Perhaps I should be spending more of my time here ...... it's considerably less depressing.

With all due respect, WJ, please keep making blunders like this one! :blink:

Well 200 pages a Tribute to a little common sense in the crazy world of the MFC.

Who would have thought in July 2011 we would reach this lofty height.

Among many things a tribute to a simple fruit and common sense.

Thanks everyone this thread has kept me sane through some very ordinary times.

I look forward to the 300th page

Good advice I'm sure old dee. Maybe a few of us should have listened more closely to your sage words before the start of the season, .......................... but we shouldn't go down that path now, it could ruin the fabric of this thread, or the thread of this fabric, or something (??).

I certainly feel all warm and fuzzy when I enter the thread. Maybe it is due to the aroma of bananas.

Can't believe that on the last two abandoned meetings, I have had a runner each time. Seymour now transferred to saturday.

And the warm feeling of friendship.

I had what may be the best Pineapple I have ever eaten in Bangkok.

Lovely and cold from a street cart.

It was sitting on ice and they sell it to you cut in pieces in a plastic bag.

Also provide a small bag of sugar and chilli.

dip the pineapple in the sugar mixture.

Sounds strange but works really well.

Glad the new teeth are working well OD.

Crunch into a few of those fried crickets if you get the chance-bloody tasty with a beer.

Have heard plenty of comment on these Biff but have not seen any!

I had them offered to me at a roadside stall in Malaysia. I politely declined (although they did look crunchy) and stuck to the warm beer.

Now this is reducing the tenor of the thread but I am told you see them the next day in the loo Bbo!

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
