Red and Bluebeard 2,101 Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 I was going to say something about that... along the lines of having ones cake and eating it too Yeah, no point in saving banana cake -- carpe bananum and all that ... Quote
Red and Bluebeard 2,101 Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Today I went to the football I have no idea why I need help Ditto. I did think in the last quarter that OD and BB made much better choices for the weekend ... Quote
Red and Bluebeard 2,101 Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 (edited) Well my big weekend in Bendigo turned to nothing. Five of us getting together. Friday one was down with flu, one broke his arm Thursday night, third one had to visit wife in hospital after fall from a golf cart. Yes you are reading correctly she fell out of golf cart. So the two of us left standing called the weekend early Saturday morning. After some discussion we are all on for next weekend. There seems to be a bit of sadness around tonight did we lose on Saturday or something. Sorry to hear it, OD, but you know the saying -- there is always next week!

Red and Bluebeard 2,101 Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 It wouldn't surprise me if the new chairman posted on Demonland. I believe that it should be a prerequisite for any candidate to post here a minimum of 3 months before being considered for office. That and a ravenous desire to devour bananas. If by "here" you mean on this thread, then no problem. On some of the others, I think three months would be akin to a sentence for daylight robbery ... Quote
old dee 24,083 Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Sorry to hear it, OD, but you know the saying -- there is always next week! The problem is R and B none of us are getting any younger.We starting talking about this two years ago there were six then! It is on next weekend come hell or high water. Quote
old dee 24,083 Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Ditto. I did think in the last quarter that OD and BB made much better choices for the weekend ...I hope this not a omen but I will be in Bendigo next weekend! Quote
Red and Bluebeard 2,101 Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 I hope this not a omen but I will be in Bendigo next weekend! Sounds like it will be more enjoyable, even if we win by 100+. Any victory for us this season will be sweet, but soon forgotten; a weekend catching up with old mates will surely be something that lives in the memory for ever. Hence don't think of it as an omen, but the right decision. Quote

old dee 24,083 Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 I had a serious car crash this morning. 100% my fault, inattention. One metre further into the intersection and I think I would have been watching the Dees from another dimension. Everyone walked away ok. Puts the MFC in a different perspective. Never forget to tell your loved ones you do! 1 Quote

Glad to hear you are well.I think we discussed insurance on this forum once so i take it you have some. Daisycutter-a French philosopher once said"I would rather die young than compromise by eating Margarine". Hope you are running on all chambers/valves soon. Quote

I'm sure i'll go in a 4 cylinder and come out a V8 I wonder if this might be a strategy worth pursuing for the current list? Would asada approve? Just a thought Quote

Never forget to tell your loved ones you do! Glad to hear you're OK OD. However, if you were in another dimension upward there would be better things to do than watch the dees. If you were in another dimension downward, watching the dees would be the equivalent of eternal damnation. Quote
