Interesting side light

Today I commenced the search for a replacement car ( Finance planner says it is time to replace the Henry )

So I looked up the closest Holden dealer on the AHG website ( a new one in South Melbourne )

All very swish and new, a nice young guy descended on me, I am confident he thought he was selling to his grand father.

Especially after he started selling me on the merits of the "Info Centre" in the dash, my case was probably not helped when I said

"Mate I just need a radio and hands free for my phone" He then asked what sort of phone do you have?

When I answered a Blackberry his demeanour dropped alarmingly.

However it picked up again when he realised I knew more about the mechanicals than he did.

An interesting hour I am sure for both of us.

If a Holden makes the short list I will go back.

The reason for this short story is that if AHG was not the sponsor of the MFC I would not have gone to this dealer.

Now on to the Ford and Toyota dealers ( AHG of course )

You lost me at Blackberry sorry OD.

Although the wifes work phone is a RIM Blackberry and she love it more then me LOL

Would not bother with a Ford or Toyota. Ford cars a awful and there something wrong with Toyota Dealership or so I got the feeling when my work last purchased one.

Do they have a Madza or Honda Dealerships?

2 Both make good cars

3 There are no Mazda or Honda's that turn my top soil.

I think your only saving grace TBF is the country is her choice.

So you will not accused of taking her to a country of carnivores.

AS a frog yourself I have not doubt you will be able to suggests lots of Cheese, pastries, Breads and Red wine to keep her happy.

There will also be bananas prepared in every manner imaginable.

PS do you need a bag carrier?

After following the Dees you would think I would be used to it!

Does anyone know if I can get Bananas in Mauritius / Madagascar?

I know the threading is turning into Wong's Chinese Take Away but someone must still like Bananas here!

There was a particularly scathing interview on the internet that was so vitriolic it is worth uploading for those that know how.

Something about needing counselling etc.

I know Wongs has been around about 40 years

They are bound to have a bad day occasionally.

Lets hope not on the 27th.

Is Wongs one of BBO's restaurants?

IMO can't go past a Diesel Toyota. Especially a Hilux, landcruiser or Prado - they are workhorses!

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los
