Love the McDonalds fudge sundae.  A shocking admission, I know.  Also get a flat white at the same time, which is perhaps passable.  The hamburgers are of course, homogenised and lacking the taste of those sizzling and charring at the local shop.

Always wary of Maccas after a guy that used to own/run a nightshift business for their burger buns and frappa mix told me they used some sort of silica type powder as part of the mix (approx 10% in the buns or thereabouts if i recall correctly) and to never eat / drink those two products.

    Golly i'm old enough to recall seeing these guys.

    Had two hits and i recall they sounded a bit ho hum / flat.

    Might have played the Manhattan or the Burvale.  Either way i remember sticky carpets and i never wanted to go back haha.

    The glug was the best.  Didn't mind the orange one either was that the Razz.  If you didn't get gold writing (rarely) i seem to recall it was always red otherwise.  Maybe black.

    And deaver what Sacrilege!  Wait till it melted then down the hatch!  Wasted on those Windsor fellas.

    Their still going especially in Nsw.

    They had " Show me some discipline."

    "Alone with you tonight."

    " Happy man."

    Some great riffs amongst those three.

    I’m pretty sure it was called a pine-lime Splice, as opposed to slice. They came in raspberry as well. They were great in that they were a hybrid of ice-cream and icy pole. 

    Pine Lime Splice - one of my fav’s. 
     

    No problem with prices of banana’s at the moment. Hope you’re all well here. 
     

    Club and a couple of individuals are under fire at the moment, club must hold strong and reload for 2024. 
     

    Id suggest a meeting of players and a commitment amongst themselves - Would be ideal for everyone to be on the same page. Clock is always ticking while the window is open. 
     

    The raspberry splice isn’t bad either. Continue pls.

    Sorry it was the Sennitts' Comet. It was a chocolate and mint combo, delicious.

    That reads a bit like the lyrics of the odd David Bowie top 40 hit.

    I believe he would often write parallel interchanging lyrics, which may have rhymed in places, but the topics from either verse had anything to do with the other.

    Lets hope all the boys are on the same page by the time we get to 24.

    H_T, any relation to yeh olde d'lander, High Tower?

    In today's world I I feel nothing but sadness. However a first world problem has today come to my notice and I cannot leave it hidden. 

    Where have the Bananas gone? I visited 4 stores in my part of Melbourne two stores had none, one store had a dozen very green ones and Aldi had 3 yes 3 only which I bought. I asked where are the bananas? Three shrugged their shoulders and one said we have not had delivers for 4 days. This is all too much how do I go on past Thursday?

    I wonder what the median age of posters is on Dl?

    Edit:  'Boomer' age range is 59 to 77 so they represent approx 35% of DL per that poll.

    After 'straight-sets-squared', all the age bracket labels need to be shifted up one line.

    Yes, but always found it a little petite.

    Like eating a party pie, instead of a real one.

    Not really, it's just a lot more pastry and very little meat, or whatever is inside.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • 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.
