Yes the strength is rising. It seems that every subject is treated with silence by those in power. It appears we are as usual just excepting all the [censored] the media and others dish out.

“Accepting” I think you meant.

Can we try a Although come to sub thread of Rhyming slang here?

Cockney Slang like Bristol cities can also be included.

But I'm very interested in Australian ones.

JimmyGrant ( immigrant) apparently gets the nod for one of the first ones recorded.

Australian idioms and sayings like as Happy as Larry will be permitted if they are explained.

Interesting the origins of who Larry was are somewhat obscure. Some believe he was a boxer.

Although if I met someone who spoke not stop RS, I'd be inclined to kill them.

 

Melbourne supporter Titus O’Reilly covered the saying with Mick Malloy on their excellent podcast Sports Bizarre a while ago. It refers to an early Australian pugilist Larry Foley (1847 - 1917) who never lost a fight. He retired happy at 32 after collecting a purse of £1,000 (probably close to $1m today) for his final fight.

I was wondering.  And I was always very good at mathematics. Algorithms have a lot to answer for.   Still.  A healthy mind in a not so healthy body. And the ads do bring a smile to my face.  I will just put up with it.

the latest is very quick, moves st quite a pace, 

Dear, sweet 640… you do know there’s places on the internet other than Demonland that are teeming with Bristols, right? These sites are also free, and you don’t have to trawl through the MFCSS in order to see said Bristols… and they’ll bring more than a smile to your face 😜

What ever floats your boat, but I like reading demonland and watching pretty things. But fishing on the internet is not my thing.

question.  Does it matter where you get your appetite, if you only ever eat at home.

Doesn’t matter in the slightest. Unless of course your appetite is being whetted at an inappropriate place, for example, your mother-in-law’s house. 🤭

Yeah, it’s not a footy act.

Unless of course your feet leave the ground and you wilfully slam your shoulder into your unsuspecting wife’s head, knocking her out cold and consequently ending her career. Then it IS a footy act.

'Lefty' Orchard was not me, Neil.

However, whatever it is that you have noticed about me is evidently possible in a right-hander.

Greetings erstwhile bs wordsmiths. It’s been wayyy too long since I dipped my big toe into the murky swamp of this thread. What’s become of all my favourite warriors? Bitters, Old Dee, Frog, Hemingway. Have you drowned in a puddle of single malt /shiraz/ debauchery (BBO)? Have you lost your way and actually now discuss football? Surely at least one of you will be talking about the boys training up a storm? Helloooo?

BTW, the boys are training up a storm, which should hit Melbourne ( the city ) about 9.00 pm tonight.

good luck finding a builder, red, let alone building supplies.

Might ring Michael Warner for a few names, as being an expert in tearing things down, he should know a few people who can rebuild.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int

    POSTGAME: Rd 24 vs Collingwood

    The Dees played insipid, error riddled & uninspiring footy all night and in a lightning delayed match they eventually succumbed to Collingwood by 46 points at the MCG in the final game of the year. Thank God this season is finally over. Bring on 2025.

    LAST DANCE by The Oracle

    Forget the wishful thinking from Magpie fans who think their team can perform yet another miracle and somehow snatch a place in the 2024 finals series when their team takes on the Demons at the MCG on Friday night. It ain’t gunna happen. They can whistle Dixie through their non-existent front teeth but the fact of the matter is that both teams have run their race. The game is a dead rubber — for each of them, this will be the last dance of the season.  And given the history between the two

    RED FACED by Whispering Jack

    The wind and the hot unseasonable temperatures together with lights turned on mid game at People First Stadium conspired to leave many Suns players and supporters red faced and gasping for air as the Demons proved a number of points on their way to a nine goal triumph on Saturday afternoon in the Carrara sunshine. Melbourne is the only non-Queensland team to taste victory at this venue in 2024. This surely leaves a number of journalists and media mavens red faced after they rushed to pass
