I recall learning that Elizabeth I had a bath once a month "whether she needed it or not" ...

Collingwood supporters would see no problem with that R and B.

    nothing unusual in that

    there is only one bath (shared) in romsey and it's more than a month when your turn comes around

    mind you, queens in romsey get preferential treatment

    imagine that room, red, when the fridge had been on the blink for a few days

    I suppose it would be a good place to meet people.

    Depends on the sort of person you want to meet. It sounds like it could be a medieval Gatwick ... :) :)

    In the 18th century they washed clothes and linen with animal urine.

    Something that still happens today in Romsey.

    also jazza, feudal japan was very short on fertilisers and soil was poor in nutrients

    all human waste was collected daily and spread over the fields

    no doggy bags then and walking the fields was a hazardous task

    early europeans (who smelt pretty bad themselves) described the awful stench of the countryside

    While not sticking strictly to a Paleo diet I am eating less and drinking more water.

    I have some scales on holiday but they are not very accurate. Depends if you lean what it shows.

    Get home on Saturday and back onto regular scales and would expect a small loss.

    Might try and go a bit more caveman when I return. That doesn't mean belting the wife over the head with a club either, especially as I would be scared she would belt me back harder.

    "drinking more water" There 's your problem Red!

    Please note! We of Romsey's polite society will not be drawn into any puerile discussion of toilet or personal hygiene habits.

    Although, for those who have a genuine interest, I will note that the chronic fungal issue appears to be under control.

    Exactly the same, so not too bad. Problem is, WJ is dragging me off to Chinese Restauarants and trying to sabotage me.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
