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

how is the diet going, red

i'm losing weight and i'm not even dieting or exercising

getting that tapeworm turned out to be a good move

thanks biffo

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.

Has that helped with attracting the ladies?

Wary, but still dating them.

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

I can imagine how much trouble he had.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
