Hope we don't lose again this weekend.

Don't worry, just buy a nice bunch of bananas for your physical and emotional well-being. 

However, you could further indulge.

Perhaps try watching some repeats of Bananas in Pyjamas. 

You could take the opportunity to improve your knowledge on the banana.  Its nouns, adjectives, synonyms, derived terms, foreign language meanings, pronunciation, racial significance, freudian relevance etc. There is also the banana's significance as a figure of speech, its allegorical meanings, not to forget its relevance as a metaphor or analogy.  Really a limitless subject. 

Just think Red of all that time you will have researching, talking about and writing about bananas. Engage your analytical mind.

You don't need to worry about footy or searching for salacious stories contained in case law and the ratio decidendi or obiter dicta of your extensive law library.  We have enough salacious [censored] bits from other posters on this thread. That just lowers the standard and of course the tone. Wrong side of the tracks and all that.

Funny you should mention bananas, as I had a banana smoothie today that was excellent. It was at the bakery cafe on Burke Road near Toorak Road in Auburn I think the suburb is.

The smoothie was ice cold which I love and contained honey, cocoa, chia, skim milk and magnificent banana.

Demonland and this thread have a great deal in common with the great Leonard Cohen who spent six years of his life before he became famous on the Greek Island of Hydra. This book explains what kept him alive during that time.

Greetings lawyers and other ne'er do wells.

Your good old Uncle is heading orf to Westralia tomorrow, followed by a trekking adventure to Darwin.

I shall be avoiding scat throwers in Freemantle and attempting to turn Demon frogs into road kill.

The maid shall remain at The Manor, so no doubt I will be inundated with beautiful women hoping to accompany me.

Be assured I shall put them through an arduous selection process.

One trusts you might run into Ethan somewhere in the glorified ore mine that is WA and impart some of your provincial wisdom upon him.Perth seems to have given him delusions of social adequacy.

Will one of your fine servants be chauffeuring you and the missus in the 4WD Rolls? If not, you may want to contact Demonland's very own Westralian frog. I hear he's a terrific driver and loves a jolly good flogging. Safe travels Uncle, make sure you turn your watch back 30 years

Uncle, sounds like you are traveling with your friend Alter Ego.  

Don't bother with the selection process, just take a sack of money, you will need it. Remember, they will not have seen a photo of you. 

In case all goes pear shaped, take a bunch of bananas for entertainment. May also come in handy if you get lost in the never never. 

Oh, one more thing, you better make sure they have motorized buggies for your "trek."

uncle, you will need to check with the the department of agriculture and food, western australia's (dafwa) quarantinewa service regarding your fungal infection. would hate to see you turned back at the border

I must say I was quite chuffed by all the above encouragement .It resulted in a very emotional discharge 

Trawled through a few pubs last night. Must say there was a surprising number of drunks and derros about the place. I would usually thrash such types but I considered that Ethan may have been one of them and demonstrated considerable restraint 

re your queries dc

No “Special” guests.

I had considered WA’s quarantine laws and thus wrapped my offending pinkies in glad wrap pre flight. Nevertheless I was approached by a sniffer dog at the airport. Oddly the poor beast had some form of convulsion and began foaming at the mouth. Fatigue I suppose

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
