I have an old corolla which will make it ok...looking for someone to come with me to share petrol and accommodation. Desperately poor so can only do this with help.

The plan is to drive to Holbrook ...... leave about lunchtime Friday and stay overnight on Friday. Then 3 hours to Canberra Sat morning. Drive back to Holbrook accommodation Sat night.......back to Melb Sunday morning arrive sun arvo.
Petrol about $150 total and accommodation around $90-100 for a two single beds times two nights. So the travel/accom could be done for About $175 each.
Prefer stunningly attractive young blond female companion, however will accept old ugly bastard like myself....or any other Demon mad human being. I've got an old corolla but it'll make it. Would be happy to go in your late model Ferrari or similar.

Any other hair brained scheme to get there considered.

 

Send pm to Bitter But Optimistic. He can be described as looking like both of the travelling companions you mentioned and is going to Camberra.

I believe Bitter But Optimistic is driving up from Romsey, you could try him. That said, you might feel more comfortable travelling up with Ivan Milat.

I think Ivan might be otherwise committed. It'll have to be BBO ... scary.

Pretty sure Ivan is a GWS fan anyway. Fat Phil recruited him.

good idea. you could even try your luck with his squeeze when he inevitably passes out

assumes old corolla could make it to romsey, but leaving it there overnight would be risky

Ok thanks for that ...sent him a message. Does BBO's really look like that? Poor thing. I might be able to help with some diet and a quiet word about haircare.

This doesn't sound suss at all :P

 

how much would I have to pay if we pushed the beds together?

(sorry couldn't resist!)

Not to mention, offended.

classic. nice to have a laugh this morning. has anyone actually seen BBO? i have always been intrigued by his photo and posts. almost worth taking the risk and giving him a lift to find out after making sure he is in the backseat with seat belt firmly on to ensure he or she cannot get aroused on the journey.

No offence intended but your username rings alarm bells for me old mate. ;)

Therein lies the problem, H. It sounds good in theory, but BBO gets to a whole new level of "aroused" when you tie him up, buckle him up, strap him in or strap one on...

Gee I can see the headlines already."Crazed gunman kills GWS...innocent road trip goes awry."

Story Ron Barassi as told to Barrie Bretland and translated into English by Haroun Al Rasheed.

He's changed quite a bit since that avatar pic Special Robert. His tounge piercing has a chain hanging from it linked to a bullring nose ring and he has those weird coral growth horn implants under his thinning forehead (committed Demon). Oh, and he always carries at least 2 full bottles of Heathcote shiraz at any one time plus will undoubtedly correct the spelling in the pm you sent him.

Good luck mate!


Well well. Once again I'm happy to allow Dland's comic genii to make their particularly unfunny remarks at my expense.

Unfortunately I am unable to help "special" out (and it's nothing to do with my rule about poor people and the Merc). Rather I already have two freeloading friends of the squeeze joining me for the roadtrip.

Bad luck for them. All the excitement is activating my old flatulence issue and that persistent fungal problem appears to have reinvented itself.

Could potentially have a spare seat in Piper Comanche, passenger gone down with man flu and if he doesnt get up I will have to introduce someone from the bench to fill the vacancy. Looking like he could be out for 426.

The old 426 time frame.

Could be the Romsey version of Wolf Creek then Uncle Bitter...

that's only 4 pax you miserable sod.........small benz?

but that's not counting the eskies i s'pose

Sorry to detour from the themes of general deviancy, but how good is it to be contemplating crazy road trips to watch Melbourne again? I google mapped how long it would take to drive from my place to the arena before deciding that 14.5 hours driving in a day for a football game would not be on the cards. Still, I'm enjoying the optimism. I'll be disappointed if the crowd volume doesn't favour Melbourne on Saturday.

Correct plus certain other "gear" to ensure exciting night after activities in Cantberra.

BTW Biffen has organised accommodation for me in a place called Fyshwick . He assures me it is a very salubrious area.

It'll certainly be a step or two up on what you're accustomed to BBO.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
