Isn't it in Simpson St, near Albert St?     I haven't noticed it in Lansdowne St.

Hi JJC. Yup, you're right. I just checked a map. It's on one of my cycle routes and it's always there when I go past between March & September.

I'm not normally a baseball cap wearer but how validated do I feel atm, quietly proudly sporting this everywhere (in unlockeddownland - sorry...). And I get to do it for two weeks.

At least.

As I mentioned elsewhere last week, my demons scarf was stolen last Wednesday from my Geelong front garden, in broad daylight.

Infuriated I wrote a stongly worded letter to the Editor of The Geelong Advertiser. Nothing in the paper the next day, but to their credit , they published on Friday 10th September, before the game.

I have re-created the letter as published, but the Headline was the sub-eds words not mine:

                                        "GIVE SCARF BACK OR THE CATS ARE GONNA GET IT

                 A local just stole my Melbourne Football Club scarf placed on a tree in my front garden.

                  As a result, the 'karma' bus is coming for the probable Cats supporter and their team.

                                              Would the theif please return it as it belongs to my son"

 

The last sentence isn't true but I thought i'd try and tug the heart strings. Still no scarfback but I have since put 3 others up.

I like to think I may have helped in some way to get the PF result.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
