Impressed with the veggie patch

Yes, it looks very healthy.  He's even got some growing in the gutter!

Got the follow up banner 

 

Mine are still up, trying to work out the appropriate time to take them down. I guess when the neighbours tell me enough is enough.

Neighbours? Bah! Like I said, S. Alighieri, 57 days. At least...

And your follow-up banner qualifies you for an extension anyway!

He ran out of space.

Not sure if I’ve done this correctly. If I have, enjoy my handiwork. If I haven’t, you’ll just have to die wondering. 😆

 

Only available space left is on the roof! Next year maybe you'll get a flag or banner up there

Just put the premiership bumper sticker on the back of my car. Positioned it top left so there's plenty of room for more

...And make sure your second car has good space.

As many of you fellow Victorians would attest to, over the past week we have endured some of the strongest winds I've ever seen in my life other than sitting through a category 3 cyclone 20 years ago in Cairns. 

Houses have wilted, multiple massive shipping containers have collapsed on each other , 100+ yr old trees destroyed, towns without power for days. 

My Dees scarves, tied only by the tassels at each end to my flimsy tree in the front yard have not moved an inch

Yep, I've had to rescue two flags this week and do some running repairs on the fixing systems of 2 others. Still get the occasional "toot" as someone drives by.

That’s lucky. I have structural damage to my roof that will cost me a bundle.

Driving through Moyston

saw this.  Made me smile

[Timothy Reddan-A'Blew 5,270]

'Tis a significant week ahead, folks; Tuesday will be 57 days from #13@25/9. Time to furl all those flags?

Yeah.

Nah.

Western.

We like 'Western' now...

Walking back to my place from the shops on Saturday when one of my neighbours collared me and said,  its time, so I said for what, thinking she might have wanted to have a coffee with me. Well she said when am I thinking of taking down my banners? Well to tell the truth I hadn't considered it, so I said, off the top of my head, maybe Christmas when I put up my decorations.

But now that it seems to upset this busy body I think I'll leave it for another year and just replace them with next years ones.

This is a car I saw when I was having a walk on Sunday, that's dedication.

what type of file is it e.g. .jpg ,tff ,png etc?

i should have said simple copy/paste using right mouse click rather than cut/paste, and don't use embed.

It shows up on my post, all three times, so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. 🤨

Thankfully just a Merc. Makes me wonder whether a Jaguar in blue with red touches added would be showing loyalty to the club beyond what good taste should allow.

Now I know how to do it this is one I posted on another thread but it didn't show up either, a jumper signed Jack Viney and Brian Wilson who was there on the night. A premiership player and a Brownlow medalist.
