Perhaps BBO can snap out of his delusions of grandeur.

Wow, sounds like Family Day was fun! 
I wouldn’t know since I didn’t see any of the happenings described in the above posts. Which is fantastic because it means that we were absolutely flat out for the entire time. We literally did not stop for a solid three-hour period. A couple of hours beforehand to set up and a couple of hours afterwards to clean/pack up. I didn’t get home until 4:30.

But totes worth it. More giant heads on the horizon! Speaking of, what happens to giant heads of players who leave us? I’m glad I asked! We raffle them. And look who got to come home with me!

No surprise since I reckon I bought 95% of the tickets. 😁

PS: to the ‘Landers who came by to say hello… I’m sorry if I appeared rude but as mentioned above we were under the pump the entire time and I simply couldn’t take a break. But thanks all the same for coming by. 

So you sleep in Fritsch's bed and take Jayden home...and I thought you were a wholesome type...😉

Clearly mistaken!🙃

If a Bunnings brunch is not good enough for you, then you are the problem!

Fritta wasn’t in his bed at the time and Jayden’s made of cardboard, so… reputation intact. 😇

oh, and i had this image of you sitting in the kitchen,  stirring purloined threads from fritta's bed cover in a bubbling cauldron, whilst chanting magical incantations, in a desperate attempt to breathe life into a cardboard jayden facsimile.......reputation be buggered!

Are cauldrons still a thing? Like, can you even buy them anywhere now? Do they still make them?

Snapped up a Kaboodle Kauldron at your Snag Rivals, Bunnings, just yesterday, WCW.

Though have been trying to follow graphic-rich, word-free instructions to attach legs ever since. Allen key, tossed angrily, defying recovery.

So we’ve met but didn’t realise it, DZ. I was the one who took your money!

Glad you enjoyed the snags, as well as the day on the whole. ❤️💙

Yes we did WCW although my daughter and grandaughter placed the order and paid, how terrible that Coles let the Demon Army down on such a critical day. We were coming back for seconds after the players left but the queue was out of control you ladies were flat chat.👍

You'll have to find that aisle yourself.

The 16 year old stoner will try to help, buy ultimately give up.

'What's a cauldron do? So, it's sort of like a bucket? Maybe try the cleaning aisle? Number? Um, down that way? It's hot in a cauldron? Um, maybe try  the outdoor sections where they have those outdoor heater thingos. Yeah, nah, sorry man, can't help'

Extra Large Cast Iron Cauldron only $195

Unfortunately this isn’t an isolated incident, DZ. Similar has happened before. But we always somehow manage to avert disaster. At one BBQ at Gosch’s two BBQs we’d ordered for delivery at 8am didn’t arrive until 10:15am. In the meantime though, a couple of members ducked out and brought a BBQ from home. We always find a way. ❤️💙

Sincere thanks to you and indeed everyone who enjoyed our wares. Happy to say we made a great profit and y’all look out for new flags n giant heads this season!

Also happy and proud to report our cake stall and raffles made $2300 which goes straight to BBB’s Chop The Mop cause. 💕

Outstanding effort yesterday as usual. Not many people put their hands up to contribute to community/social based organisations anymore unfortunately. We’re lucky that there are enough people like you and the rest of the Demon Army who are selfless and civic minded and give back. We’re very grateful. Thank you @WalkingCivilWar

Thanks so much, BDA. 💕 But at the risk of sounding cheesy af, we do what we do out of love for the Dees. On a personal level, I’m just rapt to have found a bunch of people who are as insanely devoted as I am, to the point of obsession. 😁

My youngest son is also grateful as he knows that the time and energy I put into the DA would otherwise be channeled his way which would suck because apparently I’m annoying. 🤣

Australia has the fifth highest rate of volunteerism in the world. Reliable stats comparing year-on-year increases and deceases in volunteerism are hard to come by, as scales of measurement and variables constantly change. But any increase/decrease is generally accepted as being small.
