too bad, biffo. up river, eh? no doubt retracing the steps of the great capt willard

hey biffo, had any luck in pham ngu lao finding any 457 candidates to sponsor for your "businesses"? love you long time.

what an evil thought, ernest. i would have thought death may have calmed your impetuosity, but apparently not

a jolly good flogging should suffice this time, dieter

a thread prerequisite, ethan

A pity, earl. I'd really hoped you might have been there to pump gillon for some juicy news as there would be no chance you'd bump into him at a canberra gallery or exhibition (unless it was one on the national game of course). julie would have been disappointed you couldn't stand in for her. look forward to your trip report.

Banana Fact #231 Did you know japanese people literally wear bananas as clothing? Anyone for a banana kimono?

they never really were r&b......it was always "abroad"

you should see the arguments on history fora regarding ethnic connections/ownership to alexander the great. at least 6 balkanic countries claim a slice of the pie. the arguments make demonland look like a haven of calm and reason. lol

seems they do, doc. see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Croats

you're good dieter

originally celtic, then romanised, then germanised..........hmmmm....reminds me of another european country

I wonder what the little man with the funny toothbrush would think of his birth country now

well doc i never claimed he was croation. i'd class him as ethnically austrian with a technical claim to croatia and a 50% genetic claim. With croatia currently having a good dose of nationalism i'm sure they'd readily claim him, but that's a different story

at the time,bub i believe it could accurately be described as either the kingdom of croatia or the austrian empire so either croatian or austrian would be correct point being it was still croatia at the time, not a country per se but a kingdom

heard our own earl hood was spotted at portsea for the big polo gig, gallantly standing in for julie bishop who mysteriously couldn't make it. i always wondered whether earl might be a closet hooray henry. i do hope he had a good chat to gillon while he was there and can fill us in on the latest afl shenanigans

half croation, half austrian born in croatia......take your pick

michael warner seems to be taking over slobbo's chief cheer-leader and mud-slinger role. i remember there was scuttlebutt that previously the afl had threatened him with loss of afl media accreditation. is slobbo on holidays?

i wouldn't put it past dank to have injected them with more than tb4. i reckon he was probably out of control and wanted results no matter what. only dank really knows what he injected and he's never going to tell the true story

i thick biffo needs to return immediately

and on top of that chris there was the switkowski report and the guilty finding of worksafe victoria

a good opportunity for him to swot up on his van demon accent and colloquialisms before he invades the apple isle with his appalling solecism

nor has he spoken to him he said on 3aw. he claims to be getting progress reports via his daughter in melbourne. not his son or daughter-in-law. make of that what you will.

yeah, i saw that report. very impressed with his resourcefulness. must be a bushy thing. but seriously, have they talked to you about moving you to the new satellite? it did sound like a big improvement for satellite nbn, but maybe it is reserved for other areas or some such other bureaucracy?

how's your nbn thingy with that new satellite, doc? SkyMuster II or something see fttn is changing to fttc (c=curb i.e. the existing concrete thingy in your nature strip) for us city slickers (some time this century)
