Bitter but optimistic

Go with most of that Ern but the Rorschach test !! I've only ever seen the beast with two backs in that.

All is well at last,Flo g is back Uncle Bitter is back. …… and, what’s more, I have a divine mission. My informant (a certain MD from Pulling One’s Appendage Creek) has let it be known that one of our esteemed fellow posters, the inestimable Stuie is sad and upset. Apparently the poor fellow has been forced to read excerpts of his own posts – a cruel and inhumane punishment if ever there was one. Well I’ll not tolerate such callousness!! I’ll hunt down the perpetrator of this justice injustice and buy him a case of decent shiraz give him a jolly good flogging.

Flo g you're back!! I've missed you - just joshing.

You know this stuff RTG. Is there a subtext I'm missing?

OD. You are either - (1) an imposter, as dc suggests. (2) On drugs (3) Drinking free Pinot at your sister's winery. Which will [censored] me off grandly as, apparently, Australia Post failed to deliver my invite,

Your right.

Parish is our pick 3 - back it in . Weideman is our likely second pick.

Is that the same as Berlei?

More an unfortunate by product than a speciality dc.

Tasmanian seafood!! Unbeatable. Love the clam.

69 for me.

Your pretensions to joining the upper class will have you watching for inspiration Biffen - don't deny it.

Well Red there is something far more important than the draft tonight!! "Mary, the making of a Princess" at 8.30. The Lads and myself are very excited. I believe Earl Hood is making a cameo performance.

Bwaha bwaha haha . Thanks Stu, made my day - for all sorts of reasons.

Stuie please stick to talking about football - where, sometimes at least, you makes sense.

Just heard on the radio that the crowd forced to evacuate the football stadium in Paris did so singing the national anthem. What a wonderful example of humanity's ability to rise above the malevolent evil and violence of a bunch of thugs and cowards.

Find a fanatic or two, give them some weak minded followers and add a dose of ideology .....

Dr. I have made several attempts at rehabilitation, however, circumstances seem to continually conspire against me! And .. if not circumstances, I am weighed down by those with whom I associate.

Yes, well ... I suppose that is a less strenuous method of carrying out your ... err .... activities.

Was Dland just down for a while, or was I spinning in and out of reality?

You should have continued dc, and meandered in a roughly NW direction, until you reached sunny shores of Romsey. The inadequacies of Borewood would have been immediately apparent.

A ridiculous article that lacks any credibility whatsoever. I glanced at it expecting to see Romsey firmly entrenched at number1 but to my and the lads chagrin, Romsey was not mentioned. The lads were so outraged they damaged their computer and have cancelled their subscription to that vile newspaper.

As usual, it seems, I have to be the whipping boy. Recently Biffen, a beastly fellow at best, described certain aspects of my behaviour as "putrid" - can you believe that? And now Dr, Hopping Dick uses some kraut swear word to offend my good self.

Nice whack. Well it seems as though you had quite a spiffing adventure Earl. However, it seems to me you have been too generous with your staff. I mean .. what is the good of having servants if they are not servile? I suggest a few thrashings to encourage proper lickspittling Now as to these sarcocophagi you have "imported" - I presume you will not be sharing the details with your "free trade" friends. And where will you display them? Will your good lady's herbarium have to make way? I suppose I could provide some short term storage at the Manor but antiquities don't fit with my more post - apocalyptic layout. But each to his own in such matters of course.

or fracture her!!
