Bitter but optimistic

I trust you've googled up some suggestions on what's involved in this unfamiliar activity WCW ?

The drink suggestions aren't improving - in fact they're getting worse. Whiskey and milk ! FMD !!!!

This is one game in which I have no hesitation admitting that viewing from the comfort of The Manor is far preferable to live attendance. However, I must also pass on my admiration to those hardy Demonlanders who are making the trek. I'm feeling very upbeat about this game and foresee a comfortable win. The ****ty weather won't help their key forwards and May, Petty , Lever etc will finish the job. I'm predicting a tense first half and then the Dees to runaway by 4 or 5 goals. The Manorial staff will be busy refilling my shiraz.

[censored] me ! He has had way beyond his share of ****ty luck. Hopefully the tide will turn for him in his post footy life

Tassie Johnson ... hence the etc .... the list was very long !

Just wanted to get your vomit emoji count up Delightful

An excellent plan Stiffy.

Philistines , Mongols, barbarians at the front door ..... what is this thread coming to? I have tried endlessly to add some refinement to this thread but , apparently, I have failed miserably. I'll say it again. The only libation for a refined gentleman is .... of course Shiraz. Follow Uncle Bitter's advice - you won't go wrong!

Massey, Miller, Roet , Williams etc... Some great players way back then

"Primordial oozes" !!!!! What an outrageous way to describe the scholarly discourse that this thread is renowned for. I'm sure @Redleg will impose a stern penalty on you Goffy

Of all the contentious decisions of late, this maybe the silliest yet!!!

Tigs home now !!!!

Geez, the Saints getting an indecent run from the umps ! FMD

No mate. That seems far too logical or sensible to account for the rubbish umpiring I see every week.

I've only watched since half time Dub but they are poor beyond belief. On what I've seen, the scoreboard is actually flattering them.

This idiocy/inconsistency goes on in every game, every week. Nothing changes

LOL Flagmantle!

Geez, Freo are barely getting a touch That draft pick is starting to look very good again.

Let's just say we have an eclectic mix here.

Tiggers and Giants winning would be a very satisfactory result.

Thanks @Rod Grinter Riot Squad and all the rest of you for your answers and advice/info. I now have a number of ideas to research and consider. One more question. What is the best/ safest/ cleanest caravan park in town. I have a very mature 14 year old young lady making her first road trip with me so facilities and ambience are an important consideration.

Yes.... but I'm towing a camper van that is suitable only for moderate off road.

The suggestion certainly has merit deever, however, I fear I would never be seen again.

I should have added that I'm driving. I intend to take a fairly direct route there but I'm not sure what I'll do for the return. Maybe Uluru , maybe go north for a while and come back through NSW. Suggestions welcome.

First time for me also old. I travelled all around Oz but never to Alice.
