Been tippling a bit too much of the fermented maple, Mable?

Back in the days of the 20 ball over?

That's now an archery range. The ground I used to play on in Ashburton (actually Jordanville Tech) was turned into a housing estate. Those people don't realise what a Field of Dreams they parked their fat arses on.

Sounds like a pincer movement is being set up DC! Don't let the grandmother wave her wand / broomstick / warty nose or whatever and cast a spell over the grandson so that the mother is more favoured than the father. Geez, that sounds like a line out of the Kung Fu series with Grasshopper as the young David Carradine.

Sorry your lordship. The word "Box" was replaced by "Bok" in the suburb name after a plebiscite held in the municipality in the last decade of the previous century. Apparently it reflected the actual pronunciation and indeed favourite vegetable of the population of the day rather than its old wasp-ish heritage. And the band played some very decent classics from the Angels, Oils, OZ Crawl, Sunny Boys etc.

Afraid that's not possible Moonie. A bridge more blown up than burnt!

Just doing some catching up in a more friendly thread after today's debacle. Beg to differ on the northern aspect. Rather than the Doncaster, the northern rampart which helps keep out us drunken hoons from Borewood is fronted by The Blackburn, my new local. After moving from the vicinity of the Knox Tavern beyond the Far East of Borewood, I can say I am happy having moved to the new country of Bok Hill. I recently (4 mths ago?) ventured back to the Burvale for a night with some old friends to watch a pretty good cover band. The only trouble I had was with the hotel staff who insisted on speaking Ingrish and offering to take credit cards, not just 'cash only'.

Didn't know what you meant till I googled it. Then I found a picture of a bloke who looks a lot like Saty. Perhaps he was standing on a scooter?

I always thought dyslexia was a cruel term for the sufferer to have to read. It would come out as lexdyslia.

And charges you for personal attention - in 6 minute time slots!

And I bet the Pygmy marmoset is thanking the gods it was already dead.

Been offline for a few days and just managed to catch up. Geez you guys / gals / trannies can get way off track. Don't you peeps get it? What really matters is the Dees first and foremost, then secondary interests such as wine, meat, and meat marinated in wine, then any thing else as minor space fillers. Now, getting even further off track, how does a bare arse on a marmoset skin Benz seat make it into the hallowed halls of this thread? Where are the mods of taste and decorum? Why is the Earl sitting on the sidelines instead of writing a letter to HRH Lizzie and requesting a royal inquiry?

"Say ccchhello to my liddle frend"

Now that's a new one - the Wolverine Frog. What does it turn into on a full moon night?

Jazza, I think it's an alternative to waxing. For hirsute people. But I've never seen a hairy frog.

Any chance of lifting the standards of this thread a little? What's the latest on banana prices, wasps in the vineyards, almond milk smoothies, single malts, heathcote shiraz etc? Anything but discussion about our round 2 debacle.

Blddy Euro wasps. I might have to switch over to boutique beers. The Byron Brewery does a nice tasting platter of 6 for $18. Hope the German wasps among them don't start going after hops as well.

ASADA - weren't they the mob in The Life of Brian who trudged all through the house where the members of the Peoples Front of Judea were hiding behind curtains and under tables, and didn't find anybody?

I hope it's a 'good urn' OD.

Better still, just take the steering wheel and 4 tyres with you. Leave the car up on blocks. And run your keys around all sides of the car. Then it will look no different to any other local car.

Hey Jazza, best wishes on your journey. It's not easy in the darker times and you've been through a lot. But you are dealing with what life has dealt and have made some big and positive changes. Being on here is good therapy. Just know that you have some fellow travellers here interested in your continued progress. Let's face it, we need all the Demons supporters we can get to be up and about when its our turn to be on the rise again.

You're as straight as my grandpa's arm 6pm every Thursday at the front bar of the Orrong Hotel!

Not sure if joking, but hey Cranky, good Nic you have there. Welcome to the thread. Spend a bit of time here and you might find you mellow out a bit. Good for the soul. Could even turn you into a Rantless Francis.

Thanks for the tip Red. Had a Youtube of her. Have to agree - a stunning voice and under-the-radar stellar career.
