  1. You prefer discussions about North and East Burwood?
  2. Same old song?
  3. The Google map that pops up from Wikipedia suggests something a lot smaller --- basically Warrigal Road to the west, Riversdale Road to the north, Stephensons Road to the east and Highbury Road (sort of) to the south. However, given the rather weird and wobbly lines, especially the southern one, I could believe that the surveyor responsible found these boundaries via a pub crawl ... More bizarrely, the same source defines Burwood East in a similarly nonlinear fashion, with the result that the Burvale appears to be not in Burwood East, but in Vermont South. Add that to the list of stuff you know but wish you had never found out ... :)
  4. Jeff Kennett was the Member for Burwood, wasn't he? Kind of says it all ... :)

  13. All too true, DC. I am not sure your last statement is true, but I will try to work it out ...
  14. I don't suppose you saw any Demon Frogs while you were there?
  15. So it looks like the fat lady known as WADA won't be singing for a couple of years yet ...
  16. So .. what is your point, DC? I think I am missing something here ...
  17. I want to be able to tell my grandchildren that I got to see Nathan Jones get a gig in the main game on Grand Final Day ...
  18. Presumably you weren't able to rent his for your stay? And how was the room at Buck House?
  19. Barbarism starts at home, eh?
  20. So you were the bloke in that episode of Top Gear who drove a Bentley into the middle of nowhere to round up cattle? That would explain a few things ...
  21. Dangerous practice that -- didn't anyone ever tell them not to roll and smoke at the same time?
  22. Probably leading a secret terrorist raid on an asparagus farm.
  23. So you are really a cat in a frog suit?
  24. Don't you know it's going to be alright
