Red and Bluebeard

Welcome back, DF. Maybe your wish will come true in a couple of months ...

Time? Why? Bananas for afternoon tea? By the way, Hird lost his appeal, and then I heard this afternoon that the judges ruled against him in court as well ...

Had a banana, OD? Or spent some time with the grand-daughter?

Trying or succeeding?

Any loss Redleg? Were the holiday scales inaccurate?

Depends on the sort of person you want to meet. It sounds like it could be a medieval Gatwick ... :)

I recall learning that Elizabeth I had a bath once a month "whether she needed it or not" ...

Which one gets the bull, jazza?

And coffee and doughnuts (and paleo dairy milk chocolate for Redleg )

That is paleo dairy milk chocolate, eh Redleg?

Wrong perspective jazza. 189 days withou, 1 with. That is a percentage of nearly 19,000. Sounds good.

Gotta start somewhere sometime jazza ...

I thought you were talking about Essendon for a minute .... Hang in there!

It has been said before that achievement is 90% attitude and 10% talent ... classic case right there. Has the physical attributes to be a top footballer, but not the attitude.

Anytime ... I presume, then, that Uncle Bitter is not The Man from UNCLE? And perhaps you have the world's biggest dining table?

I was thinking more the BBO Identity ...

Maybe we have the cause and effect all wrong. What if BBO is Australia's response to the terrorist threat? What if all the alpaca talk is just to distract us all from his James Bond lifestyle? Romsey would be a good place to hide lots of things, including ASIS operatives ...

Any more progress on the Paleo diet, Redleg? Haven't seen the team selected by such Demonland royalty ...

No one climbs a mountain without a stumble or two, jazza. Don't kick yourself too hard, or BBO might be tempted to join in ...

What happened in 2012 and 2013 DC? I have no memories of those years ...

Double century in sight, jazza. Don't throw it away like Steve Smith. May it rain for the whole week! As for the fishing, it sounds like you are getting quite a catch. Pity you have throw most of them back :-) Perhaps you could fish for marlin before long?

Just as long as you don't argue for the Invincible Whites ...

Dance away, jazza. Rain at this time of year is great for the veggies, and the roses, and the hydrangias (and the fuchsias )

Some thing are worth the pain, DC, and I would rank pavlova over-indulgence as one of them ... (shaded only by over-indulgence in trifle, and the right sort of plum pudding).

Hannibal's brother?
