Facebook coment saying that the Caravan Club played its last gig last night with Mick Thomas? Is that goodbye?

Fair cop Macca!

Yes great film, watched it last month on 70mm at The Sun in Yarraville. Superb vision apparently on 70 mm, depth of vision you don't get with digital, so they said. Now in the final scenes I interpreted the German bomber attacking the English minesweeper off Dunkirk with the central characters escaping on board being depicted a number of times from the spitfire pilot perspective, from the characters on board the sweeper and from the Dunkirk rescuer's small motor boat. The same event depicted 4 times. Initially I was thinking, for heaven's sake what does it take to kill this German bomber? Then I realised what we were seeing. Yet when I have mentioned this to 3 people who watched the film they didn't see it that way. Any thoughts? One other thing, I used to have a pilots license and I doubt you could fly a spitfire without fuel for the distance they managed in the film, take out a Jerry bomber and still emergency land on the beach intact.

Sheer looxury I say!

No Hemingway yet again! I walked passed a place in Osaka where he obviously frequented in the past, drinking Sake, whiskey shots, who knows what else.

Loyalty issues as well I have heard!

I am in Osaka and who do I run into?

Yes too many concussions, one more hit outside a nightclub and he is cactus. Pass it on.

I am guzzling sake at the moment! The locals aren't impressed. Not bad you should try it Uncle. It lies somewhere between chateau cardboard and top shelf.

I am booked on the Kanazawa to Kyoto express train tomorrow morning but just found out it is the Thunderbird Express leaving at 9.05 a.m. I wonder if they will let me on board? I didn't pack a disguise for this trip either!

Ernest I think you need a few more daiquiris!

Can't remember seeing much of Hardeman but know he was good but I think Ingerson should be considered as well at half back. Short time with us but I don't remember him being beaten by any forward, the consummate spoiler.

So where does the Diet of Worms come into this discussion? I still think Martin Luther was railroaded in the final edict, myself. Discuss.

Socceroos v Japan we are playing well but just went one down. Wasn't that off side? I always struggle with that rule, I thought you were not allowed to run forward of everyone else like that, to receive a pass?

Reports are the the Dorks are chasing him, replacement for Gibson just as they covered Lewis and S Mitchell with Mitchell and Jaegar. How the hell do you kill this club in the modern era where they just keep cherry picking top talent based on their recent, past success to fill holes?

Skeeter Coghlan?

J Kelly?

Close Moons, in fact I had been in Sydney until yesterday, quite sunny and mild up there compared to this cold and windy place! So I missed the Wuthering Heights mass [censored] event in the Edinburough Gardens. I wonder how many Fitzroy people were involved, I suspect there were numerous people from Burwood and Romsey who may or may not be pagan. And let me state clearly I have never ordered a caramel macha latte for heaven's sake! Keep coffee simple, I say, small cappuccino, no chocolate on top will do. While in Sydney I have been test driving some high performance cars, much more fun to drive than the Bentley I must say. A bright crome yellow corvette will be coming to Fitzroy sometime soon, so keep an eye out as I will be touring through the outer suburbs and regional towns over the next few months to lift the spirits of those less fortunate than myself. It is the least I can do to give back to my community!

A report of a breakout of Panama Disease on several banana plantations outside Cairns. Brace yourselves!

Uncle I take note of your comments. I am more than ready to undertake whatever practical measurements are necessary to back up my theoretical ascertions about gender based physical differences. In fact Inlook forward to the opportunity.

If this were the case Uncle it would discriminate against women surely?

Good point Uncle but then who is the Ernest who keeps posting with us? I am starting to think Twilight Zone stuff myself. Come to think about it, while I was on my 5th daiquiri at Hemingway's I saw this guy in the corner, in the shadows with black hair smoking a cigarette and talking to a camera I couldn't see! Time for me to get out of Manly I think.

I did add a photo but it just collapses into an imagepeg, not the first time?

Has anyone seen Ernest lately? I have been sitting on a daiquiri for hours here in Manly at Hemingways, still hasn't shown up.

His old man is there in the Adelaide rooms tonight, Jake said dad was there with all his mates from Romsey in Victoria! Do we need to get BBO to start working on Lever to get him over the line?
