firecracker night!!
And don’t let the old man inWe form a visual impression of posters by ..not too surprisingly ...their posts..and to be totally honest I've never had the sense of having any old guys here...and by old guys I'm talking attitude...not age!. I've met lots of "old guys" ranging from those fresh out of school to those driving everyone nuts at the nursing home.
Remember....first thing straight out of bed....pants THEN shoes!
I'm guessing Elmo Fudd was one of your favorite cartoons. Allways had a loaded rifle ready. Never did get that waskely wabbit though.View attachment 69736

Thanks for the tip but I will never remember it.Remember....first thing straight out of bed....pants THEN shoes!
just wear your pants to bed. Problem solved.Thanks for the tip but I will never remember it.
Sounds pretty tough. Are you sure you weren’t a Wests supporter?Ah yes, the 70’s, the good old days of sex, drugs & rock n roll (supposedly), long hairs & sharpies, great music (still imo, my kids have discovered this as well), hippies and the prancing religious group (on every corner) in Sydney at least.
The magpies and the tigers, venomous enemies on game day.🫣
Dad down the boozer, while mum looked after us.
21st div would pick you up and take you home and watched as your dad give you a wack around the ears
Shit box cars, B&W television, and hot as buggery in summer, no AC in them days.
Going to school with holes in your shoes (my kids still don’t believe this), yep the good old days.
But we lived to tell the tale![]()
You don't realise any of it at the time, cause everyone else was in the same boat.Sounds pretty tough. Are you sure you weren’t a Wests supporter?
Being the little shit I must've been . . . I remember one Saturday after playing Enfield Feds, IIRC . . . must have been all of 8 or 9yrs old . . . we had a pack of tom thumbs and casually snuck around the back of the catering tent that was manned(or womanned) by what I now know to be just a few mums helping out . . . anyway, lit the tom thumbs, lifted the back flap of the tent and slid them in. We must've got 15m away before the mayhem started, and I can still hear the shrieks from those poor women today.firecracker night!!

I am a member of this group too. I haven't posted for ages but when I saw this one Macnaz I just had to. Brought back such fond memories of the old man and I watching these test matches. I lost the old man a few months ago but those times were so good. I still claim the 'no try' of Langlands was one of the best 'tries' I ever saw and I am pretty sure we woke the neighbours to boot.Anyone remember getting up at 3 or 4am to watch test matches against the poms. My dad would wake me up to watch with him , any other time I'd never be allowed to even be awake let alone watching Telly.
Some of my favourite memories with the old fella.Anyone remember getting up at 3 or 4am to watch test matches against the poms. My dad would wake me up to watch with him , any other time I'd never be allowed to even be awake let alone watching Telly.
The players you blokes have had, Provan, Gasner, Smith and Raper instantly come to mind.
For us, Beetson, Provan, Bolton & Leo (to many to name them all) are still embedded.
Hated that deadshit robot and that stupid brat Will Robinson.Favourite show, Lost in Space.
