Good role models too.Top Cat, Wacky Races, Motor Mouse and Autocat, Chattanooga Cats, It's the Wolf! were all my part of my regular Saturday morning cartoon fix!
Too much fun!
No mate , I wore glasses. when I was a kid , big thick coke - a - cola glasses , my school mates would called me four eyes ( an affectionate term for their little mate I dare say ? ) ah kids can be so cruel, however getting back to the old Pye television I would watch the Flintstones and the Jetsons with of course every kids favourite Disneyland on a Sunday evening.Richly undeserved.

Yeah, I’m glad you didn’t take the bullying to heart. I was regularly nailed playing footy. Booted in the face, concussed, a broken wrist, impaled in wire fences. All part of growing up in the city.No mate , I wore glasses. when I was a kid , big thick coke - a - cola glasses , my little school mates would called me four eyes ( an affectionate term for their little mate I dare say ? ) ah kids can be so cruel, however getting back to the old Pye television I would watch the Flintstones and the Jetsons with of course every kids favourite Disneyland on a Sunday evening.
But that was yonks ago , I grew up on T. V. diet of the old black and white Tarzan and Hopalong Cassidy movies etc. etc.
Merely a normal kid who built cubby houses in the bush , hunt for frogs in the creek and throw the little blighters on the road and watch the cars run over them - as I said just a perfectly normal child growing up in the late 1950’s .![]()
Jones occasionally corrected some of the questions on Pick-a-Box rather than answer them. He is also the owner of the world’s largest private collection of autographs and has academic qualifications from about ten universities. A truly incredible mind.Mate I was more inclined to watching the shows that had genuine geniuses in them such as Bob and Dolly’s Dwyer’s ‘ B.P.s Pick- A - Box ‘ and Professor Julius Summer Miller ‘s - ‘ Why Is It So ? ‘
The former Labour politician Barry Jones was the stand out brain in ‘ Pick - A - Box , great viewing for any young kid .![]()
He said on a poddy b4 Christmas that they had not talked to eitherA mate just texted that the Mole is saying Flanno has rejected talk of us chasing Tualagi & Averillo.
I guess that means we missed out?
Sure were great times.No mate , I wore glasses. when I was a kid , big thick coke - a - cola glasses , my little school mates would called me four eyes ( an affectionate term for their little mate I dare say ? ) ah kids can be so cruel, however getting back to the old Pye television I would watch the Flintstones and the Jetsons with of course every kids favourite Disneyland on a Sunday evening.

Probably around 50 years since I heard that song. Still remember it .Far out manYeah, I’m glad you didn’t take the bullying to heart. I was regularly nailed playing footy. Booted in the face, concussed, a broken wrist, impaled in wire fences. All part of growing up in the city.
One of my kids, he’s a geek. He’s going against the family tradition of hopelessness and may yet make something of himself.
Alas he’s a panther fan, I’ve tried many times to belt that out of him ( only kidding). It’s a failure in my book, but he’s still my kid.

Thunderbirds were must watch tv.Good role models too.
And if you were up early enough:
As a kid, I desperately wanted to work for the thunderbirds. As I got older, I realised they were only puppets. There’s no international rescue, it’s only international invasions and war.
Ms Lady Penelope, what a stunner.
Too smart for me, but @Gareth67 would be in with a chance with his smooth talk and intellectual interests.
In the podcast Flanagan said we are after an outside back but yes he said we haven't spoken to Taulagi and Averillo which seems odd considering all the speculation of Taulagi most likely signing with Dragons and still being on the open market. Which outside back is available and better than Taulagi?He said on a poddy b4 Christmas that they had not talked to either
Thanks Slip.All the best @Gareth67 & @Surfclub Saint and may you both continue on your long journey to recovery.
I think the issue with Zac is his manager. They are supposed to look after their clients. It is their job to get them players what is best for them not a bigger commission on their own behalf. If I was Zac I would be sacking his management team first before worrying about my next move.
I know from a mate of Lomax's that Parra were talking to him a while before he joined and for him to know surely the NRL would have as well but they did nothing as the should with this scenario. Sucked in to Parra and this is just karma on both them and Zac. Zac because his dollars are much more less than what he and his manager expected for 2026.

Is this a wind-up?Lomax.
I have no knowledge, nor have a I read any speculation on this but I would be shocked if we weren't at least discussing Lomax in some capacity.
That's a complex situation and Flanagan on the podcast basically said we don't want Lomax back. We'll also have to offload a player to Eels. Looks like Eels want a centre and if Lomax plays at Dragons again it'll be wing so we can't afford to offload a centre.Lomax.

Are you serious?Lomax.

I understand this is a rumours thread however let's not start rubbish ones.Lomax.
