You know. That annoying as XXXX show, presenter, game caller . . . that makes you want to get a gun licence just to do an Elvis.

It used to be morning TV shows like Today, and Sunrise (I rarely watched but when I did…)

But when I stopped watching telly altogether in the mornings before work I found myself noticeably happier on the way in. Funny how TV can influence moods.

I don’t watch much FTA tv these days apart from ABC n some SBS stuff. A def sign of getting old.

Commentators from a game you're not watching?
That I used to watch mate!

But on that theme...

I thought "you know what....."Why not watch the dragons last game of the year against Souths this weekend. Thought I had the place to myself then looked at the draw and realised its a Saturday night game and I'm out for a dinner with my missus.

I'll pop up for a semi final perhaps though mate. I'll be sure to let you know, but if you catch me I'm sure you'll let me know too..

What's "out to dinner" ?

My birthday mate. Kids are away and she’s booked a fancy restaurant up in the Adelaide Hills overlooking the whole of the city and coastline…

Be pretty rude to take the iPhone and stream the game, and swearing at the screen over a lobster n wine… you think?

I've just been in lockdown too long

Mate NSW & VIC is a whole different kettle of fish. I've gone back to NSW twice in the last year and been caught up in Covid & border issues twice. I'm desperate to get back and see my mum (who went into an aged care facility just before Covid kicked off again most recently) and close friends.

As a young boy- Guy Smiley.

As an adult- people on TV who have that same, fake, overly-enthusiastic persona.

Anyone seeing a trend here…
I watched NRL 360 the other night for the first time in a while, first time I've watched Vonny as host...

It was Monday night so Hooper was on... I just cannot stand that bloke. Like, he's worse than body odour or ebola. As he was putting on his you beaut big man Aussie cobber voice I found myself reaching for my phone to reply to him...then I had to remind myself - you're watching NRL on Fox, it's not LU Forums dickhead!
