The usually ebullient and previous comp leaders  known and loved as "Les Worrywarts" are suspiciously quiet tonight... are they bring treated for  shock..? or in another Team Conference?

Yours truly is seriously humbled by today's OTP (Outstanding Team Performance) to kick their worried bottoms ..well done, Sharne Jen Rob Graeme and mustelid moi ..BRILLIANTISSIMO.

The Moet is flowing here at 1 Rocky Road, Bedrock ...and the sexy little derriere belonging to Mrs W is swaying enticingly from the kitchen ... life is good ..especially when one of your best mates is home from hospital after  8 days of misery with life-threatening shite ....reminding us all that family, friends and fun are the best things in life.

Thanks for the match, Why Worry?   I daresay there will be a rematch n the not-too-distant future.

And thanks, as always, PJ, for the updates throughout another exciting afternoon.

Hi Peter , hope u do not mind if i make a small enquiry re our saturdays team total against our worthy opponents The Friggers.

After race 9 our total was $1820.00, after race 10 our score was reduced to $1776.00, where i thought it would read $1924.00.

I apologise in advance if I have made an error , may I ask if u would check this for me please.

Thanks for all u do Peter, we who would love to have your skills appreciate your time.

Rex.

Just double checked and yes the answer was:

Needs to be played in different weeks. Sorry should have specified that earlier

[11 June, on the old site toward the end of the original "Winter Draft Comp" thread]

all good, John... thanks for the heads-up ...PJ, we will play the Joker next weekend and keep the HTD for later

So "homo" is ok but "Dickhead" is not respectful?

It's ok mate Hesi and I like to do some lighthearted stirring. No malice intended. As an Ardern supporter though his left wing credentials are somewhat damaged by his use of such language 😎

  • your opposing captain might play the HTD card in which case the H2H can be avoided
  • and even if that doesn't happen, the match could be a draw (hopefully not at 0-0 though  LOL

Of course forgot about HTD, but no draws in this comp

I flatted with a fellow called Geoff Haden, Andy's cousin.  He died youngish, of a blood clot that went to his heart from his leg

A big jolly chap, who called everyone a big homo, totally in good humour

The saying has sort of stuck

Got to be careful though, so much interpretation between the spoken word and the written one

Apologies if anyone is offended
