Australian Civ Group: The "Deity, my part in his downfall" edition

[Alexander's Horse]

Move the finals from Melbourne!

[Hydey]

1 final in Adelaide this friday night. How many more do you want away from Melbourne?

[Alexander's Horse]

whoever should get the home ground advantage - it would good for AFL.

I think I should start supporting Saint Kilda again after a 30 year absence.

[finbar]

I'd wait for next year, perhaps the year after. They're not quite yet mature enough. The jury's still out on the coach, too, IMHO.

[Alexander's Horse]

hey Hydey - how is the ALP going in Victoria? Is this Scoresby freeway business going to cost us?

[finbar]

Hey Horse. The cleaning lady found a little toy car - Porsche 959 with yellow and red patches - under the couch this morning. Did one of your rug rats lose it here?

And don't worry about Victoria. Bob Carr has been doing his damndest to lose it for us up here.

[Alexander's Horse]

Could be ours - but keep it for other little visitors. Ours have a zillion toys thanks to over-indulgent grandparents.

The Carr government seems to be imploding quite spectacularly. The only pleasure I'm getting out of it is watching Michael Costa crash and burn. I don't understand how the trains could run on time for decades and now don't.

Latham should find a way to remind voters he doesn't get on with Bob.

[finbar]

I agree with all three of your paragraphs.

King Bracksie is doing fine, the freeway runs through the liberal heartland of the eastern subburbs.

I say build the F*%#ing thing and I will pay the toll the 2 times I use it a year.

[Alexander's Horse]

Ah - it's good to know the freeway toll will mainly affect those who can afford to pay

And nice to know, with any luck, their school fees will be going up too

Unfortunately due to work committments, I am unlikely to play Friday night.

Also as there is a need to front up and accept the latest trophies for the table tennis cabinet, I will not be present on Saturday night either.

I will be involved in an all night card night Friday night as I need to supplement my income .

Was that you in Athens?

[trev]

I had to give Athens a miss unfortunately, work commitments got in the way, but Houghton tabletennis club won the A grade grandfinal and as a member of the winning team hopefully there will be some reward

when was the last time you were available to play?

I usually play daytimes (USA nights, Euro mornings)

But I'll get back to Aussie Friday nights soon.

Any chance any Aussies can play daytimes?
