I'll take my chances with the washing machine over some clunky affair that came into the local showground on the back of a truck assembled / operated by a gentleman who looks similar to this.

He's got small hands and smells like cabbage
 
He may actually be a nice guy but Gerard Whately is the most annoying commentator on the radio. Put up with him for the Cup now he pops up on the cricket. May as well put feckin Bruce McAvaney on. Starting to prefer the Channel Nine offerings.
 
Went to the Nambour RSL last night for a Parmie and beer (on a work trip) and upon entering they asked "had I made a reservation?" ... what the F.

They escorted me past dozens of empty tables to the far end of the restaurant to a small table. I then immediately had to walk all the way back to the bistro to order a meal and get a drink. WTF is going on in RSLs nowadays? I grew up in the country where you just rocked up and bought a meal, no dramas.

Coffs RSL was getting like that before we left, wanky as fark and impossibly to get a table unless you booked in advance

Worlds gone bloody mad. I think I want to move back to the bush..
It's just as bad out here
$7 for a schooner of Kosciusko Pale Ale from the local Workers club :/ (great food, but expensive drinks)
 
Hunter region is not the bush (sorry Spork). I'm talking about the proper bush. I've never been asked if I had a reservation at the Balranald RSL. They are just happy to see someone.
 
PS I don't mind Kosciusko Pale Ale.

PPS. Nobody go to the bush, it's a horrible place. Stay in the cities and east coast suburban sprawl it's much better. Please stay where you are. Nothing to see here, move along.

RSL's are just mini casino's now
Well, if our servicemen didn't die in wars so their decedents enjoy at least a dozen forms of gambling under the one roof, what was it all for?
 
I thought it was about stopping some arsehole from taking over the world the world.....but I have been wrong before
 
Veteran Affairs gives with one hand, the Government takes with the other two.
 
Report on the ABC about the high price of marijuana in the NT this is so sad poor education for indigenous would think that this industry would be thriving or at least self sufficient 30 year ago our neighbors had indigenous relatives that could supply Brisbane and later met another NT resident that claimed he was into agriculture of a different kind could they be victimizing marijuana users to sell more ice.
 
Sorry wynnum must be good **** up your way. I've read that post three times and still have no real idea what you are on about.
