    Don't get me wrong, I won't complain when you blaggards prank me like that, but really, why not just the one keg at a time on the single pipe from the meter? Granted it might not be as cold from the tap so quickly, but still.

    The Elegant Gentleman's Guide to Knife Fighting was a bit hit and miss I thought.  Some riotously funny stuff, but equally some seriously unamusing stuff too. Oh yes, well done Llama!

    That is exactly what I thought Ma. Some of the cleverest skits I've seen for ages, and many that were a swing and a miss. And yeah, again, Lllama - you never cease to amaze me. Your [adjusted and corrected] time put you right up there among Australia's best pro riders. You are farken ace.

    My guess is that the Parkes dish was stowed pointing up (they do that when it gets windy and perhaps other times) ...

    ... for a game of cricket.

    ... Besides, everyone who's not an idiot knows that aliens use cloaking technology so that their ships can't be seen with radar or laser beams.

    Yeah der! As if anyone doesn't know that.

  4. Apologies for blatant self interest plugs, but here is an interview with the retiring Cookie.

    Can't believe I didn't drop it in here earlier.

    Come on Vadar, come out of retirement and bollock me for being too soft on the doping questions, you know you want to!

    You should have asked him about the night following this; [IMG]files.cyclingforums.comdevil.png[/IMG]

    Damn sprinters get all the chicks.

  8. Wish I could tell you,

    But I dunno...

  9. Ha. Is Cookey a root-rat?

  10. Beeperereers - Have only seen Stromlo. Was there for the Masters TT champs in '09. Looks like an ace park. I won't be investing in a MTB any time soon.

    Top day at Bright today. Stopped EVERYTHING getting away. All day. All the way to the final climb. The 75kgs+ guys hated me. They wanted to be 'let ride up the road'. Not today. The climbers and sprinters loved it. Armchair ride for 80kms. Longest turn on the front was 14km. Climbing like a rock so this was how I could mix it up. Timing system meltdown across the grades. They've 'fixed' them but people are still saying [censored] is all over the shop. Disappointing as Bright has been ROCK SOLID in the past with timing. Few grumpy people about without times.

  11. Nice one Llammie.

  12. Am I getting paranoid? I think the [censored] even know which [censored] sites I've been visiting.
