People will always argue about it
but if it did change what would you like to replace it with. I work with a couple of Koories they wanted Eddie Mabo day
 
it's a sad day :(
i got up to watch the game (sorry Bandit:rose:, i am talking football) and nearly died when Germany scored that first goal.
and from there it just got worse.... and unless we protest that red card - and win the protest - there isn't a hope in hell that we'll beat Ghana (and we must win that one to stay in).
:(

stayed up late, slept 2 hrs, then got up to watch the game...... i'm going to be deadasleep by noon, i think!
 
come on be positive I barracked for geelong for forty years before they won a premiership
the aussies can still do it (i hope)
 
fish for dinner? what kind?

sounds like you have your offspring sorted out WQ

ho hum... feel like i need a cuddle tonight *sigh*

though the warm blanket and pillows are doing an excellent job

had steamed salmon parcels :)
caught last weekend off the mouth of the tamar - not the usual catch this time of year, and certainly not at that location.
i much prefer ocean salmon to freshwater salmon... much nicer flavour :)

my offspring/kidley beans definitely aren't sorted.... more like tolerated! (except for number1son, who has never once put a foot wrong!)

sadly, this has been a MAJOR blow to our campaign hopes :(
the socceroos will be more than a little dejected after losing such an important middleman (cahill), and given that we have the oldest team in the cup, it's going to be harder than ever for them to stay competitive.

as you can probably tell, i'm a bit shattered :(
 
yes shattered indeed - we were just outclassed.
There is a huge difference between Geelong and the Socceroos (I go actually barrack for Geelong too)

Geelong were/are playing a game they have always known, scattered throughout those 44 years they had more than a few attempts at the premiership and missed out.

Socceroos - new to the world cup scene at such a high level (since 74 - til 2006 now 2010)
an older team, guys with limited experience on the world stage (yes lots of them play for European soccer leagues but it isn't quite the same)
And look at who they are compteting against! Nations who LIVE for soccer.

Realistically we would have been lucky (even from the outset) to make it to the Round of 16 - certainly we won't get any further than that

realistically, you are right - it was a big ask.
still...... it would have been nice to come from no-where and do something spectacular.
*sigh*

Sir Roden Cutler Day
And bring back bonfire/ cracker night
 
I find it sad now that the media feel the need to lay blame for the socer loss.
We lost . . so what? why cant it just be about playing a sport instrad of creating so much more negativity?
 
I have no interest in Soccer-so I don't care! I do think people need to accept we lost and move on. It's only a game at the end of the day!
As for the republic-Webbo I have to correct you. The referendum we had was worded so that it would lose-I can't remember exactly how it was worded but it was along the lines of "do you want a republic led by a president elected by a 2/3 majority of the parliment?" Speaking for myself, I don't care if we have a republic or not-but I dont want that republic! If we have a president I want to vote for who it is, hence why I voted against it at the time! I bet I wasn't the only one do vote no for that reason. It should have been 2 questions "do you want a republic?" and "do you want (insert options here) republic? The Liberal government, led by Monarchist John Howard did this deliberately I suspect. The republic never had a chance!
Stuff all that boring shit-anyone get laid on the weekend?
 
Wish I was getting girly sex Bandit-I'm in the same boat as Gem.
I count self gratification as otherwise my score count for a month would be 2 or 3.

DeNoBoNeS, Welcome & great to see you here but this bullshit posting isn't the way to make contacts on this site & this thread, you need to post more, have a filled out profile & take the time to get to know the people first.

Believe me this is the way to go as I did make contact & we are now very happily married, as for your system this has never worked on this thread & rarely on this site so please venture back in often & take the time to get to know people.
 
ladIES

AB same with my school! I have to go in for some prof. development but no kids!

I struggle to understand how teachers in my day coped as there were no student free days, there were no free periods & huge classes for them to cope with. :confused:
 
I'm getting girlysex tomorrow.....;) :p :D

Early start for BANDIT's:heart: girly sex with her long time G/F arriving a in around one hour from posting.

I seem to get more excited about BANDIT:heart: having girly sex than she does although the noises that wander out of the bedroom soom to say differently.

Like many others I've been burnt out prior to the "SOCCER" World Cup with all the crap being fed to us with the media but I am taken back by the knockers who expected the Aussie team to beat the Germans one of the best sides in the game.

We are a minnow in this game compared to the rest of the world an just making it was a great effort.

I'm with you Batty & so are a lot of other I know.

YES !!!!! also some self service too. :D

As for the Republic of Aussie I'm for it as if you talk to anyone who served in Darwin or any of the island you will find out that when we needed support from the Poms that said fuck you were busy, your on your own, sort it out yourself so if it wasn't for the Yanks we would be all talking Japanese now!
