BigFatDave Posted June 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2009 Outside me window on the 10th floor there's a small square patch of blue that Pomgolians call the sky. It may not be much but that's all there is, folks! Namedrop time - Bumped into Leigh at Brekkie today - he looked better than I did. Working in Pomgolia is having some effect on him; he reminded me that whenever he comes up to Darwin it rains, but then whenever he comes up its the Wet Season - Hello? Also met a fair few Forum members yesterday including Sandie & Shazzy in the Walkabout - where else? I managed to negotiate a discount with the Walkabout Manager for bulk purchases and gave the old "Drink the Bar Dry" record a serious shake. MainMan & NewportSpeedwayHH gave me a lift to Newport for the NL match - good fun - sEDgy2 blew up another donk - Dixietherev was in good form and Lady S and Haza tried to corrupt me with alcohol, but I'd had a big 24 hours on some war-surplus RAF Carrots and managed to blow 'em away. The Kirbies from the Gold Coast turned up at Practice - it doesn't matter where I am on this planet if there's a speedway fixture on the Kirbies will turn up!! Millenium looks a picture, all digits crossed for an Aussie Victory. Walkabout at 1100 today for the Wallabies v the Frogs then its on to the P.O.W. and see who survived last night.

I agonised over which section to put this in before plumping (Freudian Slip?) for this one. I figured anywhere out of Oz'd be International, wouldn't you agree? IMHO there's more in this than just speedway and just general, but nothing on favourite types of biscuit yet. Will we be seeing you in Poland? Alas I haven't quite mastered this laptop yet so am having a few problems with "Cut 'n Shut", but not as many problems as some folks with their veiled digs at my age - mind you I'm enjoying being referred to as "Middle-Aged" when I'm borderline Geriatric, maybe more recent joinees should remember that the Forum is for all members and all viewpoints, not just their own blinkered opinions. If you don't wanna read the thread you don't have to; its a very useful tool for me to catch up with many of my friends and fellow correspondents, (some of whom may just happen to be employed in the Sport I love,) secure in the knowledge that very few of them will have the temerity to attack the poster rather than the post, especially when they can do so in person while I'm on the loose in Europe. In the meantime I'll carry on having a good time and letting my forum buddies know all about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigFatDave Posted June 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2009 (edited) Obviously along with how much alcohol he consumes dont you just enjoy the name dropping Very name-dropping evening last night at the Walkabout and beyond, fortunately the Australian Constitution is made of sterner stuff; suffice it to say I had a ball last night and the optic nerve was excellent. Everyone's favourite Aussie managed to get himself adopted by a bunch of comely refugees from a costume party - all dressed as pirates, Jim lad!! (and I have the photos to prove it ) The Colonial Party were in fine form celebrating Crumpy's victory and the bar staff managed to enter into the spirit of things by mistakenly giving me too much change more than once. Mariusz the Wandering Pole said "G'day" and by the looks of things will be saying it again a few times soon. I renewed acquaintances with a certain party animal Elite League rider among others and we carried on where we'd left off in Sydney a while back and managed to make it back to base just in time for a replay of the final on Sky. Phone was running hot for a while after my exclusive radio interview on Australia All Over alerted folks back home to Crumpy's success. One mate reckoned he'd never heard me sound so erudite and intelligent, but then it did go to air at about 0630 hrs Sydney time and he was still partying from the night before! For any Masochists out there I'll post a link to the show later. As a result of my on-air expertise (dribbling sh!t is one of my specialties in case you hadn't noticed) I've been invited to do another one on my return, and more alarmingly for Pomgolian Tourists I've been re-appointed as Official Interpreter for the upcoming TravelPlus Pilgrimage to the home of Speedway. Everyone should do Cardiff at least once in their lives. On to Newport. Edited June 28, 2009 by BigFatDave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
