Essendon supplements saga pales into insignificance:
Bendigo lawn bowlers suspended after 'unsportsmanlike' scuffle at finals match - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)

maybe it was roid-rage.

Did ASADA drug test the finalists?

If not why not? Lawn bowls is, after all, a performance sport.

I had to do that to a work colleague today. He asked how my Jeep went at Corowa! Thankfully someone else yelled 'it's not a Jeep, it's a Land Rover! - how could you not know that?!'

I've got 'Defenders' of my Land Rovers...

The Jeep got its name initially as a nick name for a GP ( General Purpose ) vehicle. The Land Rover was originally a General Purpose Vehicle........................................

I had an annoying Jeep driver in a Wrangler tailgating me on the freeway yesterday. I hate tailgaters. i was in the F6 and it has Brembos and stops really well. I would hate to think what would happen if I had to stop suddenly. I doubt his POS Wrangler would stop in time. It really gets my goat when I have my girls in the car. If I can I am always on or a few Ks above the speed limit. I hate people who sit in the right lane and don't do the speed limit too. I hate people who try and sneak up the left lane when they know it ends and then force there way in. I had to let someone in yesterday as I was in the F6 and didn't want it scratched. I won't budge in the Disco.
Gee I hate a lot today. Maybe it's this city driving thing.

Heres a tip for you Carl. When bing tailgated I slow down to increase the gap to the vehicle ahead. If the tailgater doesn't move I slow down even more. When they give up and overtake. I follow at their pace and use them as cop bait.

As they say in 'Game of Thrones' - 'Winter is Coming'

Turned the heater on this morning for the first time since October. Last night I had a blanket over me, today I'll happily pay for the gas. . It was a chilly 12 degrees inside when I got up, now a comfy 19.

Well, another Summer gone, another wrong foecast of 'a long and hot one'. Only got a couple of days that reached 40 and probably a handful more that topped 35. That's 2 years in a row they have said that - and got it wrong. I suppose they say it every year and they are bound to be right eventually - 3 years ago was a hot one... Maybe next year...

March was warmer than usual. I only turned my heater on for five minutes yesterday to make sure it worked. And it is almost April. I usually have the heating on at night by mid march. The sun is almost out now so it should be warming up a bit.
