WFMB:  Man of the match in the over 35's for my team.  Lol.  Old man Muz still has it. (Fluffed a 1 on 1 though.)

Also WFMB:  Been assigned 2 more ressies as a centre ref.  Must have done all right for the one I did last week.

  

Nice work mate.

WFMB:

LFC capping off the season with their highest ever points tally (could've broken the outright record if Allison and VVD didn't both fuck-up against the Gooners) and knowing that Lovren will never play for us again.

Looking forward to a brief break and then returning in September with less of these bullshit k/o times.

+ 1 :)
Onya Muz.
WFMB, our O45 team won 6zip Saturday, funny when your an ol fart and your flogging even odler ol farts incl gifting 2 OG's, one keeper couldn't bend over quick enough to stop the ball followed soon after by a koff pass back that he failed to control through to the net lol.....
Comedy grass roots and damn those beers taste good !.

Cheers PB and LFC.

 On the subject of beers all the over 35s play in the stadium in town but the bar is closed for Covid so like derros we all stand around in a circle in the carpark drinking beers until about 11pm.  (Games start at either 6pm or 8pm.)

Not to talk our comp up too much but the standard is actually quite good.  In our team the head coach of the CPL team for our club plays striker, we have a former Socceroo and NSL player and a bloke that played with Poppa in Canberra and played professionally in Croatia.  Not to mention all the other blokes who are more than handy.

It may not be the quickest but I'm enjoying my football more than ever because there's rarely any boot and chase.  Given the wide range of ages in the team 90% of the game is played on the deck which is great fun.  And because we play in the stadium the pitches are like carpet.  Not a word of a lie.  I was talking to Topor Stanley at a training clinic on the outside pitches when they were up for a friendly and he was like geez these pitches are better than ours at Parra.  I said wait until you get inside.

Watching some of these former guns up close is awesome too.  They just always seem to have so much time and never lose the ball.

Wfmb:  snoop dogg listening to let it go in his car. 🤣🤣 who knew you needed that 

Nice one.

Went from 2 games AR in State League 2 here on one weekend, to 2 games in NPL Youth and 2 games Masters in the centre the following weekend, and then 2 games State League 2 in the centre the weekend after

WFMB: I have never been able to wear sunglasses, whether that be because my script was too strong as a kid and in my older years, that it was far too expensive,  but i finally bought some and got them today.

It was a perfect day today so i wore them and it was seriously like... my eyes took their very first breath! (Amazing right!) It was as if i was able to see more clearly than ever. I've missed out on alot... or easily impressed. 

Nice one, good for you.

I'm hoping to have a similar feeling once I get my eyes lasered once this pandemic is over.

Wfmb:  enjoying family time in lockdown.  It's been difficult with the kids wantinf to play at the park litterally in the front of my house . But its been great going for walks with them 

We're in!!!!!!

12 and a half month build and we're in.  Rent begone.

No blinds (they're on order), wardrobes still to be built, driveway getting done this week and about 6 months of landscaping every weekend ahead of me but we're in.

Best thing I've ever done was be the builder's labourer on this house.  Can now look around me and say I rigged the steel, I stood those walls, put those trusses on, fixed the cladding on the outside, painted the outside, built the deck, laid the floor, built a bar, whacked up the glass balustrade and a million other little things.

Slightly overbudget due to scope creep and over time by a few months but couldn't care less.  Woot!

Congrats!!!!

Bought my house about a year and a half ago and the sense of pride I get just from making a dirt patch a lawn (for example) is huge so can't imagine how good that must feel having had a hand in so much of the build.

Congrats!

I just joined the ranks of the landed gentry also, we settled during level 4 lockdown when the market for apartments really bottomed out due to nobody wanting to rent with no internationals etc. So many rental vacancies, so I figured it was the time to strike and buy from someone wanting to offload. It's a small apartment, but my days of putting up with dropkick housemates are over.

Cheers lads.

Not really a WFMB, but kinda, went and bought a cheap coffee machine for my parents for Christmas from a large retailer,  service was bad so we just went with what we thought we'd get. 
Get to check out and we got the manager of the store serving us,  was really unattentive and was cracking it with me because the eftpos terminal wasn't working properly.  When it did i looked closely at the amount on the terminal as it said $19.99 (shouldve been $99) i questioned it but she was too busy chit chatting to another worker,  so i paid it,  checked our bank account to make sure,  yep $19.99, it appears to have gone through as a lay by and we were just charged the deposit. 

She was rude,  And wouldnt listen, so oh well, however because it's a place that takes details,  I'm sure they'll call us in the next 60 days asking if we're going to pay the difference and pick up the order or realise they stuffed up. Ill see how they react to decide what I'll do. 

You dont have to. Their fuck up not yours. You got the receipt.  They have to wear it. I copped one where instead of paying 99 for shoes I paid a paltry 9 bucks . They wanted me to pay the difference but I'm like its been 2 weeks and you guys fucked up but not checking

Congrats Muz. Very impressed with the DIY aspect. You were probably able to keep an eye out on overall quality as well. Overbudget and scope creep are natural consequences with home builds, so it's not big deal. 

Congrats Pala. Welcome to Strata Wars with neighbours now.

This. Similar situation happened to me as well. Scanner came up with 2c for a $20 item. I said, I'd buy it for 2c, so the checkout person just processed it.

Yep. If they notice right away then its different but if they only notice after a week or two then they gotta wear it.They get told to always double check and always count money out when dealing with cash

WFMB: Tennis playing whinging about their lockdown, hilarious but given that some of them have come from countries that never had to do it you can see why they're raging.

-PB

Bunch of entitled wankers.

WFMB. Eddie McGuire getting the arse / resigning.

WFMB:  Enzo's breakdown since Trump lost the election.

Loving every salty minute of it.

His and marks meltdowns have been epic to read and watch.  And they call the left snowflakes 

You should read Collingwood and joffas  pages. The fans are showing why  there was an independent review of the club 

Cheers mate!

WFMB: Actually opening & reading this thread for the first time that I can remember (ever?), and seeing friendly, positive, non-trolling discussions. Really brightened my day.
(Only read the last 2 pages, maybe things are different further back)

Wfmb: Sydney yungin's song eshay.  Great for a laugh

Update on this.  The bloke I mentioned above as a former Socceroo is not playing for us this year.  Seems he's now the coach of Nepal.  Lol.
