Only just heard it on the news -- I didn't know what you were talking about:)

The print version describes things further. A couple of quotes:

John McCartin (ex-wife's father) "You'll end up making licence plates in jail"
Niewand "And your daughter will be pushing up daisies".

On his wife's champagne "Did you enjoy your champagne? I pissed in that and watched you drink it"

To a male visitor "Don't be here in 10 minutes or you won't be here tomorrow"


Sad.

Hey Munchie. You got your shirt yet? Dang, how good are they? Thylo's outdid himself. Me's a very happy saccy. :D

BTW, I liked Turkey. ;)

Amazing that with all the great Ozy cycling stuf going on the news media pick up this f****n crap as the only thing worth printing about the sport. ******S!!!!!! :mad:

Oh yeah! Fits like a glove, excellent material weight, and the colours are ten times better than in the photo. Would make anyone overcome with joy. I'm so happy I'm gonna use that poxy smiley again :love:

I reckon I'll have to race in it this weekend. :) I'm bound to get asked who TC are, so PM me your 20 second spiel on what you build and why they're so good Wokka.

.in more ways than one :eek:

Um, what's going on here? You guys have pretty much been talking about bikes. Who are you guys, and what have you done with the "Real" Aussie Thread?

Now, to make a hypocrite of myself, 2 meeages:

Saccy, if you haven't already done so, make a deal with Climbo for his brakes. Looks like I'm not able to get as good a deal as I thought. I do have some levers though.

Climbo, the stem is an Easton EA60, 130mm x 0 degree, from what I can tell. Probably not what you're looking for, unless paired with a rise of more than 1.5".

Good to hear Munchie. You been for a ride in it yet? Did the colours run then leach into your skin, leaving you with a permanent Thylacine tatoo? ;)

Aww, Expat. You're 0 for 2 now with getting me stuff. How many more opportunities can I give you to rip me off? :p

Nah, thanks for trying. I appreciate it. I'll give climbo a chance to rip me off now. ;)

Well, if you want to pay more than $50, I can hook you right up. Don't know why people suddenly think the stuff is gold. Climbo will make you a good deal, he has less kids than me.

that's gold !!

Mine are worth heaps mate !!! They are fully sick mad brakes I tell ya.

Henk must be feeling OK, i see he got up to contest against Petacchi today.

I think that's for the mad scotsman, 130mm would be too long for him I'd say.

Hmmm... bad worm/virus traffic on the web today (started at about 11pm last night). Targetting MS-SQL Server on port 1434 and creating much havoc here. In the 8 hours since it first appeared our firewalls have logged TRILLIONS of packets on that port!!!!!! And that was while 80% of our PC's were turned off !!! :eek:

Look out for an increasingly slow day on the net as it spreads across timezones.

we seem to pop up everywhere !

nice pics.

Tour of Belgium coming up, Simms is on the team start list.

I "stayed up" to watch Rebecca Wilson on the show with Fatty and Sterlo----funny stuff!

Fatty was on Triple M, Melbourne, giving her a bit of shit the next night :p


"that's tops"

yeah, the show stunk, why put her on when they clearly can't stand her being there. Is she going to be on Beat the Boys and all that?? It's a stupid idea and apparently rated poorly. She'll be GOOOOONE soon.

I've never liked her, and I used to turn over when she started blabbing on The Fat.

I can't believe she has a column.

To me, she just sounds like a typical, silly, ranting footy mum, AM radio talkback caller :p

Expect Quick-Step to cream all comers.


Just had a look at thier start list for the ToB....Pecharomman is getting a ride. I thought he was persona non grata over there.

she from Melb? I only ever heard of her from the Olympics coverage. Don't read the paper much either.

She's that other d1ckhead, Jim Wilson's, sister.

yeah, dunno......dunno how she ended up up there and him down here

Maybe her and Caroline Wilson could piss off and cover sport for newspapers in Mozambique or Paraguay...

Maybe I'm misogynistic, but I CAN NOT STAND Caroline Wilson being at all patronising in that football environment.

"thanks, boys"

"I thought your show was very good yesterday, Gerard and Dwayne. You've both been doing a good job"

AAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHHH :fight:
