Wrong thread.

Smith?

No, Scotty 'Dog' Mitchell beat Adams 7-6.

Adams was sensational on Saturday night. Hit the wire on double 12 for a 9 darter.

Mitchell won in the deciding set, it was a great match. Adams was averaging 117+ with his first 9 at one point.

All that was missing was a throng of drunken idiots singing football songs.

Or an ability to maintain such form for longer than 9 darts.

You should enter next year Jeff, it would be an easy 100k for you.

It wouldn't Union, they are all better than me, they are significantly worse than the bulk of the players in the PDC though.

Undoubtedly, but to write the BDO off as a bunch of pub-level players called "Smith" is a bit disrespectful.

Just found out that a guy I was at both primary and secondary school is now ranked 21 in the BDO and was put out in the preliminary round of this year's world championship.

If he ever becomes famous, I will go to the tabloids to tell them about the time I chased him and his little brother because he shot an air gun at my dog and also about the time someone at school filled the outer of a burst football with stones and threw it in the air for this guy to head it - which he did.

I'll make a fortune.

What's got into you, Cane?

You got all sensitive about Grimsby, now the BDO. Is impending fatherhood softening you up?

I did not dismiss them as pub players, don't recall I ever did. Accepted I got Adams name wrong, but am not guilty on the other charge.

It happens, pal. It happens.

I stood on the platform talking to a southerner this morning. He mentioned how the wind was "biting" and it goes "right through you". I found myself agreeing with him. It's all over for me.

You should have been stood there in short sleeves Tina and when he said it just given him a look of withering contempt and mumbled Jessie under your breath, but obviously just loud enough for him to hear.

If windows had have had short sleeves it would have revealed his thermal undergarments.

I say all this Sean, I wear a coat that I genuinely believe to be the warmest thing ever manufactured.

I had a coat, hat and gloves on.

I feel ashamed.

WTF? You nancy.

I haven't yet lowered myself to wearing a coat, traces of northernliness remain.

Tech by Tumi?

The charity shop didn't have any though.

I can't mock Tina, went to watch the nephew play football Saturday and wore Long Johns. Can't decide whether they make me a jessie or are northern enough to give me a pass.

I was doing the bins and chopping some logs in shorts and t-shirt on saturday. Felt I got a few looks of respect from passers by who wrapped up like Tino with a 'sniffle'.

You soft bastard.

What's going on with you lot? Gloves? Long Johns? Long Johns?! Did I say Long Johns? Was your nephew playing football in Siberia?

No South Yorkshire. I am not prepared to be more specific than that given Tina's stalkerish ways.

Did it have some sort of freak micro-climate - was it 15 degrees colder than the rest of the country?

I've been walking around naked for the last couple of weeks/months.

Well, up until last Saturday when it dropped down to a chilly 23 degrees.
I had to throw a pair of Reg Grundies on... and a fine cotton T-shirt yesterday evening.

LD is Gordon an area of Sydney? If not do you where Gordon Cricket Club is based?

That's 2 suburbs north of where I grew up.
Their rugby and cricket teams play at Chatswood Oval though... about 10 km north of the bridge.

Is there a job going there?

All this was from this cool new thing I found, Sean.  www.google.com

It will never catch on.

Ha, just found it myself. I was google mapping sydney (centre-ish). Quite a bit out of town. An aussie from a few years ago played for them and one of the younger guys at the club is going out there in a few weeks.

I'm just as shocked at the revelations, I'd never wear gloves, a hat and/or long johns and I'm fairly soft as jessies go. I do wear a scarf on occasion but only when that occasion involves being out with Galtova as it was a gift from her and a scratchy throat is better than a sore ear.

Off the subject, I made olive and cheddar bread using a recipe I dreamed up in the bath (non-radox). It was pretty sh1t.

You know what you look like to me, with your good scarf and your cheap phone? You look like a rube. A well scrubbed, hustling rube with a little taste. Good nutrition's given you some length of bone, but you're not more than one generation from poor white trash, are you, Galted?

I'd think carefully about throwing accusations like this Tino. ...you're the only one here who is likely to have been fathered by his own son

You see a lot, Tino. But can you turn that high-powered perception onto yourself? Tell us what you see? Perhaps you're afraid.

Actually, they play at Beauchamp Oval, Chatswood (nice ground) and Bert Oldfield Oval in Killara.

I used to hang out around those places "growing up". Not too far from the city relatively speaking. 20 mins by train. It's the middle of the North Shore in between the Lower (closer to Harbour) and Upper (heading north up towards Hornsby on the outskirts) North Shore.

Those are the "posh" residential areas... but the demographic has rapidly changed over the last 30 years or so. Many wealthy Asians (and quite a few Saffas too!) live there now although that part of Sydney is perhaps the most Anglo in all of Oz. It sort of feels like the Hampstead Heath area (to me)... large mansions set amongst more established streets and manicured gardens. Surrounded by wild areas all around...

Can I be Miggs?

Multiple michaels, he can tell you what your cnut smells like without having to take a whiff.

Jesus wept, I was playing football yesterday in shorts and T-shirt, on top of a hill in Yorkshire.

Ill represent chaps, don't worry...

Look for severe childhood disturbances associated with violence. Our Seany wasn't born a criminal, Galted. He was made one through years of systematic abuse. Seany hates his own identity, you see, and he thinks that makes him a transsexual. But his pathology is a thousand times more savage and more terrifying.

Does that mean he got bummed at school?

No, definitely not. No one could that successful with women having been bummed at school.

Sean definitely wasn't ever bummed at school. He might have played touchc*ck a few times (a week) but no bumming went on.

The other boys did use him as a toast rack though. There he'd be, alone in a cold schoolroom, a hot crumpet burning his cheeks with shame.

Hot crumpet.

KFC Boneless Banquet. Does exactly what it says on the tin.

Just stop the thread being michaelsed...

Spicy corn chowder, and a ham & mustard sandwich.

Fine by me...

Cheese & ham & saladwich.

Popped out in the car, had a bit of Bryn Terfell on. How cultural is that?

What popped out in the car?

Ham salad sandwich for me. Nice enough but boring, suspect I need to vary up my lunch time food a little more.
