Another dry week
It’s not unusual for it to be dry at this time of year it’s just that it hasn’t rained for so long is what’s making the punters slightly nervous. But alas something is coming according to one of my spies and it’s later this week and if that doesn’t happen I guess “Guru Margie” is just going to have to do one of her famous rain dances!!!

Just clowning about
Leading consultant Andrew “Clown” Newall has got an edgy client that just wants to get into it. I’m talking about sowing of course and I’m also talking about Brian “Farmer” Healy. “He just can’t hold off so I guess I better return the battery to the tractor” the big clown said.....

Upstart out
As reported on last week’s facebook site, Andrew “Upstart” Nisbet got kicked out of the Inter Dominion a couple of weeks. Apparently he was escorted from the bar all the way to the front gate and got told not to come back. We are yet to find out what he did.

Tiger trouble
I have to admit that there in crisis at Tigerland but I’m the optimistic type and I will be tipping them to beat the Kangaroos next week. I guess sometimes you have to hit rock bottom before you can get better and hey what’s another 5 years to wait.......

Nothing yet
I am yet to hear of any shenanigans from the “White House”, so I guess that when you’re “under the hand of Guru” then you behave yourself. But I’m tipping that things will warm up and the show will start soon. I suppose the only ones not looking forward to that are the wives...........

I warned you............
Thinking about that, I did put a warning out on facebook last week that John “Noisy” Nisbet was on his way to the beloved village and was going to hit the course on Saturday. I haven’t touched base as yet but I’m guessing if it was a clear day you would have heard him all over the course.

The old-rock-through-the-window-trick
I had my six monthly catch up lunch with former Callawadda whiz kid Sandy “The Know All” McGregor. He did remind me about the Melbourne Cup story. You see about half way through the day “The Know All” realised that he forgot the key to his house and his wife and kids were away. Not to worry he said as he sunk another pot, however when it was time to come home he had to decide how he was going to enter his Hawthorn East mansion. Of course it was late and he’d more than a few so he decided on the old-rock-through-the-window trick, that worked a treat, jumped through with only a minor cut, into bed a straight to sleep. That was fine until the police turned up, woke him up from his much needed sleep and questioned him about his break and enter and asked about the bloke that was asleep in his BMW in the garage. The police only left when he finally proved that the house was actually his and that the bloke in the car was his mate. How do I know all this?? I was the one asleep in the car.

Anzac day milestone
Anzac day is a wonderful day, the dawn service, the footy, beers for breakfast, etc etc. But Anzac day is a milestone day for one very famous Wallaloo farmer. SLF Hall of Famer Norm “Guru” Duxson is famous for saying “you must have the oats in by Anzac Day”. Looks like “Herbie” will be busy this week.
