Back again
About to saddle up ready for another week that lies ahead but firstly I better part with all the happenings that went on last week in district. Here we go.......

Hard for a soft farmer
Guru no tiller Brian “Farmer” Healy has been complaining to some Wallaloo natives how hard the Wallaloo grey pug is after he launched into his second cropping campaign in the Southern oasis. Bit different to the self mulching country of the North but in any event I think it might be the lack of moisture as the reason why “the pug’s hard to dug!!!!!” .

The new Aussie Tycoon
I actually ventured on down to the “Whitehouse” on the weekend to see what happen when “under the hand of guru”, well it’s all good as we had a very enjoyable day. There were many stories that got the crowd going but one such statement from Gary “Larry” Cameron sticks out. He said “With the Kevin Rudd $900 stimulus package Australian aborigines are buying up land in Thailand and are becoming Tycoons” Good one Larry.

Wine on the pine claims plenty of victims
The most talked about show for some time was the wine on the pine show at the Whitehouse a couple of weekends ago and the stories are starting to filter out as time goes on. SLF favourite and Hall of Fame member Bruce “Boofhead” Hendy said he has never been so crook the next day. Changing the colour of you drinks from brown to red has bought many unstuck in its time and obviously didn’t miss Boof.

Seven is a long way from eleven
High profile number cruncher Peter “7/11” Knights has a new nickname, as you can read its 7/11. Why 7/11? Another member of the “numbers nickname club” Rod “5/8” Reading was telling me that the popular accountant had a few troubles with the numbers at the wine on the pine show. You see he was telling everyone that he had to leave at 7pm but in fact it wasn’t until 11pm that he actually left. One word of warning if you are attending an event at the “Whitehouse” never and I say never announce what time you’ll be home. That’s when the trouble starts....If you have had trouble in the past try this one. Just as you’re walking out the door and she asks “what time do you think you’ll be home dear” you say “about half past” and bolt off to the ute. That way it’s opened ended and the ramifications aren’t nearly as bad.

International golfer a hit with the natives
Portuguese golfer Boris (can’t pronounce his last name) was a hit with the natives after he fired a respectable 84 off the stick having never played on scrapes before. When all golfer took their positions in the Whitehouse the 8 handicapper took a particular liking to Chris “Tangles” Webb who took him under his wing and converted him to VB and also invited him to a night on the pots at the Marnoo Hotel. I’m not sure of the outcome but I just hope our international friend is still alive.

Next trip the last
SLF legend and hall of fame member John “Jack” Cameron celebrated a birthday last Wednesday and I just forget what age he turned. But he did tell me that with his diminishing eyesight he doesn’t go on anymore trips, “the next trip will be to Gray’s Bridge” he said with a wry smile

That’s all
