Not so much Adelaide

but coming back from O/S and "being sprayed on the plane so you'll be real clean"

And also in a travelling vein, playing hunt your bags off the bag trolleys/trailers to the side of Adelaide airport.
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!

If you want to go quickly, go alone.

If you want to go far, go together.

When I was going to high school
There was a school concert with an Australian band in the school hall during a lunch break
I took a lass with me , we sat there and listened to about 3 songs, and I said
" This band is weird , do ya wanna leave."
She agreed and we both left the concert

That band was Skyhooks , when I was schooling in the 70s
These days they are one of my favourite bands

PS
Sorry to railroad this thread

When your Greg Chappell Cricket Centre Catalogue arrived and only one bat was above $100 the GN 100 Scoop!
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!

You didn’t have to wait for over 5 mins to turn right onto Adelaide Rd off 18th St in Gawler

F*** Me the traffic has grown like the town but not the road infrastructure
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!
