I just found out that Von Einem also lived not far and in the same suburb as my parents in the early ‘70s where I grew up. :shock:

Rain shortened match of 11 overs in Perth due to rain, new starting time 5.35pm local time, why can't they play the full 20 overs still?

C’mon Dutch you know why, local regulations/laws for when the lights have to go out

The reason why Midnight oil played one song short at Adelaide oval in 2018 to meet the 22:30 cut off

There’s probably no Andrew. Caro there to slow down the clock like there was a Waverley in 1978
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!!!

I'm actually not sure as I buy a lot of books online
I usually google and just pick a known seller like Booktopia
https://www.booktopia.com.au/banquet-de ... On%20(OLD)

It's worth a read although its bringing back some pretty painful memories

The koala will come to my office and say “oh, I see you’re eating lunch, I won’t take up much of your time then” and proceeds to woft on about what he’s after.
