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.

Hey, we are a rabble and will have another 10 years minimum of pain but we still have a more recent flag than half the comp :)
Tasmania will win a flag before we win our next one though

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

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
