Relation to the lad that played for North several years ago?

Yeah there's Kupsch's everywhere around Crystal Brook. Adam Kupsch is the latest head turner. He was in NAFA's U17's in last years Landmark Cup at Kadina


Cheers mate .. I have a vague memory of the one at North back in the 80's or 90's and IIRC he moved well

Don't drive down salisbury highway then Felch, in 3 months working in Elizabeth I'm dumbfounded at the amount of crashes I've seen or the aftermath I've seen, so far I think it would be nearing 20

I was over in Melbourne on the weekend too mate, on a work junket. I was lucky enough to stay at the Crown Metropol for a couple of nights, all expenses paid. Very, very nice establishment.

Also went to the Langham Hotel for dinner on Friday night, it was the best buffet i have ever seen, by a long way - Prawns, crabs, oysters, bugs, Indian, Sushi, roast, Chinese and Italian.. Mind you, at $90 a head, so it should be...


A few of the people from our conference were staying at the Metropol and they said it was pretty nice .. Also found a funky little pub/restaurant in an old shipping yard across from Etihad that was excellent .. I knew Melbourne had much more than Adelaide, but for all the times I've returned home from there I can remember it sinking in this much before, just how far behind them we are.

Yeah, i have to admit the same - i love going there, always plenty going on. Also went to a great little Greek restaurant on Brunswick St on Saturday night - awesome food, and good ouzo too !

isn't called the Woolshed by any chance CP. I'm pretty sure that is what the establishment across the road from Docklands is called and it is much classier than Adelaide's Hindley St shed.


Last year when I was there, went to a Turkish joint in Brunswick St quite possibly the best pizza I have tasted in my life time from that place

Conviction Kitchen - even if most of the food served up so far would be best described as 'O'Reagans Revenge'

U.S. researchers have announced the development of the world's first "anti-laser," a device that can absorb and cancel out a laser beam.
Scientists at Yale University say the silicon-based device can absorb an incoming laser beam entirely, converting its light to heat energy, the BBC reported Thursday.
The technology could lead to a new generation of supercomputers using light rather than electrons, the researchers say.
