I got a cramp that was so bad my whole calf was in a tiny ball up behind my knee and it didn’t go away for like 20 mins

Part of my right calf disintegrated taking a catch one day fielding at short leg, dude flicked it up off the pads I somehow jumped up and it landed in my hand, it felt like I got shot though and couldn't move for a few minutes.

Found out the extent a few weeks later when I went to see a physio because of a massive divot in my leg.

We need a captain and/or leadership group as someone mentioned earlier.
Should we nominate 2 people each with a reason why?

I'm on at least a dozen, the first big one I couldn't sit on the throne to crap for over a week, had to use the hands pressed up against the wall, couldn't get in the drivers seat either.

Word of warning... be careful with a pizza when riding your push bike home.

Clearly you didn't enjoy your last job, easy to understand I know plenty of public service people with a similar outlook.


I enjoy the comradeship on here, I can talk to good people, have a laugh, cop a pay out and not leave my desk, not waste my time or others in the office, having 3 screens makes it easier to have a perfect blend to maintain a good level of productivity too.

My job can be a pain in arse at times but I'm pretty lucky generally.

Push bike? No chance.
Years ago I was house sitting at Tennyson and got on the drink at the Grange Hotel. Walked up to Saints pizza bar & ordered 2 large - delivered.
“What’s the address?” the fella asked
“Don’t worry, I’ll show you when you drop me home with the pizzas” I replied.

Mate of mine tells a ripping story of Grenville.

Mate was playing district cricket, went to another blokes house after the game, had to pick up another bloke and ended up at another house where he was walking past a bedroom where Grenville was laying on the bed with a half a family pizza next to him, an open carton of VB cans on the floor next to the bed and empty cans littered on the floor.

"Pizza mate?" Gren asked.

"All good, thanks mate".

:lol:

Grenville and a group of mates played in a Holden Golf Scramble at Mount Barker years ago. Word is Grenville got through a 30 block of Red Tins in 18 holes......His group also won the event! This meant our Pro then had the "pleasure" of joining Grenville and his mates at the regional qualifier.... I recall him saying he didn't think his liver ever recovered.

Grow your beard for another week or so and you might pass as old enough to play in our under 18's.
