Re: harmony

Re: harmony
Can you remember Mark Anthony , John ? The mighty Brutus has told you that Caesar was an ambitious man and If twas so , was a grievous fault and grievously has Caesar paid for . Or words to that effect ? I only remember or partially remember as was dressed up in a white sheet in the crowd on the school stage waving a rolled up copy of the News of the World. Cheers JS ....

Re: harmony
Now listen here you man with the odd name, Cappy indeed.
If you want trouble you just be out side the Hare and Hounds tonight at 8 and I will show you trouble. LOL
But no, it is indeed good to see the site tis way, yes we may at time bicker but I do not believe that for the greater majority there is any spite in that.
We were all at sea and saw the good, the bad and the very ugly, but on most occasions we walked away.
Apart from Cappy that is as Mary had his leg hidden away.,
Can we continue in good form, that is up to all the members.
Now go and stuff your Turkey, pull your cracker, if you still can, and enjoy the season.
Next year has to be an improvement on the last two, boosters will see to that we are assured here in Oz.
And one last thing, no going to sleep before midnight on the 31st, said to be dad luck if you do.
Happy daze John in Oz.
Life is too short to blend in.
