        You’re going to take 40 shits?

        Most will end up likely being just gas.

        In the theme of the thread, this seems appropriate for the guy whose avatar basically looks like a large pile of white powder.

        Thats a big cuddly fluffy bunny my friend. Just like me.

          Right so the wife roped me into going to her work "team bonding day" where we'd all watch the rugby in a pub in London. Not ideal, but it's only the quarters, and I thought we'd be playing Japan/Scotland so limited stress. Until the Irish cocked it up for everyone.

          Yesterday we found out that not all the wife's colleagues want to get up for the early kick off, so we're watching it 1hr delayed at someone's house, then "hopefully" catching up to live broadcast in time for the NZ kickoff at a pub nearby. Because its the morning, and London, and no one's booked anywhere, this whole plan is fraught with danger. Exacerbated by the likelihood football piston wristed gibbons will have some sort of inconsequential game on that people in pubs will insist on watching.

          So I've made the executive call to watch the Eng game live with the boys over a liquid breakfast nearby, and meet the wife's work crew IF they sort their shit out and are watching the NZ game live.

          Also, asking for a friend, what's the difference between a divorce and an annulment?

                In all honesty i am not even sure i will invite anyone around, i'll sit on the couch outside, in front of the TV, start cracking beers from about 1pm. Curse my inability to find a winner. Switch to the rugby after the big races. Steak on teh BBQ between games, feeling loose and slightly toasted by our game.

                Bliss.

                This will be me for the semi's, though with the kid - I typically prefer to watch games at home, and don't mind at all being alone. Like the beers to be close, steak coked how I like it, and being able to watch a replay of something at HT if I want

                i love my kids, but they ask too many questions to be allowed to watch tense games with me. I am a terrible father...

                  It’s my birthday I can cry if I have to but don’t think I’ll need to.
                  I’m quite confident about this game as it feels the ABs are taking it as just another step that needs to be taken on “The Journey” opposed to the Oirish shenanigans!
                  Start with my kids helping me do final preparations on the vege garden that will see us not having to buy any for the next six months!
                  We will then graze on exotic cheeses seafood party pies and cheerios until the Oz Pom game where the men will go watch and the women amuse themselves.
                  By the time the game is over the girls will have hopefully gossiped out as we have no internet inside (even though the nearest Telstra/Optus shop is only 20 minutes away😱 so we will stream the game with three of us huddled around the largest mobile we have whilst indulging at an appropriate rate!
                  Life is good 🤓

                    Up around 6, smash some water & a banana. 90 minutes run, back around 45 mins to kick off. Time make some coffee, pancakes for kids and poached eggs on avocado and tomato toast, finished off with fresh chili, basil.

                    Watch England vs Australia with 2 of my brother in laws, drink some water and cheer on ... well, nobody actually.

                    Finish game, slice up some fresh fruit for me and the kids.

                      Then they can go and punch and irishman.

                      I'll do it.

                      punch, not skin and eat one.

                      Ok, if we lose you can eat one.

                      I'll have potatoes too I think, and a nice green lampshade.

                              But the teams will be named at some point, so there will be a bit of bickering about that

                              I think we need another story thread...

                                      In Mexico City for this one... Gonna have the Mrs ring around all the Irish bars in town to find one that’s showing it.

                                      Reading a bunch of trip adviser reviews I reckon this one sounds like a good option.

                                      “It was a good bar until I went to the bathroom and was offered cocaine. Management didn’t seem too concerned about it”

                                      How many tripadvisor stars did that reviewer give it?

                                        Yeah well pretty much a standard spring saturday so...

                                        • net session with the lad in the morning
                                        • home for a coffee and finish off the days form before loading a handful of long winded multi bets
                                        • arvo at home pretending to do odd jobs around the house, lawns etc while really knocking back beers and punting on anything with 4 legs and a long nose running around caulfield or randwick and if I'm struggling that morphetville or eagle farm might get some attention too.
                                        • 530/6pm usually end with a couple of boys from next door turning up to get their kids home for dinner but end up having a beer or three while I spout about the sport of kings and how good spring racing is. Make them stay for the last leg of a multi.
                                        • potentially angry bbq around 630pm following my lack of belief of a redzel three-peat
                                        • settle in to a bit of england vs aus between blowing the last of my cash on the wizard of the west at ascot
                                        • AB's game - probably on the couch with me and my nerves being comforted by abusive texts from aus mates and/or UK family (depending on outcome of previous game)

                                        Yeah same old saturday really

                                        Wife has confirmed she's actually out all day saturday and not in until late that evening so no longer any need to do aforementioned odd jobs around home etc. There is a need though for another box of beers

                                          I've over stocked. Running out would be a disaster
