Ouch.

We (wife and I) stayed on this tiny southern Thailand island about 20 years back. There were us, 5 Swedish ppl in 2 groups, a yank and a new Zealander. Massive hurricane hit and we were stranded. The fishermen in the Muslim village would not go to sea so we hung out and ate all the islands chickens over the next week.

One night, one of the Swedes claimed he was robbed, and that meant it was one of us... Or one of the people from the village. They didn't like being accused of theft, and eventually the Swedish guy admitted he never had any money and could not pay for his room or food. It was a ruse.

He was tied up and put on a boat for a rough trip back to the mainland.

I guess island people get a bit grumpy too. They don't like thieves.

I've got a long boozy team Christmas lunch/ wetting the baby's head tomorrow and then five weeks off getting used to life with the newly arrived little one. I'm also going to take three months off at the end of next year to be Mr Mum.

PS - Thanks for the tip on the pram; we ended up going with the Redsbaby. With all the specialised websites, blogs etc for expectant parents, Mrs see see and I thought it was pretty funny that we ended up going with a recommendation from a footy forum.

Mr Mum's.

I hope the weird looks that I experienced in 2005 are long gone.

I did it for 12 months back then and despite the fact that society had chilled with it...the hypocrisy was there for me to experience.

Good luck and enjoy...and raise that middle finger to the first campaigner who scowls you as you go to change the babies nappy in the so called 'Parents Room'.

I've been off since July with the little one and it is brilliant. Its hard and taxing and all that but great. I am back in February and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't looking forward to it, but I would just as happily continue staying home with Little forwards.

I will let my wife know that all her hard work researching was passed off by me for internet credit.

Nope. I get weird looks but I don't really care about that.

Only thing that really shits me is if people as if I am baby sitting. The answer is no I am not I just her father.

What's the deal with closed car parks at Chaddy this morning at 8-8:30am? They don't want customers in the peak shopping period of the year?

Is it 24/7 shopping hours there yet? Seems odd. Maybe to clean the carparks? Dunno.

Coles has every register open as promised.

Pity about the other 51 weeks of the year when 2/8 are open.

Here's a bit of escape from the Grumpyiness of the Season.

Pick Your Shit Song of the Decade.
Round 1-The 1980's

Hated it then...hated it now...hate the fact that the music was also plagiarised into the Ghostbusters song a few years later.

How the **** does an 18 month old pair of $250 RayBans have the rubber sleeve fall off the arm at the ear hole?

I think Ray Bans have a two year warranty.

Gaso cant find receipt....and bought them at Highpoint....I have used the old sleeves on a pair that the lenses are rooted on.

I'll see your Huey Lewis and the News and I'll raise you Katrina and the Waves.

I couldn't stand this shit song back in the 80's and still hate it. We had an 80's themed work party this year and I advised the boss that if some bastard played this at any point of the evening, he'd be having to deal with Worksafe regarding a death at a company function. Katrina can GAGF!!

Gaso, I love you like a brother but, can you get a hold of the talking in the third person please? Makes Gaso look foolish.

...well okay.

The only time from this point forward is to use the line of my great mate from last summer IUB...

"Gaso stay at your place."

The end.
