Apparently a number of shops are out of baked beans. Fun times at work tomorrow. :eek: :p
 
Going through a whole heap of chests that my mum saved from my childhood.

Found a heap of Masters of the Universe and Star Wars stuff... Playing with Castle Greyskull with my son is awesome.

Also found a heap of hand held Nintendo games from the 80's.... Just vintage stuff.

When I was a boy in the fifties and early sixties -living in Evandale and going to school at Wellington Road (Trinity Gardens today) and Norwood High - the Adelaide Oval was only a tram ride along Payneham Road into North Terrace, then a quick walk down King William Road and across the Torrens into the Oval.
No pain at all.
The pain in those days was reserved for Norwood's on-field lot, and a look at the SANFL ladder at the end of nine seasons out of ten would not have labelled the Norwood region as 'greater.'

It's a small world LR. I grew up in Evandale, and went to Trinity Gardens. By rights I should have barracked for Norwood, but no as a kid I decided Port was the team for me.

Just to confirm it's a small world - my mother-in-law went to the Wellington Road School.
 
This is good to hear, Chevy -
One area that PAFC's 2014 membership drive will focus on is the east of Adelaide, with particular attention paid to the greater Norwood region.
A market-priced season package focused on bringing fans to Adelaide Oval will be on offer.

You went to Norwood High LR- small world. ;)

Hey PMP - we should form a Union - The Six-In-A-Row Gang, restricted to ex-Norwood High types from the 1950s/1960s.

Reborn Objective: Seven In A Row Or More...

Four members so far: Rexie, Dobie, your goodself, my old self...
Any more out there?

As for growing up in Evandale, I'd mention it was Morris Street... if I wasn't out on parole.

Morris Street - I wasn't too far away in Frederick St.

Like the looks of the gang that's forming. And there may be more of us out there.
 
I finally caught up with an Aussie movie made in 1978, Weekend of Shadows.

Starring John Waters, Bill Hunter, Bryan Brown, Melissa Jaffer, Les Dayman, Don Barker, Graham Rouse & Wyn Roberts. All well known Aussie actors.

It deserves a DVD release
 
I didn't think they manufactured good ones anymore?

Why make good ones when there's plenty of idiots who fork over a premium for duds with a logo embossed on them.
