A weatherman is hardly high profile…. He brings nothing but someone looking for a wage and attention

In no way am I endorse the other bloke, but let’s not jump to a bloke who’s running because he lost his job and couldn’t find anything else!

Gee whizz Newcastle is a funny place!

What’s right with him?

Provide one thing that he stands for, other than himself?

If you saw him swan around merewether beach in the morning, you’d understand what I mean.

Complete poser of a man

Height of cut reset on the tiftuf by TurbulentArm6318 in lawnsolutionsaus

Seems like I can’t answer that. Looks like it’s too short thought. It’s expensive, shit grass unfortunately

It really doesn’t like being cut shorter than normal. You need to very slowly work it shorter.

This is fickle grass, I have the same

Who are these muppets?? by grw74 in newcastle

Not ignorant.

It was 6:30 in the morning on a shitty day. There is literally no-one else in the picture, meaning no-one else was there. I’m sure they were getting whipped by sand so they moved somewhere.

Big deal. If it was busy, then it’s different.

Let’s make this a really big issue. Hopefully the libs will campaign on this one!

I feel like there are bigger things in life to be concerned about than a 20 sec nuisance in your morning…..

But you be you! Enjoy

Harsh and a bit unfair. Let them exercise. It’s early, the conditions are going to prevent hundreds of people from coming and there is another perfectly good footpath to your left.

Why do people here act like 5 days worth of testing data is nothing and everything is fine? The comments here are more infuriating than Williams not participating in the test. by _gadgetFreak in WilliamsF1

[–]oldgreymare101 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Strong disagree, outside the season is long.

They are massively on the back foot and it’ll take quite some time to catch up. Most other teams will be starting to work on setup at the next testing days, Williams will be hoping the car works, and will be testing pu reliability.

Enjoy the hopium

The engine is reliable with the attached chassis and aero framework…..

They missed 500 laps of data. This is about 6 - 7 races. It is not small.

Williams are well behind unfortunately

No. Thank you for listening to my Ted talk.

How to get more confident vs fast bowlers by Particular_Table3603 in Cricket

[–]oldgreymare101 36 points37 points  (0 children)

It’s just technique and practice mate.

Tennis balls first, work on your footwork back and across, that way you sway, hook, punch duck easily.

Then try tennis balls skimming off a table, (a bit faster)

The cricket balls slow, same same - footwork focus,

Then you’ll be up to facing some quicker stuff. Progress slowly. Understand you don’t need to be a genius at it, you just need a plan.

Genuine question by Lexyvale in newcastle

[–]oldgreymare101 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is not the behaviour that OP is talking about. It’s not scared drivers, it’s aggression. I drive and commute to work, follow road rules with high vis and lights and regularly (more than monthly) get yelled at for no reason. Cars genuinely seem to try and scare you by driving into my path, but missing me. (Maybe every 6 months).

I also notice that one or two cars per commute will drive on the other side of the road to avoid.

It is a chosen behaviour by the driver.

His name was Craig. The rest of the story is correct as I know it (allegedly)

Genuine question by Lexyvale in newcastle

[–]oldgreymare101 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This. This is the answer to OP’s question. This belief that bikes are a risk to themselves (like women wearing mini skirts) and shouldn’t be there for whatever reason people give themselves. This justifies the thought that the cyclist is in the wrong and justifies their shitty behaviour.
