If you read this website without paying, then you suck. Maggie says so. Would I break into your house and steal your model plane set? Or your collection of Pumpkin Patch dolls? Of course I would’t.

Doesn’t dear old Uncle Vince look like a man who is keen on young lads? He smiles like shark. Vince used to take my mate Milton’s spinster aunty to mass and as his plus one at functions. He still believes it was just because Mr Curry didn’t want to get tied down to one woman. […]

Coppers running racing are not the answer. It’s not really their fault – you can’t turn a bulldog into a hound just […]
The Dazzler lives out his childhood dreams by spending an hour dressed up as Goofy Well I never thought I would see the day that the former halfback from Logan would take up playing and promoting the sport of polo. It just didn’t seem like his type of game. But pictures don’t lie, and here […]

Ever since the closure of Eagle Farm for reconstruction almost a decade ago now, the Doomben race track has been over-used, over-worked, and under-maintained, and it has caused a dramatic change to course proper.
