Well, having spent a couple of days away at a very agreeable location on the south coast of NSW...



You get back to the bus stop, and what's happened? Bloody trolley takeover!  :worried:

They were worried you might have been abducted by those UFOs.

Maybe the golf club and the figgy had the same electrician :D

Yes. It looks like Marvin's work.

Melbourne is in 5 day lockdown, but the Australian tennis open is going on. Funny watching it with nobody there, but they seem to have crowd sounds.

Not that it matters.... one of the women playing at the moment lets out a noise when she hits the ball that would drown a crowd out anyway  ::)

We've got the 6 Nations going on over here in empty stadiums. Normally, we are avid fans but we watched England v Scotland last weekend. Great game, but it had no soul without the crowds so we haven't watched any more.  :(

Cheers,

Chris

Hard to get a laugh around here at the moment.
This is Marvin.

Dunno if there are machines like this wherever you are (not the black vending machine, the yellow gambling machine on the left), but in a brain fart moment Bealman played it this afternoon.



Here's the result. A win..... not.


I put six bucks in, and won six bite sized bars. I'll savour those.... after all, they cost a dollar each!  ;D

They change that banner so often over there I can't remember if I've posted this already. What have we got today?

McWraps, salads and smoothies  :sick2:

Sending thoughts and prayers.

Perhaps there is an alternative explanation.  Given that 'Perseverence' has landed on Mars, this might have been the Martian equivalent landing on Earth.  The Martians are obviously dashed cunning people because they have disguised it as a shopping trolley, so that it blends into the NSW environment.  Look out for it on your travels, it might appear in all sorts of places, looking innocuous, but sending intelligence back to Mars about Life on Earth.  But, is it intelligent life?  The Martian scientists are at present attempting to work out why Earthlings pay three times as much for a selection of confectionary from a yellow machine as from the adjacent black machine.

Please watch out for the Martian Trolley Rover sitting behind you down the Bowlo as you enjoy a few swift 'alfs of VB.  It might try to pinch some of your VB for alien analysis.

Best wishes

...and we suspect that Marvin has already re-wired both the golf club and bowlo electricals!
