NYf aren’t a joke like they used to be.That’s a big haul. Good on yous fullas.
8.34’s right – NYf isn’t the joke it used to be, but it’s still only just above mobius. Not really worth entering, or winning. Sort of the Axis of the US. But well done anyway mojo, great result.
Jealousy issues much?
7.38? what kind of loser writes to sad-arsed advertising blogs at 7.38 a.m?
Sounds like the sort of comment HK would write.
8:47 PM – There’s a saying about a pot and a kettle that would fit perfectly right here.
