Before you got on he'd give you an intense appraisal and pat you down a bit. He allowed himself a margin for error, I forget what it was. A family up the road had a hefty grown daughter among them and they pushed her forward to get on but she wouldn't. Her refusal became folklore.R.H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04639593801088008224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17391176.post-65146647722727206552011-09-30T10:28:19.253+10:002011-09-30T10:28:19.253+10:00River, it's a shame the ABC can't broadcas...River, it's a shame the ABC can't broadcast some of the show things for us who can't stand the reality. I, for one, would love an on the cakes and preserves with a judge telling us what they look for. Same with the sheepdogs and I don't even know if they have the grand parade anymore.<br />It could have been worse for the boys, I could have tied them to the pram with the whinging kid. He never stopped from the moment we walked in til he got home with an obscene amount of showbags.JahTehhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02007730071564639411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17391176.post-14757680678325201362011-09-29T22:45:48.838+10:002011-09-29T22:45:48.838+10:00I don't enjoy going to the show either.

I haven't been in years and don't plan on going again, ever. <br />I agree with Andrew, a safety harness for a toddler is so much better than having to carry the kid everywhere and they don't wander off into machinery or strange people's cars that way.Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17391176.post-73808443603914252642011-09-29T17:47:40.087+10:002011-09-29T17:47:40.087+10:00Well I thought so Andrew, but funny what kids reme...Well I thought so Andrew, but funny what kids remember. He didn't remember what a little bleeder he was and 37 years on I still can't get out of the habit of carrying a least 6 bandaids in my purse.<br /><br /><br />Elisabeth, it either started out raining and ended sunny or vice versa and we so looked forward to our one day holiday. School holidays hadn't been broken into four back then. And the ABC used to telecast all the sheep dog trials and the Garryowen. <br /><br />EC, a mad chase up the street by two staff caught him. <br />My first boyfriend took me for a ride on the MadMouse and kissed me in the train on the way home. We didn't last, he had blackheads in his ears which I hadn't noticed until he got up close in kissing range.JahTehhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02007730071564639411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17391176.post-50686484322650074442011-09-29T16:05:30.952+10:002011-09-29T16:05:30.952+10:00I am so so sad that the demo was cancelled.

I remember it always being cold and windy as well. But here in Melbourne I don't imagine they could ever get the dates right. It's all so unpredictable.<br /><br />This is such a fantastic post, rollicking through your mother's home and back in time to your children's experience of the show.

I can't see why. What better way to keep your child with you? I am sure I had to wear one at times, which might explain why.......ah, no, won't go there. A dog leash is a good substitute.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
