The love of field and coppice
Of green and shaded lanes,
Of ordered woods and gardens
Is running in your veins.
Strong love of grey-blue distance,
Brown streams and soft, dim skies
I know, but cannot share it,
My love is otherwise.

I love a sunburnt country,
A land of sweeping plains,
Of ragged mountain ranges,
Of droughts and flooding rains.
I love her far horizons,
I love her jewel-sea,
Her beauty and her terror
The wide brown land for me!

No. It was a curiosity, but something put me off about it. I already have Foxtel/NBA/Premier League, so anything else is just taking the piss.

Not skating, curling

I once had a brilliant drunken pub idea. I was drinking with my mates and I proposed that we all take up curling. Bear with me.

You see, I figured that Australia was severely lacking in Winter Olympics representation and definitely had a lacklustre curling scene. So, if we started playing it, we had a decent chance of representing Australia at the sport. I mean, who the fuck plays curling here? You pitch, you sweep. Easy peasy. I thought, with a bit of effort, we could represent Australia and slip into the Olympics, Cool Runnings style.

My ultimate goal was to get into that Olympic village. Wakka wakka wow wow (porn music).

I don’t think my friends took me serious, but I was deadly serious.

The only names I know from that are Hilltop Hoods and Billie Eilish.

Hilltop Hoods because they’re from my hood and Billie Eilish because I see her name here or there on the internet and when I saw her picture, I thought “my God, she’s ugly”. Stuck with me ever since.

In lieu of an Australian Open or Tennis thread, I’ll use this one.

Nick “The Dick” Kyrgios is having a good battle with Rafael Nadal right now.

He has so much talent. Imagine if he wasn’t such a knob.

NRL season starts soonish, scopey.

My music collection cuts off at about 2005-2006, I reckon. Have not listened to any newer music since. I’m happy as a lark and better off for it. Today’s music sucks a thousand balls.

The Beatles are still appreciated today, and for decades to come.
We would be better off if today's crap was forgotten already.

Exactly. To be honest, I probably bought a random album here or there post 2006, but only because they were from fave bands of mine. Most remain unopened (yes, they were CDs, lol).

People often snarkily try to reply “today’s music sucks? That’s what everybody says eventually. You’re just getting old.”

And I say “Fuck YOU!” Today’s music really, REALLY sucks. It has no fucking rhythm or beat and the lyrics are infantile. It’s like listening to the mind of a schizophrenic. It has no soul. It’s just repetitive, mindless rubbish.

Almost everything that hits it big now is absolute trash. I had people trying to get me to dig that song by that black American actor that calls himself “Little something”. I laughed my arse off. They thought it was so poignant and I’m like “this shit doesn’t know what it wants to be. It’s spastic. The beat’s shit. If you can call it a beat. The melody is shit. I used to crap out better songs when I was playing guitar and recording onto my shitty PC in my bedroom, in my mum’s house, when I was 18.”

FAKE EDIT: Little Gambino. That’s the idiot. Guttertrash music masquerading as important art.

I don't mind some new music, but it's usually just a random dance track that could have been released in the 90s anyway.

Also new things by old acts like Depeche Mode, Duran Duran, New Order etc., etc.

I only really know 2 of his songs. This Is America, which was shit, and Redbone, where he sounds like a girl trying to sound like Prince.
