Text Box: OLD 55 Hello all and what an exciting 5 weeks we have with the top five to go down to the last round in the seniors. There has been many laughable moments so i thought it was about time i started earning my 100k retainer and let my rather large fan base share in my happiness. First up was in the twos game against ROC when after about 5 mins my good self was treating the footy like a yo-yo i just kept giving it off and it just kept coming back which lead my opponent to ask have i played senior footy before, to which i replied yes son,273 games to be precise which one would you like to hear about. He said are you fair dinkum, my reply i certainly am son. He then said let my jumper go, OK i said you can buy me a beer after the game i will fill you in then,he just ran off looking a little pale muttering your off ya head. I don't know today's youth no respect. Another laugh was after the Tooradin game a few of the boys decided we would have a good soak in the spa with a couple of beers. First mistake was after a couple of beers or 3 Stuey and my good self ordered a couple of ouzos, with that the Auskick kids came in with their parents so that was not a good time to be jumping out of the spa in my birthday suite, so more drinks all round. As the kids left the boys started to abort ship so i had the spa one out and as an ageing warrior the body was enjoying the warm water and the jets on my sore muscles was devine. So i closed my eyes for what must have been 10 seconds when Bully and the boys started coming in, my first thought was SHIT Steve Henwood wont be overly impressed. Just as i was about to make my bolt to the showers in came Steve so i thought to late Mottman you now have to stand your ground back to the wall stuff you against the world come out swinging son defend your honour don't back down for one second. When Steve spotted me i just kept eye contact at all times and made out i was listening to his every word occasionally noddy my head as if i agreed with everything he was saying the truth being i was in my own little but sometime disturbing world due to the warm spa and beverage, but i believe i pulled it of well with Steve saying to me later in the social rooms that i make that a one off, i said no probs coach im drinking sterling,order was restored.The best i have saved for last,Andy[rowdys brother]Downe and Matt[the sparky who if plays his cards right can install my downlights]Pearson went to THAILAND for an enjoyable holiday a few weeks back. Andy a loveable single guy hits the town and is having a ball till he finds out the first two lovelys he has kissed where born with the same body parts not to be out done when he finally hooks up with the opposite sex on the other side of the world the sometime confused and no top soldier pulls himself a chick from Berwick, who after a little discussion finds out she is a regular at the Blitz nightclub. Unless you were going for the culture experience, there's a few grand down the shitter old boy. Until next time my loyal followers i will leave you with some words of wisdom, Remember its only a lie, if you believe it to be.                                                                                                 YOURS TRULY,  MOTTY 55
