This is the rubbish we have to put up with!

Today we were having a great time out our London bbq. Someone asked where does the history go back to re the rivalry between us and Carlton. I tried to find this posting I received from one of the Aussie Expat boards. Tonight I have found it. This is the rubbish we have to put up with!! Apologies to anyone who has seen it b4.




A Family of Collingwood supporters head out one Saturday morning to do
their Christmas shoplifting . While in Rebel Sports the son picks up a
Carlton footy jumper and says to his 10 year old sister, "I've decided to
become a Carlton supporter and I would like this for Christmas". His
sister, outraged by this, promptly whacks him round the head with her
carton of Winfields and says, "Go talk to Mum.
Off goes the little lad with the Carlton footy jumper in hand and finds
his mother. "Mum?" "Yes son?" "I've decided I'm going to be a Carlton
supporter and I would like this jumper for Christmas". The mother is outraged at
this and throws her moccasins and a full stubbie of VB at him, promptly whacks
him around the head and says, "lets go talk to your father".
Off they go to Pentridge during visiting hours with footy jumper in hand
and find bubba, his father.
"Dad?" "Yes son?" "I've decided I'm going to be a Carlton supporter and I
would like this jumper for Christmas". The father is outraged and promptly
whacks his son around the head with his fists and says, "No son of mine is
ever going to be seen in THAT", and then kicks him from one end of the
rec. room to the other for further good measure.
About half an hour later they're all back in the car and heading towards
home (Reservoir). The mother turns to her son and says "Son, I hope you've
learned something today?"
The son says, "Yes knackers I have." "Good son, what is it?" The son
replies, "I've only been a Carlton supporter for an hour and already I
hate you Collingwood pricks.

Well, I hadn't heard it. Lol.

Thanks for an early morning laugh, annewilo.

Oops, it's it's nearly 3 pm.! Oh well, cricket followers will understand.
