The Daly Cherrygraph

I’m so old, I remember our bread being home delivered in the back of a Holden panel van. The back of the van was full of loaves straight from the bakers oven. That was also in the days of the paper boy, milk deliveries in glass bottles and the dunny man.
I remember it being delivery by horse and cart ! and the ice man delivering great big Ice blocks for the ice-chest
 
luxury... I remember I had to grow and mill the wheat and make my own bread after walking 30 miles to get to the farm that only had 3 plants in it.
.... Luxury .... before breakfast, which was a mouthful of sawdust, we had to crawl 100 miles to collect water in a can with holes and get back with enough water for mother to wash down her pills
 
The Matty Johns Show is Fox League's version of The Footy Show. A low brow humour show hosted by boofheads, for boofheads where they occasionally they talk about the footy.

And in saying that I guess I'm one of the boofheads because I do watch it sometimes.
As a newly minted member of the old bastards 50’s club, what say you to the eshay man bag proudly worn by Tyrell May? Yay/Nay/ I couldn’t give a fu<k Wombat, get a fkn life man!

We would have killed for a whole mouthful of sawdust. We had to share a mouthful amongst 12 kids, and that was only when dad hadn’t drunk all his wages at the pub on Friday night.

Well.. I remember when we had no paper and we had to carve the 10 commandments in stone….. and if you did something wrong they didn’t put you in prison …. They crucified you!

Just sayin’

The young fella is wearing pink headgear this season, there's about 6 in his side alone. Others with the pink boots, Skins etc.
I just remember when anything but black boots was "odd"
Man Bag?! Isn't that a scrotum

I remember the bread was wrapped in wax paper & not in plastic bags like it is now.

For milk we had a cow. The bucket would have about 3” of warm water to wash the udder of the cow.
I would milk straight into the water to get a head start. Kids, eh.
 
We were a bit tight for money growing up in a single parent family, so rarely got to order lunch at the canteen. It was often Vogel multigrain bread from the freezer with butter and Vegemite… 🤮 But those occasions when we did get to put in the brown paper bag orders with the coins inside were special ☺️🙏
Yeah we were the same. It was real special to get a lunch order!!

I'm so old I remember when it was accepted to draft in a proper knuckleman from country footy or reserves for a game to take out any opposition player that has a handbag.

We had deliveries by draught horse and cart. A time when a handshake was enough and being captain an honour.
