I feel a bit better now...as you can see it is comforting for me just holding one..

Now we understand the rules a bit more...Bring it On!!!

Aye. Was impressed when I got it going.

It'll be ocker judges next time we do one like this, so you might want to adapt your strategy. If you choose to believe roopy...

What's an ocker judge ?

Ocker is McFlurry language for Aussie.

Oh..

Ocker is an affectionate/mildly pejorative term for Australian males...

McFlurry is Goose language for McLaren Field.

I like Goose language better

Ocker actually means part Aboriginal.
Ironically, most people who call themselves ockers don't know that, and are usually red necked racists.

Do you still have a lot of racism towards Aboriginals Roopy ?....I always imagined Australia to be a very multicultural place to live, and that racism would be very low.

I thought they were actively warring amongst themselves, the abo's and the lebanons?

There's not much amongst younger people - but a lot of older people find it hard to let it go.

We have a fair number of Sudanese refugees at the moment, and for some reason they have a lot of conflict with Aboriginals - go no idea why.

Was the lebs problems 2/3 years ago? Time flies...

"People only see what they are prepared to see" (Emmerson)

It is often more difficult for older generations to see things differently, it usually takes a couple of generations to perceive things differently.

If you are talking about the cronulla riots then that was in 2005.

Cake is always a winner

justarugbyfan has cast his vote. It's tense, it's exciting...

The ockers have nicked a point!

[i=#0000FFSorry it's a little late, couldn't get internet connection last night.

I think the Newcastle one is slightly more tempting; they've stayed simple and not outdone it and included Australian and sport related foods.

Hull almost did it though; the website almost swayed me![/i

Not what I anticipated, but the judge's word is final. Wigan fan, innit, must have fancied the pie.

24 hours to get your votes in for the evictee Hull United. If the result of a tie, it'll will be quickest to answer a simple question on here who survives.

Not wrong there



Sorry Hull United you were very close to getting my vote. I'm sure you'll come back stronger next time and win it for the English

So is it a draw then? I'm confused.

yes, one to go from each team, how's the voting thingy work?

I think,(MR please correct me if I'm wrong) we vote via PM to MR. If it's a tie, then we simply choose the person we want to stay in the comp on here.

Here's what I put on their site (might mix the teams up in a couple of weeks, to breed a more convivial atmosphere.).

'So time for some backstabbing and recrimination. PM me your votes for who you want out. If it is a tie, it'll be quickest to answer a simple question on here, who gets to stay. Once you're off the team you can still vote on future evictions and offer advice, but you're out of the running. Until the resurrection round at least.'

It is a secret ballot, and the banished retain a vote, so lying through your teeth might be a good plan.

Not in this case!

Do you mean Aussie judges will be judging the next task? Not the same three (quite splendid) chaps as this round?
