Nostalgia

The late Actor/Comedian Peter Sellers.
8th September 1925 - 24th July 1980


One of my fav scenes, from The Pink Panther Strikes Again, as Inspector Clouseau:


Clouseau: Does your dog bite?
Hotel Clerk: No.
Clouseau: [bowing down to pet the dog] Nice doggie.
[Dog barks and bites Clouseau in the hand]
Clouseau: I thought you said your dog did not bite!
Hotel Clerk: That is not my dog.

I was singing along to this in the car with my then 15 year old, who said, "The 70s must have been wild! Fancy singing about swimming with unicorns!"
Best misheard lyrics ever!!

Haha. A mate of mine's daughter has cerebral palsy. One day she was happily singing "All my luggage I will send to you".
Turns out the song was "All My Lovin'" by The Beatles.

One of the best movie lines of all time. Sellers was very funny.

We used to go down the street to the rich neighbours to check out the colour tv, it had a three button remote.
They had a pinball machine too. Actually they had two or three pinball machines.

Just before my time.
I used go with Nan to pickup Uncle BF at Granville pool room, upstairs. Sometimes she’d send me up to get him when she couldn’t find a close parking spot. Another time at the same place, Daddy BF had just got out, and instead of spending time with the fam he was up there winning the comp to get $$$ to get on, bcoz Nan wouldn’t give it to him. So she sent me up to get him, I think it was a guilt trip tactic, but it didn’t work he won the comp and was already high.
Pool comps were at the pub in my day. I like competitions pool/poker where other people get drunk and punt their money. It makes taking it so much easier. I haven’t played much pool in the last decade. I’d still strip ya at poker though.

Counting cards is not as hard as you think. But hard to implement while playing mathematically with multiple decks.
I just love playing cards, Nana BF would get out the cards or a board game after dinner. She also used to run poker nights. I grew up playing cards for money, Nan, uncle, etc. had no problem taking my pocket money, and when I ran out of money that’s it I was off the table. So I’d do chores, make coffee’s, sandwiches, or snacks for the adults still playing or even run out and mow the lawn, then jump back on the table.
