Really, dahling, can't you stay on track? Hope you had a lovely weekend
Yes thanks Mame, a nice weekend.
Did you have a barbie over the weekend?
Since we're on S now, I'll start with that... yes, we had a lovely bbq with all kinds of Indonesian and Malaysian food. What did you do?
Took the village sports day by storm and won the tug of war, the caber tossing and hammer throwing contests.
Do you think men are crazy?
Catch you l8r tea time
Ummm, does anyone know what 'caber' tossing is?
Yes. I do Mame.
You take a tree and chop it down. A medium tree with a straight trunk. You saw out of it a, say, 12ft length. A long length as you will see.
That's a caber when it's been smoothed off a bit. A caber tosser is a bloke who tosses cabers. To toss a caber you get under a crane from which the caber is hanging and get comfortable with the end of the log cupped in your hands with your feet well apart and your knees bent. When the caber tosser says "ready" the helpers cut the caber loose from the crane and the caber tosser has it all to himself. He now, in order for him to make an authorised "toss", and judges watch that,has to throw the caber so that it does a somersault before landing. To do this he usually has to run a few steps to give added impetus, or stagger more like,and then with one mighty heave of his arms he attempts a "toss" which is like a home run. It's definitive.
In the authentic tradition it was carried out mud-smeared naked.
Then they all go off drinking and wenching.
Does that help?
PS. I presume you understand tog-of-wars and hammer throwing.
You know Spendius, you don't half give some excellent renditions at times!
Have you ever tossed a caber Spendi?
By the way you have made a real mess of this thread, Clary will see it and god help you then.

Very strange creature above me.
