Giant Rubber Duck Ini Sydney Harbour

[albaqwerty]

apparently it's a dress rehearsal for something.
Twas on the news this morning when they'll be transforming it into a giant bath apparently.

Why, oh why, did I think of gness?

[emmie]

bet it needs it's eider down.

Well, given the state of their cricket team, a duck icon is most apropos for the Aussies.

[jno]

their cricket team is doing extremely well lately.

[albaqwerty]

Eider bet that it would sink.
5-1.

...they're practicing in the nets from the quack of dawn..

[emmie]

i'll take some of that, with hoisin sauce...

[albaqwerty]

I'd love to see the size of the loofah.

[humbersloop]

reduckulously large

[Nibble]

you'd be quackers to use it

[albaqwerty]

lol sloopy, I like that!!

How about the size of the back-scrubber? A flannel?

What else is in one's bath? ( I say one, cos if I say your folk might start wondering!)

[DTCwordfan]

wait til the boys get at them, jno......New Zealand first I believe.

[DTCwordfan]

boats and crocs perhaps....

[albaqwerty]

I keep trying to understand crocket, but when the commentator says things like, 'they can win with one wicket left' I'm just flummoxed.
If a team is out on 365, all out, and the other team is 305 with one wicket left, my brain hurts......
(for example)

Dicky, you'd need to leave your tantalus at home though :-D x

Reminds me of one of my fav duck stories:

A (giant) duck walks into a Sydney bar. He looks like the happiest duck in the world.

The bartender asks, "Why are you so happy today?"

The duck replies, "I've been playing in puddles all day."

The duck proceeds to order a beer and enjoy it at the bar. A little while later another duck walks in the bar. He looks like the second happiest duck in the world.

The bartender asks, "Why are you so happy today?"

The duck gives the bartender the same answer, "I've been playing in puddles all day."

This duck also orders a beer and enjoys it at the bar. A third duck enters the bar, the total opposite of the first two ducks. The new duck looks like the saddest duck in the world.

The bartender asks the duck, "What's wrong with you?"

The duck replies, "My name is Puddles and I've had a terrible day."

Believe it or not I haven't broken into the tantalus. I was going to, but then the AB abstinence brigade started beating the drum. So I am sticking with the Crystal Meth and Hashish!! ;:=})

I suppose a duck would be out of the question?
