Bloody Leo

This happened when Bloody Leo was a younger man, single in fact, living at home.  He and Paddy were in a bar getting slightly and nicely. Suddenly Bloody Leo throws up all over himself. He says, “Oh no. Mum will bloody kill me. I‘ve spewed all over the good jumper with the reindeer and the squirrels that she just knitted for me”
Paddy says, “Don’t worry, I did the same thing just the other day. Just tuck a $20 note in your top pocket and tell her that someone threw up on you and gave you $20 for the dry cleaning bill.  She washes it, keeps the twenty and you are home free.” So they stay for another couple of hours and get even more pissed.
Eventually they stagger off in their different directions and on arrival home, Bloody Leos mum starts to give him a hard time, “You stink of booze and you’ve puked all over yourself, my god you’re disgusting.” Speaking very carefully so as not to slur his words, he says, “Wait. It’s not what you think. I only had one drink, but this man got sick on me – he’d obviously had one too many or else he couldn’t hold his liquor. He was very sorry and he gave me $20 for the cleaning bill. If you don’t believe me, look in my top pocket.”
She looks in his top pocket and says, “But there’s $40 here.”

He says, “Ah, yes but he shit in me trousers too”.

Good Bastards Rugby World Cup

20th 21st 22nd September 2002

QE11 Stadium

CHRISTCHURCH

In just 6 weeks the inaugural Good Bastards world Cup will be held.

This story from stuff.co.nz

Rugby: Hard case Coasters plan NZ Rugby World Cup

09 August 2002

New Zealand may have lost sub-hosting rights to next year's Rugby World Cup but a group of Good Bastards have come up with an alternative.

Good Bastards has its origins on the West Coast and has been gathering support around New Zealand through its Good Bastards beer, books and website. They even have Good Bastards Day and have now added the Good Bastards rugby World Cup to their list of activities.

It's the brainchild of Good Bastards founder and head honcho Paddy Sweeney, who has recruited Neil Blanchfield's Great Events company to promote the event, scheduled to take place at QE2 Park stadium in Christchurch on September 21 and 22.

Blanchfield's company ran the World Golden Oldies event in Christchurch, the recent World Masters Games and the World Fireman's Games. The rugby World Cup will have three grades, open, women and Good Bastards for those over 40 years.

Participants will receive various memorabilia, including a copy of Sweeney's soon to be released book It's a Bloody Try, Ya Useless Bastard, a definitive guide to country rugby comprising a series of stories deemed to be original West Coast rugby legends.

Sweeney said the September tournament would be "quite a social occasion". It would be an annual event and was expected to grow and eventually involve teams from overseas.

Good Bastards is also sponsoring the Good Bastards Rugby Chicks tournament in Westport this weekend, an inaugural event which has attracted teams from throughout the South Island. A feature of the weekend is the Good Bastards pub crawl.

The Good Bastards organisation started off with Sweeney and a bunch of mates going whitebaiting on the West Coast. The Good Bastards Day followed and is now held on Melbourne Cup day at the Southland Hotel in Hokitika.

Good Bastards- Rugby Chicks Tournament

 

 The Inaugural Good Bastards Rugby Chicks Tournament was a great Success.  It was held last weekend and for those that weren’t there, well …. They missed it.

With the emphasis on enjoyment all participating teams played hard and partied even harder.

Christchurch University showed their superiority with numerous Canterbury reps along with one or two Black Ferns winning their games against both the Good Bastards Invitation team and Nelson.

Waitohi from Picton narrowly went down against Nelson and ground out a tough 22 - 22 draw against the Good Bastards Invitation team. Full credit to Waitohi who broke the record for the longest trip between Blenheim and Westport of 7 hours and then be able to play as hard as they did.

Player of the tournament went to Joanna Barrena who also represented the Spanish Womens team at the World Cup this year in Spain.

Sponge - Universities player who slept in and didn’t make the rugby but travelled 4 hours just for the pub crawl.

We were led on the Pub-crawl by two Scottish bag pipers wearing nothing but their smiles under their kilts.

Westport came alight with close to 100 women rugby players creating carnage through town going from Pub to Pub.

Copious amounts of Good Bastards beer was consumed and all teams have already entered for next years competition - a definite sign of a successful event

Naturally the biggest success was the Good Bastards Pub Crawl with a copious amount of Good Bastards Beer being enjoyed.

One Helluva Lot of Sex
Now check this out.  Its how the population of the world is growing.  A bit scary when you think about it, all the sex that is going on to make all this happen.

Wife Wanted
A bloke I know inserted an 'ad' in the classified: "Wife wanted". Next day he received a hundred letters. They all said the same thing: "You can have mine."

 

 

Bloody Leo and Ross Nichol
Bloody Leo was skiting, (again) about how highly his wife thought of him.
"My Missus, she thinks so much of me that she won't let me do any work around the house. It's incredible."
Ross Nichol says, "That's nothing. My wife thinks I'm God."
"She thinks you're God? What makes you say that?"
"Easy. Every night she places a burnt offering before me."

Hyndsie The Suit Salesman
What not many folk know is that Hyndsie use to sell suits before he started mixing concrete.  Here is an exert from our Good Bastards Archives from back in that ancient era.

When the store manager returned from lunch, he noticed Hyndsie hand was bandaged, but before he could ask about the bandage, Hyndsie said he had some very good news for him. "Guess what, sir?" he says.  "I finally sold that terrible ugly suit we've had for so long!"
"Do you mean that repulsive pink-and-blue double-breasted bastard of a thing?!" the manager asked.
"That's the one!" replies Hyndsie.
"That's great!" the manager cried, "I thought we'd never get rid of that monstrosity bastard of a thing! That had to be the ugliest suit we've ever had! But tell me, why is your hand bandaged?"
"Oh, that" Hyndsie replied. "After I sold the guy that suit, his seeing-eye dog bit me."

(When it comes to bets Hyndsie thinks I’m a bit blind.)

Peter Bolton’s Quit Smoking Plan
Bolts went to his doctor, seeking help for his terrible addiction to cigars. The doctor was quite familiar with his very compulsive patient, so recommended an unusual and quite drastic form of aversion therapy. "When you go to bed tonight, take one of your cigars, unwrap it, and stick it completely up your arse. Then remove it, rewrap it, and place it back with all the others, in such a fashion so as you can't tell which one it is. The aversion is obvious, you won't dare smoke any of them, not knowing which is the treated cigar."
"Thanks doc, I'll try it." And he did. But three weeks later he came back and saw the doctor again.
"What? My recommendation didn't work? It was supposed to be effective even in the most addictive of cases, such as yours is!" answered the doctor.
"Well, it kind of worked, doc. At least I was able to transfer my addiction," replied Pete.
"What is that supposed to mean?" demanded the doctor.
"Well, I don't smoke cigars anymore, but now I can't go to sleep at night unless I have a cigar shoved up my arse." (Teach ya to call my jokes corny ya bastard, hahahahah)

 

Overhead at the Pub
"My girlfriend is such a cheat and a liar. I've been going with her almost a year now, and I never would have known she was married until my wife mentioned it just the other day."

How to get rid of your wife
A man goes to his doctor for his annual physical complaining of all kinds of mysterious ailments -- lack of sleep, no drive, very little appetite, nervous, etc.

After a complete exam, the doctor can find nothing physically wrong and suspects the man is suffering from depression. The two had been friends for many years, so the doctor did not hesitate to ask the man about his personal life.

"Well, if you must know," said the patient, "I cannot stand my wife. She's made my life unbearable. I fantasize all the time about killing that damn witch. In fact, if you are truly my friend, you'll give me some kind of untraceable poison to give her, so I may end my misery."

The doctor explained that not only was that illegal, it would in fact, violate his oath to save lives. He said, "Besides, you'll get life in prison yourself, at best. I'll tell ya what though, I can give you this powerful aphrodisiac to slip into her coffee. You can then 'love her to death'. No jury in the world is going to convict a man for loving his wife too much. She'll be gone in a month at best."

The man blessed the doctor, went home and started putting the love elixir in his wife's coffee the very next morning.

Three weeks later, the doctor hasn't heard a word from his friend, and becomes concerned. After office hours, he stops by his friend's house to see if all is well.

He finds his friend sitting on the sun deck, wrapped in a blanket, even though it's a warm Spring day. The man's face was gaunt and pale, he'd lost Lord knows how much
weight, and looked terrible.

The doctor asked, "What the Hell happened ???"

The man said, "I followed your advice to the letter. That woman and I made love like a pair of crazed rabbits, day and nite." Then, he chuckled, causing a terrible wheeze.

Just then the wife appeared from inside the house. All slim and trim and dressed in tennis clothes; smiling, she said she was off for a few sets of tennis.

As she leaped into her new sports car, her husband cackled and said to the doctor, "Look at that dumb crazy bitch. She hasn't a lick of sense. If she only knew she has less than a week to live she wouldn't be so God damn frisky."

Pat Condon Reckons
When it comes to worry I’ve heard it all. Some bastard reckoned that worry is the interest paid before we even know if we owe any thing. Others say stress occurs because some people don’t know how to worry without getting upset. Some say patience is the answer. Patience my arse, I’m going to kill someone. And on a final note; you can go and get rooted the lot of yas, I haven’t got enough brains to worry.

To keep potatoes from budding, place an apple in the bag with the potatoes.
 #2 The Good Bitches way
Buy packet mashed potato mix and keep it in the cupboard for up to a year.

 #3 The Womens Weekly Way
When a cake recipe calls for flouring the baking tin, use a bit of the dry cake mix instead and there won't be any white mess on the outside of the cake.

The Supermarket sell cakes. They even do decorated versions.

 #4 The Womens Weekly Way
If you accidentally over-salt a dish while it's still cooking, drop in
a potato slice.

If you over salt a dish while you are cooking, that's tough shit.  Please recite with me the Real Women's motto: "I made it and you will eat it and I don't care how bad it tastes."

Wrap celery in aluminium foil when putting in the refrigerator and it will keep for weeks.
 #5 The Good Bitches way
It could keep forever. I don't eat it.

Some of the bastards teach Solicitors so no more needs to be said really. Nick and Rog are at the forefront along with Good Bastards in sending these bloody aliens back to the asylums they have escaped from.

Getting back to these two forefront campaigners here are the profiles of these Good Bastards work it out for yourself, they are no different to you and me.

Save the Secrets from Fontera

A compelling drama starring

Bert McMullen

Malc Patterson

Bloody Leo

Hughie Little

Harry Collet

Ross Hurley

Evan Birchfield

plus a caste of  a thousand Good Bastards and how they saved secrets that Fontera just don’t have.

 

A truly magnificent story of bravery, fearlessness courage and determination. It could even leave a tear in your eye ……

One dark night outside a small well known and highly successful town, a fire started inside the Milk Powder Factory and before you could snap your fingers it exploded into flames and the alarm went out to the volunteer fire brigade and Good Bastards from miles around who promptly sprung into action.

When these Good Bastard volunteer fire-fighters appeared on the scene, the factory boss Hughie Little and Malc Patterson, one of the directors, rushed up to Bert McMullen (this happened last year) the fire chief and said, “All of our secret formulas that have enabled us to make Fontera look like a gaggle of geese with their dicks cut off, are in the vault in the centre of the plant. They must be saved or quite frankly we are frigged like a flogged floppy disc on the 31st of February. We will give $50,000 to the local brigade if you can bring them out intact.”

“That’s right” scowled Bloody Leo the head chemist.  How you have a chemist for your head remains a mystery to this day.

Bert ordered his men to strengthen their attack on the blaze. After two hours of fighting the Kanerie Fire Brigade were called in to help.   With Bells clanging and cars racing Harry Collet and his boys are soon on the scene ready willing and able to do what had to done to save the secrets.

By this time Hughie, Malc and Bloody Leo are really hitting the panic button.  So they offer Harry and his band of merry men $100,000 if they can bring out the company’s secret files. Bert boys were getting toasted up like spuds on a stick down at the barbeque on the beach after the Sands Dunes Classic and need to be revived with 50 or 60 bottles of Good Bastards beer each.

In go Harry and his team like dogs chasing a possum into a dry culvert.

The flames were getting so hot they were melting the stainless steel tanks which were disappearing like pavlovas at Whitebaiters ball. The smell of burnt milk was dominating the air like a rancid bucket of puss boiling its guts out.

There they were all there, hair burnt off their bodies and their clothes smouldering as they gallantly meet the intense heat with sheer determination seldom found in any man and only a few million women.  They all looked a bit like they had just come through a Nuclear attach launched by Saddam who is insane.

Bloody Leo is off on the cell phone ringing for more reinforcements. He is glad he wore his brown corduroy jocks but really pissed off he hadn’t taken a copy of the secrets and stored them elsewhere.

He knew that if the secrets were not recovered Fontera might have a slim show of not becoming one of New Zealand's greatest corporate stuffs up since Rutherford gave the Atom bomb formula to the yanks for two Ford Edsils and turned down a half share in a backyard operation called Honda from the Japs.

The drama is building, the secrets look like they are gone and the massive advantage that the Westland Dairy had over the mugs that run Fontera looks like being nothing more than a whisper of smoke being propelled into the air by the back draught being generated by the fierce fatal fury of the fancy well fanned furnace like inferno. (say that bastard three times fast when your pissed)

Then in the distance, another long siren was heard as another fire truck came into sight. It was the local volunteer fire brigade from Ross. Bloody Leo being a Ross Boy called them in as a last ditch effort to save his already fried bacon.

Ross Hurley was standing defiantly but demurely on the running board, his fist thrust in the air and yelling something akin to what George Custer must have said as he fought the battle of Wounded Thyroid.  Evan Birchfield was at the wheel of this mighty red machine and he had a steely-eyed look of determination that had only ever been seen before in the eyes of Henry Fonda as he steered his centurion tank to an un-winnable scrap at Bastogne in the Battle of the Bulge and picked up an Oscar for his magnificent victory.

To everyone’s amazement, the little red fire engine raced passed everyone and drove straight into the middle of the inferno and was quickly engulfed in the flames. 

Outside, the other firemen watched as the Gold Miners, now fearless fire fighters, jumped off their rig right in the middle of the blaze and began to fight the fire with a fervour and pitch the like of which had never been seen before.

Within an amazingly short period of time Ross Hurley and his Great Group of Gritty Gold Miners had extinguished the fire and saved the secret formulas.

The grateful Milk Powder Team joyfully announced that for such a super-human feat he was upping the reward to $200,000 and walked over to personally thank each of the brave Gold Miner fire fighters.

Paul Madgwick rushed in after capturing some great photos and sensing a scoop asked! “What are you going to do with all that money?”

”Well” said Evan Birchfield the driver of the fire tender, “the first thing we are going to do is fix the bloody brakes on the damn truck!”

An Old Good Bastard Fisherman/Yachty
An old retired Fisherman/Yachty puts on his old cap and goes down to the Greymouth wharf once more for old times sake.

He hires a prostitute and takes her up to a room in a close by pub.

He’s going at it as best as he can for a guy his age.

He asks, “How am I doing?”

The prostitute replies, “Well Capt’n, you’re doing about three knots.”

”Three knots?” he replies, “What’s that supposed to mean?”

She says, “You’re knot hard, you’re knot in and you’re knot getting your
money back!”

It doesn’t say that it was about you Kelly.

 

We have an announcement coming up that is going to knock ya socks right off. 

We are coming up to our one year anniversary on the web.  Good Bastards has been going for a bloody decade but the site will hit one year old on 8th of October 2002.

To mark the occasion we are going to announce some stuff that will have chomping at the bit to be part of.

Now I can’t tell you too much at this stage, but I will tell you this:  We are going to do a takeover.

That’s right a takeover.

If you guessed for a thousand years you will never guess what it is.

If you think you know what it might be, send in your guess; send in a dozen, a hundred, doesn’t bloody matter, you wont get it. takeoverguess@goodbastards.com

If some bastard gets it, we will give ya something worthwhile.  Not much point in saying what as no bastards going to get it. Did I already say that?

Suffice it to say week 53 will be bigger than Gods Jocks.  It is likely to piss a few people off and I sure as shit won’t be one of them.

Little Paddy
Little Paddy was in the classroom on a Friday afternoon, and the teacher had a game for the kids.
"Okay class. Now I'm going to say a famous quote, and the first person tell me who said that quote, can have Monday off" said the teacher.
"To be, or not to be. That is the question," spoke the teacher.
Little Din Don Chow at the front of the class called out,  "Shakespeare!"
"Well done!" said the teacher. "You can have Monday off".

"No thank you miss. I am of Vietnamese origin and it is in our culture to study as hard as we can, so I will be here on Monday studying hard," said little Din Don Chow.
"Okay," said the teacher. The next quote is - "I HAD A DREAM!".
Little Fri Sum Kat also at the front yelled out "Martin Luther King!"
"Well done!" said the teacher. "You can have Monday off!"
"No thank you miss. I am of Chinese origin and we also don't take time off school. Education is everything to us, so I will be in on Monday studying hard too," said little Fri Sum Kat.
"Okay," said the teacher.

Then she heard a voice from the back of the classroom, "F&*^%g Asians!"
"Who said that?" yelled the teacher in an angry tone.
"Winston Peters & Pauline Hansen, take ya pick!" yelled little Paddy. "See ya Tuesday

Gidday you Good Bastards.

Don’t get stranded on a desert Island

Five men are stranded on a tropical island. The only female around is a gorilla on the other end of the island. After one whole month the guys are all sitting around when Garry stands up and says, "I'm so horny, I can't take it anymore!"
So he grabs a bag and storms off to the other side of the island with his pals right behind him. They catch the gorilla. Each guy grabs an arm or leg and Garry puts the bag over the gorilla's head. He climbs on top of the gorilla and begins to do the nasty. The gorilla fights and struggles and finally gets an arm free and she wraps it around Garry's back. Then she gets both feet free and wraps them around Garry's waist. She gets her other arm free and grabs on to his hips and starts pulling him into her harder and harder.
Garry yells to his buddies, "Get it off! Get it off!
They shout, "You're on top, we can't get her off of you."
Garry says, "No, I mean the bag, I want to kiss the her!"

Parking Tickets

I went into town the other day. I was only in this place for about 10 minutes, and when I came out there was a Parking Warden writing a parking ticket. So I went up to him and said, "Come on, mate, how about giving a guy a break?"
He ignored me and continued writing the ticket. So I called him a nazi. He glared at me and started writing another ticket for having bald tires! So I called him a piece horse shit. He finished the second ticket and put it on the car with the first... then started writing a third ticket for expired warrent! This went on for about 20 minutes. The more I abused him, the more tickets he wrote. I didn't give a shit--my car was parked around the corner.

Pakistani Airforce

Pakistan just got their new Chinese fighter planes and sent a squadron of pilots there for training.
"Ok, this one is easy to fly", said the Chinese trainer, "even you fools should be able to operate it! You press this button to go up, this one to go left and this one for turning right!"
"But how do we come down?" asked Capt. Arfath Pasha.
"Oh," said the Chinese "leave that to the Indian Air Force!"

Love your work... can't wait for you to open your pub Paddy!

Last word from Paddy
Its as dry as a bucket of dust here in Queensland.  Hasn’t rained for yonks.  There was a bloke out west who had never ever seen rain.  Forty two years old he was.  Anyways he was walking along the dusky trail and a drop of rain fell out of the sky and hit him fair between the eyes.  Knocked him clean out and took three buckets of sand to bring him around.

The Hinze Dam, remember Rus! Well its down to 46% full and we are fast running out.  Hooter went down to the council to tell them how to fix the problem, but the know all yuppie bastards wouldn’t listen.

Hoot recons it’s the sheilas that are causing the problem.  They are washing and showering their bums and tits and fannies all the time.  Most times they’ve never been used in-between the wash’s.

Look, Hoot told these councillor bastards, a bloke can go without a wash for up to a year, why can’t a Shelia!  Maybe even two or three if need be.

A dead serious bloke doesn’t wear jocks, so why should bloody sheilas!

Shelia’s are washing their jocks and boulder holders every day, abso-bloody-lutely a bloody waste.  Let it all hang out, great scenery and would cheer up all the dull bastards out there. That’s what Hoot told em.

Think about this, the old Hooter told them.  All that water getting flushed down the dunny, another abso-bloody-lutely bloody waste.  Lets get back to the long drop, every bastards got room for one.  And it would give all these long hair unemployed gits a job digging them.  With a bit of luck, some of the more rarer bread of unemployed might have a cave in and we could even save money on the burial.

Holy water was another thing he mentioned.  Why not have Holy Sand, Who’d give a shit.  God would probably give you a Guernsey for your efforts.

Dishes! don’t need em, eat out of the tin and drink straight from the bottle.  Nothin to wash.

Anyway, there are a few of the ways Hooter reckons we can solve the drought problem.

Have you got any others?

Until next week, you keep smiling and remember while you’re laughing, nothing is bad.  So laughter is the answer to all the crook things that happen.
