Wild Horse


Annika's flatmate Anna. A contender for wildest horse. Megan talked like Anna for about a week after we all went to Golden Plains together but I think it is wearing off. New edition please Rowie.

Thanks for looking after us at the festival and being so attentive Annika. It was ace.

I have been a fan of the Roff Report (which I always pronounce like the Colbert Report in my mind) for many a year, I am DELIGHTED to have finally made a guest appearance! I heart the Roffs!

I'm not a demanding man, and when it comes to women my only three requirements are a friendly demeanour, a love for doctor who, and that the words "Wild Horse" are tattooed across their knuckles.

Unfortunately this is apparently too much to ask for in Adelaide, so as of seeing this picture I have decided to move to Melbourne.

Anna ticks all of of those boxes! Not that I advocate the use of our family blog as an online dating forum...perhaps this should be a feature of your new website Rowan?

:) Annika

I must admit it seems, even for someone such as myself, unusual to see the words "family blog being used as an online dating forum."

Rowan, as Damian would say... "punching above your weight".

Now compliments aside- A new website? what is the address?

My tip is avoid taco's on a first date. Spaghetti is pretty tricky too.

Dear anonymous, you obviously need some insight into the life of a comic artist who moonlights as a financial economist by day. When I play tennis I'm the captain of div1. When I play soccer I'm the lone striker. When I have spare time I write poetry. When I see what humanity is becoming I weep. I have learnt how to count to ten in over five languages... yet for all my brilliance, for all my success, I have never learnt to love.

Now who's punching above their weight? Also, a new website? I can neither confirm or deny these allegations. Please direct all future questions to my 3 in-family lawyers.

Well, this is all very complimentary! Anonymous Roff has always been my favourite Roff.

Re: Punching above your weight -

I captained Mixed 28 to Victory when I was ten and Nicholas was eight; I have been self described as "an eagle of soccer"; I write poetry in my sleep

Although to be fair
It generally turns out
like thisssssszzzzzzzzz

I catch the tears of humanity, bottle them, and donate them to the thirsty;

and have seen a certain Hugh Grant vehicle once a year at Christmas with my family enough to know that "Love, Actually, is all around" [sic]

That said, I do love Doctor Who, and Wild Horse, and I've always thought that hyberbole is the single greatest thing in the history of the universe, so I guess I could be convinced.

Kind Regards,

Anna

wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Jake said...

These two sound perfect for each other. If Anna knows how to do a 'captain's salute' from a diving board I am convinced.

Anna may not know "the Salute", but as those who attened Grant's 60th will attest, she has certainly mastered "the Penguin"!

Rowan, that girl looks like trouble.

Haiku poetry? On the roff report?
Unbelievable! To see some culture
gracing these pages is fantastic! I
have been waiting so long...

Given this, I feel it is then only
right for me to put forward an
acrostic poem of my own. And to Kate:
Never fear! Having prior experience of
troublesome girls, I think I can handle it!

I've met the Marnock family and Anna is the LEAST unusual of them. Roff Christmas may never be the same again. So when's the wedding?
