​ Who Are The Old Bastards?

---

We are an organisation based on fun, fellowship and joviality coupled with fund raising, founded back in 1968 by Leo Bradshaw MBE.

Our main purpose  is to raise funds for a variety of worthy charities across Australia with our  beneficiary the Children's Hospital at Westmead, in particular the Leo Bradshaw Research Laboratory as well as other Children's charities, the Royal Flying Doctor Service - community groups including primary and high schools - all these and more have been helped by the AOOB.
AOOB branches are the fundraising side of the organisation and their wonderful hardworking efforts include - raffles, barbecues, race days, quiz nights, even an annual car rally and other fun stuff - and from the fees generated by  Life Memberships to this unique organisation.
For a once only fee of  $20.00 and get you a  membership card together with a keyring badge  and the pleasure of knowing you've become part of something special.

We'd love to hear from Old Bastards - wherever you are in the world - please call our head office  Fridays only  between 8.30 am and 2.30 pm (Eastern Standard Time) on 0428 332 733 or email us at: aooboffice@gmail.com

 Membership Qualifications

---

1. Marital status of parents is irrelevant.
2. Age is irrelevant - it is sufficient to have been acclaimed at least once by friends as an Old Bastard.
3. Drinking habits must be hearty and jovial, whatever the drink of choice.
4. On encountering other OB's one must administer a hearty slap on the back, together with the cheerful greeting "Hello, you Old Bastard!"
5. Membership card or badge must be carried at all times. Failure to produce same when challenged by another OB incurs a penalty of one round of drinks

If you feel you can live up to these conditions and be known as a good Old Bastard visit our Membership page. $20.00 will get you Life Membership, a personalised card and a keyring badge.
