What!!!

Cold sausges are made of pork and win, honestly save one next time you cook some, they will rock your world!
( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Wed 23 Dec 2009, 11:30, Reply)

I can't usually stop myself eating them while hot
but I do love having yesterdays sausages in a sandwich with some spicy chutney.

there is something about yesterday's sausages that is extra special

Most meat eaten the next day
is pretty damn good I find, even kebabs. Although you normally need to be pretty hungover to want to eat yesterdays kebab. But if you're in the right mindset they can be aweseome.

I'm not usually an eater of kebabs
so have never had one left over the next day
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Wed 23 Dec 2009, 11:35, Reply)

I can't imagine how this would be nice

Unless it's a proper shish kebab not and elephant's leg

Thanks for your support chaps

I feel this was teetering on the edge of a major diplomatic incident.

I was a bit concerned that BGB was acting like China
and trying to sabotage these negotiations.

Thank You Kind Sir...

But once it goes over 30c I start to suffer. I'm not good with the heat. Last year was a special kind of hell when it hit 46c and I had no aircon. On that day it was still over 35c at midnight - almost blood temperature. The next day the weather changed and a front came roaring in. Temperature dropped 15 degrees in 5 minutes.

But I'd rather have put up with heat than the consequences of that front coming in. You see, as it arrived it brought really strong winds in ahead of it. And 173 people died. Over here it's called Black Saturday....

Cheers

Don't forget the killer spiders.
Why would anyone live there?
( girlinthehole, Wed 23 Dec 2009, 11:17, Reply)

Spiders..

Only ever seen one killer spider and that was in this house, in a cupboard. I killed it to DEATH!!

But the big bastard snake that slither past my feet in the garden freaked me out. There's very few snakes in Melbourne and they're all poisonous. Next day, the weedkiller came out and I nuked all of the overgrown wild areas. No cover - no snakes.

But worse, far worse than spiders and snakes are the bastard bush flies. We don't get too many here in Melbourne but when they're around they drive me insane. Thank God they never come indoors.

Cheers

I loved the story about the man who was walking down, errrr, that road in the middle of Melbourne where all the shops are
I forget the name (Princess Street?), but he threw some rubbish into a dumpster and got bitten by a snake. He survived so it's funny.

People died of wind

Australia really is fucking lethal, even the wind is poisonous!

Damn you Zephyr, damn you to hell!
( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Wed 23 Dec 2009, 11:17, Reply)

I don't know.
I had really bad trapped wind once and thought I was going to die.

I'd be interested to experience that sort of crazy temperature drop
I seem to recall a similar tale from canada, but there it dropped from something like 20 degrees to minus 8.

ridiculous places.

As It Happens

We're due for a big drop in temperature tonight. Today was 36c, tomorrow max will be 24. And my barometer is dropping like a lead brick. (Proper old fashioned kind with a dial you have to tap. Best toy I ever bought.....)

The way to deal with dangerous winds like that is to follow a simple seven step procedure:
No. 1: Get a Wife
No. 2: Get a Child
No. 3: Have an inability to pass an open (or indeed closed) recepticle containing an alcoholic beverage.
No. 4: Become highly qualified in looking at things and then get even more qualified in hitting things with spanners and overcharging old ladies
No. 5: Build your own house becuase you're so amazing.
No. 6: Be right on the internet all the time. Even when you're not on the internet.
No. 7: You need to keep your fluid intake up at times like this, but, since the mrs is around, it might be best not to let her see you putting vodka in your water bottle, better to avoid arguments than upset her eh!?
