  1. Not a lot of taste in the meat any more. Home raised are better. Wild beats them too
  2. Too late. Aldi already got them
  3. 24 years ago I used to work growing the seedlings for all the Vietnamese share farmers there. I would seed with the boss, then when they germinated spend my week picking out doubles and triples etc replanting them in new trays or missed cells. When you have an order from one share farmer for 1 millions seedlings you know they are farming on a huge scale.
  4. One of my mates found a black powder recipient in a book and we made it and fireworks from it, we learnt how to burn wood with out a flame to get one ingredient, like an old fashion charcoal pit. The local chemist used to ask what we were up to every time we bought some of the ingredients. “School experiment” usually sufficed. Tightly rolled up paper can make a bit of a bang we found.
  5. try the pacific HWY, one of our major routes between state capitals, signal is on, off all the way. and yet you can see towers-so good line of sight and have no service. Now Cel-fi has released a model specifically for 5G after i have 2 of the bloody things that work best on boosting the 3G signal.
  6. Maybe Larry was a clam, Happy as a clam.
  7. put one in the workshop to save space and water. Bloody expensive compared to a normal cistern though around $1600 all up on trade price
  8. Maybe Scotty cam has a Chinese cousin😂 probably the same amount of defects as the block, except you probably disappear if you report them.
  9. Has anyone else wondered about our single use plastic bag ban, we now pay for a paper bag that can only hold a pack of crisps or it tears open, when they get home they are filled with rubbish and tossed, because they barely make the one trip. The weight of the bags must have increased tenfold( like per 1000 etc), so shipping them around the globe must cost a small fortune (books are heavy enough to move in a box) At least those grey woolworth's plastic bags went in a holder or another bag to be reused as rubbish bags, carrying stuff around to places, We didnt buy garbage bags for years, they stacked in the wheelie bin easy and went out every day so no odours. Now the ones we get tear before you get them out of the bin, so bloody hopeless. Paper production is fairly labour and process intensive and if you believe the lefties, Toxic, I remember all the paper mills in Tassie's north closing and leaving a lot of people out of work. And to top it off, everything like the meat trays mentioned above are single use due to what the contents are-raw meat, chicken etc.
  10. I agree, easier to fix with a cable tie or two, a bit harder to expand them.
  11. I feel bad with 20kg more on me than I should. Some of the people on tv shows like 1000lb sisters are being enabled, they don’t walk or drive to the junk food shops. They can barely move in a modified house.
  12. Now my commute is 20metres approx (living at my workshop), I am saving about $30 a week on coffee. I think I bought is as a habit more than anything whilst driving to work. That adds up over a year.
  13. Be like all day jerky, I don’t think anyone’s ever wore a set out.
  14. I have a wide and varied taste, just some of the older great ones are no longer with us or touring. On my list would have been Lynard Skynard, chuck Berry, and many others
  15. Always feel like that at concerts now, Def leopard, Jon Stevens, guns n roses, Richard Marx. All these old.people like the same.music, then realise I'm one of them😄

    Brain Teaser

    A cheese plate.
  17. Allan Jackson?
  18. Like Alone, whole production crew out there, probably munging on burgers and fries whilst the contestants are eating lizards and bugs etc.
  19. I often play chuck’s music, it is always a pick me up.
  20. Just realised of all the books I have read, I have never picked up Frankenstein, if I can find a copy I might just have a read of it. When I was 11, I got a copy of a tale of two city's for my birthday, back then I found it heavy going. I have been thinking of digging it up out of my library and having a crack at it again now I might understand it better.
  21. Yet Trump can run for president from jail if he gets anytime from his trials, how stuffed up I that.
  22. I have just got a coffee tree to plant to try this for myself, might even get a few more as I have read 1 to 2 kg Max beans a year per tree, and I have 5 to 10 cups a day. Will be interesting to compare home grown to bought when it happens.
  23. Could be Victorian, that stupid use left lane to turn right nearly killed me as a young driver. I Got of the FEERY, and drove north to go to NSW, I followed the arrows in the celica, pulled to the furthest left lane and turned right across 3 lanes both ways, had to floor it to not get smashed. Nobody warned me you have to wait for the lights to change the other way. Not a good start to the trip.🙄
  24. I've seen a lot of hyundai excels nealy tip over like on What's eating Gilbert grape or nearly wheels standing around here, especially on a Thursday.
  25. OME I think we need a grammar police inspection 😉
