Force is giving off major 'waste not-want not' vibes and I don't want to miss out on the zeitgeist. Could I please have the last two slices of someone's pizza, and coffee.

Give it time.

My bloke would have endorsed this - he got caught taking a wee after chopping some very hot chillies but had not washed his hands before taking that wee. His screams were impressive. The jerked chicken sounds delish.

Thanks!

Some bikkies and a cup of coffee please Bacon.

5/10 who cares about rugby in this town?

Wafting the perfume of crisp crackled pork belly skin over the aether to you.

Slices of pork belly in the air fryer - suitably marinated. Have worked out how to cook them and get the skin crispy. Tinfoil you are my friend in this endeavour.

A cup of tea and some toast and marmalade please. With a side order of a nice dry raincoat and a new umbrella.

Giant pez dispenser. Young people nowadays.

It's a portion of the Reeve's Tale from the Canterbury Tales by Chaucer. There's a repeat at the end with subtitles. Both the original and modern inglish.

World War Furry mayhap?

Ooohh must have! Will do research at local Aldi (both of them) to see if there's any left.

@StudSpud The Starchy I think you'd enjoy this video - one of my favorite channels.

Sky pretty.

Comes from the Tenniel illustrations to Alice in Wonderland. Iconic.

Been there. No fun. I haaate having hair falling in my face or into my ears or bunching up at the back of my neck. Also have wavy hair that's a pain to control. I found in Kmart a circular hair control device - its a circle of zigzag plastic an inch or so wide and a bit stretchy, big enough to go around one's whole head. I think its intended to hold back one's hair with an Alice band over the top of it. Put it on around the neck, then slide it up and it holds hair back from the forehead and up off the neck. Front of hair is held sleek and smooth, then the rest of one's hair runs riot behind it. Fairly comfy to wear, and you can put a bike helmet or hat over it if need be. Game changer for growing out hair past the annoying stage. And you can cover it with a ribbon or similar if you don't like the look of it.

I think we as a group need to rig the voting for the Word of the Year. 'Tradie Cats' is imo a very good candidate.

Lots of youtube stuff - I recommend Ozgeology for a local slant on this stuff. Melbourne based too. At least until he 'discovered' a river of gold underneath Melbourne. But seriously, this channel fits with everything I've learned so far about this town and continent.

All this stuff used to be called geography - but they don't teach that anymore as it was considered boring and irrelevant back in the 1990s. I have NEVER agreed with that verdict. Where we are on this planet and how everything works is something I been fascinated by since early youf. It's basic to understanding where we are and what is likely to happen in the future.

Perspective, perspective.
