The totally off-topic thread

Another year and I somehow managed to book an overseas trip and avoid silly season.

Must temember to do same next year.

No special event, just some sparkle. My friends family are frantic. Her eyes are open, but no movement. She is only in her mid 40's with 2 teenage boys.

That's dreadful to hear.

Not sure?
Crows are killing me softly.

Oh dear. Things not going well at present for the Crows. They started off so well but seem to have lost the plot at present. Still time though.

At MEL airport.

Kudos to Richmond. Crows - what the heck just happened?

Just wondering if the crowd will boo James Hird when he presents the medal for best player. Stupid decision.

 

[serfty]

You won't hear tbe boos for the noise of tbe delerios tiger supporters.

......

Exactly. Richmond played like a million dollars and left the Crows in the dust. Guess no champers in the Pushka household tonight.

Very sad news, Bindi. Hope there is better news soon.

And boos for James Hird.

My friend works at the airport, private jets. This is her current desk situation.

He did seem an odd choice so I suppose the powers that be should have expected the crowd reaction.

His name was announced just before the AFL announced the sex scandal in the Execs. Guess they figured we wouldn’t notice.

We have the next GF tomorrow - Storm and Cowboys.

This one seems to work. Not sure why GIPHY is having problems like that, unless it has to do with them restricting hotlinking.

Deep fried cheese is still around! I remember it being served as a canape during a function I went to a few years ago. I don't think they served it with jam or berry sauce (would have done nicely all the same), but there was sweet chilli.

'Tis one of those things where it's really a guilty pleasure or your eyes eat more than your stomach can bear. For others, it's a rather disgusting concoction (i.e. fatty cheese and then even more fat by deep frying it). That's why berry sauce or even a good salad was necessary to cut through the cheese. Even that GIF of the raclette on steak looks amazing, but after a full meal if you stared at that picture there's a good chance you might be repulsed.

Some arancini that you get can be virtually all cheese with some rice. I've had one such served with a berry sauce and rocket leaves.

Mmmmm cheese!

I am a massive haloumi fan and the current trend of haloumi chips has me happy!

Finished booking cousins holiday - burned $9,100.00 in one night. Flights, accommodation, tours, car hire, Disney tickets etc etc....
My good deed for the day. (and not 1 point for me....)

Have to order a new office chair today as my old one is putting my right hip out as the chair base is now on a slant.
