Not unless there’s an ambulance on standby I think as the ingredients are more complicated than a science experiment! Either that or the fire brigade as I’ll either burn the house down from excessive chillis or neglect in the kitchen!

So it’ll be fine as long as @JessicaTam is in attendance?

I am just glad you changed your avatar the last one was scary !

Haha oh dear, that didn't occur to me — good thing I thought it was time to switch to a cheerier avatar anyway!

(More fitting too I guess... I don't think Klingons care whether they get a mattress pad in J. Or maybe my last avatar lost an eye from a priority boarding attempt?)

On a different note, I was curious about the world's shortest commercial flight (one of the trivia questions from Sunday) and came across two interesting articles and videos about that 1.7mi flight, and the pilot who set the 53-second record:

A big thanks to everyone who kept those of us who couldn't attend entertained!
I really enjoyed reading along and the photos were terrific.

Looking forward to joining you all next year.

I agree. We were attending! Right up until the Qantas Longreach Charity Flight popped up again!

Great to catch up and celebrate 20 years of AFF with all those in attendance. Some photos of the dinner on the Saturday night. Interesting to listen to the history and development over the 20 years! Thanks to the organisers and for the gift we all received as part of the celebration.

Have you saved some photographs on the USB yet?

Not yet. Will try that next. Opening the tonic was very important

I could be wrong but I don’t think so Major.

We did discuss it at the mods meeting the other night.

Going back to Jasmin this Friday for our Work Christmas break up. It was originally at an Italian restaurant on Monday (tomorrow) but none of us really like Italian as it was heavily pasta based on the menu, except the person who booked it, who is Italian, and as part time she only works Monday, Thursday and was going to have Friday as leave. Somehow despite everyone else wanting Friday it became Monday. Thankfully we all had a chat and it’s now Friday and not Italian. Obviously.
