It’s like KFC. The first bite is (usually) nice. At the end you just wish you hadn’t.

Now, now. Speak for yourself!!

After 3* Michelins, difficult to go past a KFC for lunch, especially during the cricket.

Question! Do you dip your roll or your chips in the gravy??

This one is my fav .... A Fund to Make Up for Not Winning the Lottery

Why didn’t we think of that?

Hmm. After reading the web post, I’m attracted to the “Let’s put a TARDIS in space.”!

Tongans celebrating in the streets of South Brisbane/South Bank earlier tonight. Thought they may have qualified for World Cup final. Checked the score. Bad luck!

I put my chips in the roll and dip it in the gravy.

I like kfc burgers but not their fried chicken pieces, it's too greasy.

I also make very good fried chicken.

How many secret herbs and spices do you put in it?

 

[Denali]

Not so secret when its on the internet.

Ive read some food blogs where people say their grandmother use to only use egg whites and flour and it was the best fried chicken on the planet.

I think grandma was lying.

Despot Housewives is an interesting watch.

If I was married to one of these men, I would be encouraging education and science but noooo, lets move billions to Swiss accounts while making the masses resentful and hungry. Yeah, because that always ends so well...

Seems Liberia former first lady (international banker who knows the tricks) is still a hateful cough, "In February 2012, Taylor attempted to introduce legislation into the Liberian parliament that would have made homosexual activity a first degree felony carrying the death penalty as the maximum punishment."

Last visit to the shopping centre for the year and this poor lady had been stuck in the centre couch for about 20mins, trying to get up but it's too low. She had a walker as well.

She's right, l feel like a giant next to most furniture these days as it's too low.

Poor lady.

1917??
Surely the one on the left is Cary Grant sometime in the ‘50s?

Well, we’ll. Never thought of that!

Chips in a roll - nah! Twistie roll - yum.

Just walked into Mr FM’s studio to find lots of near naked people. I suppose I should have expected it, as the diary entry for this afternoon was “Bacchus shoot”.

My mother always used to mention one of her wedding bouquets was comprised of Cecil Brunner roses. She and Dad would have been married 65 years in 2 weeks time.

which I believe the president, also a banker, said she would veto if it came before her.

Presidential elections were just held in Liberia, round 2 coming up. Will be interesting to see what happens. The outgoing president oversaw the forgiving of almost all of Liberia's international debt. A phenomenal effort.
