Not so universally now - the ban is honoured more in the breach than in the observation.





Sometimes I just sit and think. Other times I just sit.

When New Zealanders really do live up to their reputation as being a bunch of sheep shaggers...

Not something to be proud of, but you've got to see the funny side. Premium content, but none of the incidents mentioned actually include sheep.

Jeez, just spend an evening in the Amsterdam red light district. One of the featured nightly attractions there used to involve a lady and an Alsatian (dog, not resident of Alsace).

Template for marking a 154mm diameter circle to cut holes for vents - printed for your convenience on a Weiss box.

 

(And nope - I didn't - or this would have been posted in the "annoys me" thread).

Can just see the marketing guy. "Oh no, the Feng Shui is all wrong! All that white space makes the box look unbalanced. Let's just shrink it by 20%".

 

Looking on the bright side, be pleased it isn't too big.

Nah, those komelon ones are good. One of the few without stupid incomplete numbers on them which is why I got them and threw out all the others I had with the silly partial numbers. (Might still have one crap one here because it has inches on it)

Yup, looks like one of those ones you use in d**ksize competitions to give to the other guy, makes objects measure shorter than they actually are.

Went looking for a breadmaker, got one of these:

 

Breville the Multicooker 9 in 1 - Noel Leeming

 

 

 

Waking up to freshly cooked bread, especially of this variety is amazeballs

How much lower our grocery bills are now that we no longer have any offspring living in the house.  I'm almost excited about the next power-bill.





Sometimes I use big words I don't always fully understand in an effort to make myself sound more photosynthesis.
