Australians have a habit of getting flight durations wrong, remember years ago pulling Jimmy Barnes of Cold Chisel up over the lyrics to Khe Sanh, their early 1980's Top-40 hit, where he wrote:- Well, the last plane out of Sydney's almost gone And only seven flying hours, I'll be landing in Hong Kong Today it takes 09:40 hours. Jimmy's reply was "it rhymes better"!

Current stats have 1.2%* of the male population of Australia as showing symptoms of dementia, knowing @Olddaddy is such a unique individual, I wonder if he falls into this category or is his own special case? * = Australian Institute of Health and Welfare 2023 report.

For those Brits that want a reminder:- I woke up the next morning after a somewhat large curry & lager session to find a large branch in my living room.

I was hoping to sell tickets.

To misquote the late, great Sir Les Patterson, formally Cultural Attaché to The Court of St. James and Chairman of The Australian Chapter of The International Cheese Board, whose favorite hobbies included none other than pocket billiards, sauna construction in Thailand, wine tasting and infidelity, "not if you're a Vegemite driller". -

Sir Henry was a constant bed fellow of mine when I was confined within one of England's Public schools back in the mid 70's, no doubt the same for other members of this fine parish. Snuggled under the sheets with my transistor radio and ear piece. If caught by the dorm monitor reported for a dose of corporal punishment and confiscation of much prized radio. Tuned in to the dulcet tones of Liverpool's finest waiting the next installment of Vivian Stanshall's masterpiece. Those were the days.

Gave up on BBC 2 when they started removing the likes of Steve Wright, Simon Mayo and PopMaster, so now listen to Greatest Hits Radio instead. -
Agree, if you get a front room looking out on the Complex, then can be a bit noisy. When booking, ask Chris (Manager) for a back room, you'll not hear a thing. Also booking direct, you get a discount off food or drink.

You might need to use a proper butcher. I know Victor Churchill's over in Woollahra would have it or Stockmans the online butcher, but their's is most likely to be frozen, so expect a taste and texture impact.

Liver is a very good source of Vitamin D.

To misquote a former forensic psychiatrist:- "A forum member once tried to test me. I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice Barcardi and Diet Coke."

Like with most things off the Internet, quality isn't assured. Read the feedback if there is any. Found with Temu there are a lot of items advertised as "Only 4 left" as a physiological entice to make you buy it. Bought a few items, with some success. However, prefer Lazada, as their quality is better, and more often that not, identical items are cheaper.

QR codes don't just link to a website. Depending how it's been created, they can download Apps, manipulate your WiFi, network and security settings, transmit data etc. As an ex IT security consultant I have this facility disabled on my phone because of the risks. Was at a resturant couple of months ago where they had QR codes for the menu. Waitress had to hand over her phone as all the old printed menus had been binned.
