Water to the left and I am thinking 4 over.

No doc. The view is from the club house. That's the putting green.

The 18th at Siam Waterside is a short par 4 dogleg right. The tee is off in the distance the other side of the cart path and green is off to the left and is almost drivable. I found the cavernous bunker ~100 yards short, chunked it out about ~40 yards short, skulled it past the pin for a comfortable double bogey after 3 putting.

It's apparently bad Feng Shui to leave the seat up. All your good luck goes straight down the toilet.

Sounds like karma - the good with the bad.

Speaking of toilet habits earlier, these posters are starting to go up at my place of employment in staff toilets.

I really, really, REALLY hope the last two diagrams are not referring to a cost cutting exercise where they are recycling the proceeds to the hand basins - I always knew there was a good reason I don't use the hot tap!

Jetstar has cheap flights to Bali today and of course the site has crashed with all the bogans booking flights.

I have heard that this poster has also been seen in female toilets. I'm not sure if someone is taking the p*ss (pun intended).

They are needed. my last workplace had a series of broken toilets attributed to Asian people who decide western toilets are best used by squatting on the seat. My current workplace the male toilet suffers feet marks, loose seat and spray on the seat frequently. I'm seriously considering printing your poster and putting it up.

Are you allowed to say that?

Everyone jumps down my throat every time I mention them. Just taxiing back in SYD on a QF flight. Great flight. Quiet cabin and you guessed it, no bo....

Interesting choice, The Langham SYD. I stayed there when the hotel was still named The Observatory and didn't find the pool that special. Unless some serious renovations were done when the property change hands I would pick Crown Metropol's pool in MEL instead.

How did you know the site crashed? Were you one of the bogans as you call them trying to book a cheap flight? Or were you the only one trying to book a cheap flight who was not a bogan?

A diamond is forever, but an expensive engagement ring means the marriage might not last that long. According to a new study, spending between $2,000 and $4,000 on an engagement ring is significantly associated with an increase in the risk of divorce.

$2K expensive :shock:

I'm amazed that 'kangarooing', as we called it back in my uni residential college days in the late 1960s, by Asian students, still occurs all these years later :shock:.

My old high school had to put in metal toilets because students kept breaking when they squatted on them.
