The totally off-topic thread

Any excess veggies go into a curry which I then freeze so as to eat when mrsdrron is not around.

What generation are you comparing them with and what makes you think it was otherwise?

Baby boomers. I wasn't thinking, I was asking.

 

[blackcat20]

And the problem is?

Me?

Though at least it's better than the time there was no working toilet. I had to be there for that one...

Pay very carefully attention to the time on the bottom of the figure and you will see, provided you can fight to propensity for being brain dead, that the UV level drops in to the second lowest zone at about 2:30pm and the to the green zone at about 3:30 to 4 pm. Ignore the science all you like, the facts speak for themselves.

Combine that with a skin cancer incidence double any other state only serves to highlight the utter ignorance that exists out there.

Are generation x and y mainland chinese rude as well ?

I don't see a difference.

Don't you hate catching all the red lights on your daily commute.

Would you risk a 3h 55m unprotected connection in SIN on a TG-> QF connection. I believe they are both at T1? Or worse case scenario I collect bags and check-in again.

The CX flight BKK-SIN arrives ~8h before SIN flight and I don't really want to wait that long. And earlier TG flight BKK-SIN arrives close to CX flight.

You will have oodles of time. Even if you had to collect bags and recheck, it would only be around an hour.

Yes. But knowing my luck.

You aren't there so you shouldn't be reading that! .

Working toilet presents a whole new world of pain. That kind of stuff usually happens when MrP is away.

Possibly not the best topic around which to abbreviate your S/O's name? ;-)

Care to share your recipe?

Am seriously annoyed at the Ato right now. As an overseas resident, some of us have to still lodge Australian tax returns, yet the morons can't handle the load when we call. That's fine, I'm going to bed soon. But why they close their call centre 2 hours earlier than Perth time today (yes I tried to call and hear the spell about their hours ) and their call centre is horrible today with call disconnects, delays etc. The very odd thing is without my personal details, I was given a wait time of 10 mins (not met) , yet after providing them, I ended up in on hold hell.

Here is today's forecast for Australia and the average for the year.

[RAM]

Yes. But knowing my luck.

Have a look at the history of the arrival times for TG and see what it looks like. Can you do OLCI (do you need to check in or can you interline it?) for the QF?

 

[cove]

Mal I was disappointed that the fiscal fiends at the ATO left you in a hold hell hole.
That reminds me that I called from London to Qantas as a Platinum I was put into hold hell hole so I got my Platinum One partner to call and the line was answered on the first ring so I hung up on the other call.
Mal maybe we should upgrade you to Platinum One status at the ATO.

 

[rogerkambah]

Yes. But knowing my luck.

Do it - live dangerously.
