There's a change coming to Irish brewer of Guinness to suit vegans/vegetarians:

Your next pint of Guinness could be vegan-friendly

The "pin" method is rather common - I've seen a communal map in an office where people have stuck pins marking where the office collectively has been to.

I hope my pin method is a bit better than common.

That's why I love my big framed wall map, you can only stick a pin in the city you have been too (i.e have left the airport) We each have a different colour pin.

same with us

Well, you picked a nicer map than the one I mentioned. They just have a common political map that wouldn't be out of place in an atlas.

Lucky duck. This is what we saw in August


They still wanted the coins though! Most weren't obliging.

Sending a parcel isn't cheap. A 100gm satchel to Greece is ~AUD120.

Thanks. That was the one I was looking for but I couldn't remember where QF WP usually posted it.

Had a close call with a semi last night on my way home. I'm in lane 1 (left lane). Semi is in lane 2. He cuts me off to get to an exit. Not something that you want on a motorway at 90kph. I had to brake to avoid the truck.

Glad I had a dashcam to capture the moment.

A while ago, I mentioned about getting a drink machine for a mealroom.

We now have 2 machines, both of a similar type. The first machine had a $1.20 coin kit & the second has a $1 kit. We converted the first machine to a $1 kit.

The first machine had a part in the motor area burn out but is now going well.
