The totally off-topic thread

Seems it wasn’t just QLD, but also Germany.

I did not think the Germans were as far behind the rest of the world as Queensland.

I guess I was wrong.

I guess everyone here likes aviation, so thought this might interest some. Not sure when it’ll begin shipping, cough, flying, but looks like a really fun toy!

Parrot AR.Drone: iPhone-controlled helicopter leaves us speechless. Towards the end of the video you get a size for it too, it’s bigger than you think

Do you still wish that :?:

Yes, of course - I would have laid off on the 9's being posted this morning for an OZ win.

e.g.

• $10 at 5:1 to Collect $60 (pre match)
• Layoff bet this this morning of $5 to collect $50 (Wed Morning before start of play)
• Total outlay $15
• If Oz Win - collect $50
• If Pakistan win - collect $60

Of course, I needed to have that bet on the Tourists in the first place :-|

I said I believe him.

It does not really matter as he did not lay the bet anyway :!:

When the stars align, you can clean up.

Can anyone explain to me why I'm watching TMZ whilst waiting for a windows 7 slipstream to finish is a good idea. Anyone, anyone?

Seriously, I don't understand what people see in it. It's like Entertainment Tonight, starting an illegal substances using male version of Mary Hart. It's scary, scary stuff.

Maybe everyone else was doing something similar after a big day on the off topic thread yesterday.

Haven't had anything too interesting to discuss. Could mumble about the weather, but I think you're all sick of me winging like a Pom

Could mention the theatre I've been seeing (seeing three shows this week. First was on Monday - Wicked, then last night and again tonight), but apart from Wicked, I think some would look at me strangely if I mentioned the theatre I'm watching. (And no, it's not Aladdin - and FYI, Pamela is no longer the genie either!)

So long as you are not starting to look or smell like one then all is OK :!:

Hahaahahahaa. No. Ditto for Sister Act.

You should know of one of them (think something that was due to start after you'd left). The other one wasn't discussed while you were over here.

I thought English people took a shower every day. It was the Irish and possibly the Scots which you had to be weary of.

Egad no! ... It's a bath! And once a week; used by the whole family/friends/relatives one at a time (OHAS) in a variable pecking order ...

Serfty what are you doing up at this hour; you don't have to moderate the forums 24 hours a day. :shock:
