The totally off-topic thread

They are delicious, so much so that it's probably a good thing you can't get them in Australia....

I get it now. They were treasures picked up while travelling. It explains why I haven't seen them on the shelf. No doubt, if they come here, Wooloworths Rewards and Flybuys will flood me with adds for them.

But looks like luck going our way again and may get out of jail.

That quote just confirms my original comment.

That quote just confirms my original comment.

Why? Are we looking at different games?

Lyon fields a ball hit hard at him and deflects off his finger tips and runs out non striker Mushfiqur Rahim who was batting very well at the time. And then Sabbir Rahman given out when clearly not out and choosing not to review with 2 reviews left in the 70th over. We should have been chasing 350 not 265.

And how did we start the chase? Warner dropped and then 2/28 and Smith walks off stumped but they check and find his foot is a millimetre behind the line. All the luck going our way.

But you know all of this and you still choose to ignore it. I hope the better team takes the 8 wickets needed for victory. We need batsmen that don't crumble like a deck of cards.

Something weird is happening, the errors are still showing.

That's really odd.

Yes but the Windies beat the Poms - thank god for that otherwise my English friends will be insufferable (well more insufferable than normal).

Not sure who watches Hard Quiz on ABC, last night one contestant chose commercial aviation as their special subject.

Have fun getting some of those questions right. :shock:

Now available on ABC iview.

I am fairly sure James has an account on AFF.

As you would expect I first time I met them was at an airport.

Hello, I'm back, sort of.

Trip to KL end of Sept + potentially Europe in Oct, feel like I've got a little bit of my wings back.

Don't rob a convenience store in LOTFAP-

That's bound to outrage some folk...

I watched it last night too and immediately thought he would have to be an AFFer - him wanting to use the trophy as an ice bucket for his wine sealed it for me

First fathers day this Sunday.

First fathers day this Sunday.

Congrats JohnK, I've been off AFF for a while and wasn't aware of this news - well done.

I cherish all the fathers day gifts I receive from my kids (mostly craft items), they think I've thrown out most of them, but actually they're all stashed away in a secret box only I know about

First fathers day this Sunday.

Congratulations. And it will be your Dad's first as a grandfather too I think.
Almost little one's birthday too?
Hope your wife is feeling better by then.

Yes, I read about that. Although not a good outcome it seemed to be the best thing, given the situation.

Thanks. Hope wife gets better too. Daughter sort of understands mummy is sick but sometimes she cannot hold back. Daughter was born the Sunday after Father's Day. I asked daughter today if she bought her father a present and she shook her head.

Oh you should see her now. She stood up today unassisted. She loves it. She must be ready to walk soon. And she has this wonderful sense of humour. She has made so many people happy.
