The totally off-topic thread

Doing a travel survey and was asked how much I have spent on recreational travel in the past 12 months and I answered honestly.

Received error message, saying "Value too high for survey".

Opps

Bah! Less than $100K per couple should not count!

I guess I don't count then.

In the wake of 2 senior ministers of SA Govt resigning yesterday there has been a cabinet shuffle. One has been appointed the Minister of Space. What?

Is SA still the festival state? Or is it now The Pork Barrel State?

 

[drron]

I don't think the current SA Govt is that popular on Kangaroo Island either.

They’ll probably try sell it again.

don't make too much noise as you go over then - I'm QF WP - what's the best lounge for a BA J flight tomorrow

The BA F lounge does the job nicely. When I fly out each week I use the Priority Pass on my AMEX to get £15 @ Grain Store given the F lounge doesn't open till 7am and I fly out only moments after then.

Busy day in the kitchen.

Made a couple of lasagne (what's plural for lasagne?), made marinades to freeze for beef brisket later this week, made spinach and onion quiche with duck eggs from brother in laws pet ducks and tomorrow will attempt Korean double fried chicken in sauce.

I now feel like having KFC @ Japanese Canteen in London... most tasty!

Amazing service you receive when you pay $7000 for a visa. 6 month multiple entry bridging B visa issued within a day or so from applying.

Now wait temporary visa approval.

Always a stressful time. Today was my first time entering UK after my residency card ran its date. Technically don't need it but it does save a lot of questions and hassle.... just waiting for my ILR to come through but stuck in a backlog as unfortunately citizens of Europe haven't heeded UKBA's advice and have all sent in to get their residency status confirmed.

Nope. We are still in his electorate but it’s more marginal. He’s also taken a very active campaign for Yes back here in Adelaide. He’s not in the Senate

My job today was to secure Foo Fighter tickets at presale.

Only needed 2 (hubby and his concert babysitter/not me), but in the rush, bought 4.

Me to hubby: I'll be able to off load them, even if we give them to nephew-name and his girlfriend.

Hubby: Cant I just sit with empty seats around me, like business class? You can make a velvet rope to block off my area.

Hvr, as you sure this was the correct thread for your post above? Seems to be more relevant to the DSC thread or similar. Do you want me to move?

Hmmm ... an on topic post ... but to which topical thread does it belong ... ?
