I just gotta do this for next christmas with fam. The screams will be heard across the border. Might roll the pork fillets in hawt sauce before stuffing though, for extra shits & giggles.
Reckon so. Kylie came along a bit after those uncritical teenage years, when whatever you hear most often on the radio becomes the tribal anthem for that generation. For me it was Chuck Berry and then the Beatles.
Eerrrrggghhhh. Late to the party this morning. We had some excitement opposite me in our street last night - 3 am firetrucks and cop cars. Cops carefully saying nothing, but the firetrucks were all hooked up to the water supply, and lots of firies everywhere in gas masks. The houses opposite and me and my next door neighbours all got woken up and asked to leave for a safe space up the street. Presumably a gas problem/leak of some sort I reckon as no smell of fire. After an hour or so they let us back home and the trucks packed up and left. PSA: Oodies and ugg boots are fantastic for evacs of this sort - pocket holds all sorts of things and very very warm. They did offer us blankets but I didnβt need one with the oodie.
As per PeelerSheila - sort the problem. My prioritised list would be - kitchen (including washing up and countertops but not floors), bathroom, bedroom then living room. In short, do small bits with big impact, then work down through the list. The floors can wait, the washing up canβt due to microbiology. A big area like the living room - find a dump zone (eg tabletop/sofa), then put all clutter there. Then straighten up the furniture (and floor if you have the energy) then depopulate the dump zone item by item into its proper place. Thereβs a hundred ways to do this - itβs finding one thatβs doable for you right now.
Hiccups happen when your diaphragm gets out of sync with your breathing. Most of the effective methods force these to re-synchronise. Drinking water out of the BACK of the glass makes you bend over forwards, which temporarily halts your breathing and when you straighten up to swallow, you start breathing again in sync. Usually. Also you might like to slow down the rate of eating, as gulping air along with food can set off hiccups. As a survivor of a boarding school where food happened in a lions on the kill fashion, I learned to bolt food as fast as possible. This caused quite a few issues that I had to learn how to slow down eating to fix. Hiccups was only part of it.
I would also like to tell all of the people asking for advice on their self managed super funds that if you have to ask for advice on Facebook about how to manage it you should not have a self managed super fund.
Fully agree. They should ask their accountant(s). Sorry, registered financial planner as you need to have a licence to give advice on superannuation.
Mind you, my boss when he was a commercial law student asked his tutor for a quick 10 minute run down on how super worked. His tutor rolled on the floor laughing.
And a truly wonderful Tandberg cartoon came out in the 80s - two suits sitting at a table in a pub - one says to the other βYeah itβs a social thing. We get together on a Friday night, have a few beers and change the laws on superannuationβ. Says it all. I think I still have a copy somewhere as I had that stuck on my screen for years.
Teknikly it is- the original name in French is Sauce Mayonnaise - that is, sauce from the city/region of Les Mayons. Like Bearnaise sauce comes from Bearn. But opinions differ on this.
Gimme vintage cheddar cheese - ordinary even tasty cheddar just doesnβt have enough bite. Iβm not all that fond of Cracker Barrel - I quite like the Aldi vintage one though.
Would not surprise me. I donβt actually mind, as theyβre a LOT more careful with their labelling than some supermarkets I could mention (cough cough colesworth cough cough). An honest label is fine by me. Anyway, cheddaring is a separate process in cheesemaking, and an optional one in my opinion. Itβs the end result that counts with me.
Time to give him the flick. You are the one doing all the emotional labour here - heβs coasting and exploiting your anxieties. He has time to goof off with mates, but canβt spend 15 seconds texting you. Time to call it quits and move on.
