Soju!!

He seems like such a nice uncle.

Myself and a few of the boys might come around a bit later. Better put that Soju on ice.

OK. It's been over rated for a long time I think. Chocolate.

Don't get me wrong - I still eat it, but it is not as good as it used to be back in the olden days.

the chocolate bars are getting smaller too

as for the taste..well It used to be a real treat when I was a kid so you appreciated every mouthful.

Now the young un's eat it like its going out of fashion

speaking of grumpiness. There's an epidemic of barking dogs in the neighbourhood at the moment !

so if people are wondering if their cute little designer dogs bark is annoying the neighbours, the answer is yes, it bloody is !

and they probably spent 5 grand on it too !

Centrelink. The points load up on your seniors card and can be used towards a discount at Dunkin' Donuts. Buy a large cup of chino and get a cinnamon doughnut for only 50c

And can anyone tell me with the Warne and Wallis heart issues what we actually supposed to ask when we see our GP? Like blood pressure is a given, but what else?

There's a thing called a Heart Health Check - covered under Medicare.

You should be able to just ask them for that: What is a heart health check | The Heart Foundation

Do you need symptoms or is 53 years old enough of a reason to ask?

Do you need symptoms or is 53 years old enough of a reason to ask?

I think it's designed to catch those who don't have symptoms.

I'm about to book in for mine. I'm 45 and have a family history of heart problems, and then Warnie happened. And then my brother's friend, age 47, who is very fit and healthy, was complaining of a sore chest last week - next minute, open heart surgery.

Are they doing matched wines with it?

No idea, but I'm sure it matches well with Spumante, Passion Pop and anything Wolf Blass.

I was thinking that Blue Nun would pair well with Wicked Wings. The astringent, petrol-like after taste would cut beautifully through the excessive amounts of grease and poultry fat.

At some stage they have to pour Ben Ean moselle or they aren't being serious.

I have to say it. KFC is the worst take away available. I have it twice a year and each time remember then why I haven't bought it in so long. What do you have to do to get a crispy piece like they have in ads? Every time I buy KFC I get soggy chook pieces, crumbs often falling off. Is there such a thing as a crispy piece of KFC? I don't mind the flavour - I just want crunch.
