Go away helicopter, you are very loud. ๐Ÿš

(Spent most of my time in Melbourne in areas that rarely get night copters, so now I know what people go on about... I'd close the window but it'll get stuffy. Wonder what/who they're looking for.)

Car theft is apparently the usual.

I went and bought a new downlight globe to replace a dead one in my kitchen and it's flickering :( Urgh why couldn't it just work perfectly?

I think you might need this

Or this

Or an electrician. Two of those are cheap options.

Recent Wikipedia rabbit holes have taken me to some interesting places. Did you know you can cook watermelon rinds?!? Apparently it tastes like a cross between squash/zucchini, carrot and cucumber. I don't normally even buy watermelon but I have to try this out...

[โ€“] Catfish@aussie.zone 5 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I just eat them cut supper thin with x smidge of salt. Cucumber is a reasonable comparison.

Also mad shout for watermelon, feta, mint As a summer salad.

Cheers! I found a new thing. It will either be delicious or much too sweet

liquid Christmas

Doesn't matter what you do to Stone's GG wine - instant hangover for anyone over 18. Doesn't matter what you mix it with either. Have written myself off far too many times in my yoof on that shit. Made from hospital grade brandy and offcuts from the glace ginger industry. And hospital grade brandy is distilled grape stalks and seeds and only good for disinfectant. Granted it's quite good disinfectant.
EDIT for l'esprit d'escalier - think of the above as chocolate/orange flavored Handy Andy.

I quite like the Mac version as a winter warmer, but this one isnโ€™t hitting the Terryโ€™s spot I was hoping for.

[โ€“] dumblederp@aussie.zone 4 points 2 years ago (3 children)

We used to do hot chocolate powder and cointreau at a bar I worked for a terrys shot.
