False... i will take em to the Salvo's (Salvation Army) and pay a gold coin ($1-$2) per gift and have them wrap them... charity donation.... well that's if I every buy them. ? TNP thinks presents should have ribbons.

Why is one leg up and one leg down when ya canoeing and not bike riding or is that how the brits do a triathlon...ride, canoe, run?

It was the first thing I noticed.... was gunna keep mum on it but NOPE one of the underlings had to spot it.

I like the way you think oh Great Queen of the Pool.

Shane, seeing as like beans and peas there are no winners and is even stevens then NOPE.... but when the over crew wins does that mean you are going to change your underwear... um I mean under ways.

to grab a bull by the horns

I quiet landing???? I know we say we are dropping some pollies off at the pool but pretty sure they don't need a soft landing.... the idea is to drown them.

Right now I am eating a bowl fresh berries (strawberries, black berries, raspberries and blueberries) with some home made vanilla yoghurt... YUM! ... well the blackberries are a bit hit and miss... but the raspberries are phenomenal and we are all having a good giggle when someone pulls a cats bum face when they get a sour blackberry.

cos I kinda feel grinchy for dissin' @Boo's Elvis contributions thought it best to make amends....

they are both rather strong sentiments for something we have chilled and only cos they have it in american movies and songs.... hmmm so if I have to either love or hate it.... HATE! Candy Canes - Peppermint or Fruit flavours.

Wagu Beef

Is that because they wear it on their head?

Oh Frog in the Pond is traditional Aussie Party food... the kids (and my dad) will riot if there is no frog in the pond and no fairy bread.... Frog in the Pond is a choccie frog in pond which is a cup of green or blue jelly.... usually green cos it tastes nicer... see....

^^ Bloody Hell Sslip, even the Aussie cricketers are cheering you on... maybe you've inspired Warnie to finally give up himself Sslip. Freddy's right impressed too... even though impressed might have too many syllables for him @Jet Black ... thanks for picking up on that... fyi, if you start the thread you can go in to edit your first post and you can change the title while you do it. Poor mods have enough stuff to deal with without my ineptitude as well.

Along the beach at sunset? True... within reason... none of that hiking stuff. TNP would choose to be French if they had to leave their country.

Wouldn't you pick the one with the coolest socks?

Fannie Bay, Northern Territory, Australia (no to put this in context... while fanny might be a word for bum in the USA it is a word for a girls front bum in Australia)

Dunno @reciprocity is Canada part of the USA? ?

Congratulations @Sslip cos Sslippidy Dooh Dah, Sslippidy Ay... my oh my your 11 months today! Well done on being 11 months smoke free. What an amazing journey you have had and how far have you come from the nicotine junky who smoked, chewed nrt gum and vaped all at the same time. I still can't believe the levels of nicotine you were floody your body with and you virtually quit cold turkey. You have an amazing quit, and you have been giving back since the very beginning. Thanks for staying the course and the support you off on and off the boards to the others here. 1 month to go and you will be on that Lido Deck so pack your bags.

That's what they say..... but they would be wrong... they had a similar thing called something else they published a recipe for a few months before we had the Pavlova... which was named for a ballerina.... and the recipe was published in the Argus as a Pavlova.... so then they started calling it a Pavlova too and claimed they invented it... I mean really.... would we steal something from the kiwi's and claim it as our own?

Um... at least until midnight.... 1) to make sure your house doesn't get burnt down by the illegal fireworks and 2) because I don't live in a nursing home. New Years Resolutions - make them or don't bother cos your never going to keep them anyway.

@despair not .... NOTSKI .... thanks for popping in with the woohoos.... and thanks for leading the way with my quit. I love that yous till pop in from time to time... even if it is mainly to add a number.... miss your contributions but thank you so much for your support and helping me get to where I am. We need to get ask a silly question up and running again... it was always so much fun when you came to play too. More than once the monitor needed a wipe down after a coffee spray from your answers... laughter really is the best medicine and the best crave buster so thank you for making me laugh. OH.... @G67 ... G-Ski.... I forgot the other day to sing out a thank you to you.... first and most importantly thank you for telling me I was a princess.... chucked it into my title straight away.... you are the first person since my old uncle paddy died when I was little to call me that but on the day you said I was having a bit of a shitty day and it really lifted my spirits... sometimes its the smallest things people say that can make the biggest impact on another. Thanks for being a mate and having a laugh with me when that was what I needed. Thanks for keeping the counting game going, even though I don't get in there too often because it really was getting to a stage where CoSA was becoming a potential reality. You play a vital role here... every day you nope and every day you add some numbers and interact with the others playing the numbers game... it might not seem like much but it is huge... primarily it creates a consistancy for others to watch, but it it also builds the community and believe it or not, as I said to beazel.... having active games to play kills craves and makes quits successful... so stay safe in Cali Mr Big Red Car.... cos we need you on our train.
