Fairy bread @DenaliBlues ...Ahi... we just call it yellowfin. Tend to have more bluefin to fish down south where I am but up north where NOPE Dave lives there is good yellowfin fishing.

When I can I like to post something bush tuckerish....or from my parts of the world... ensaimada

Sometimes a singer and a song writer is more than just an entertainter.....Archie Roach was an elder, a leader, a teacher and an example for all that regardless of the crap you get dealt and the hardships you face your life is always what you make it and you can rise above, but more importantly bring others with you. My favourite Aystralian of the year your passing is way to soon but your music will forever be the soundtrack of my life. VALE ARCHIE! And the last song...

Off to spend 2 days at the parental babysitting my brothers dog that they are supposed to be babysitting but have decided to head off for the weekend. Unlike Doreen's King Louis none of us know what the he'll Dusty is except naughty and annoying.

Comm Games are a go.... so in the spirit of all great sporting events it's time for some rev up music...

1. I had a ginger cat called TOF (Three Of Five). 2. I had a white cat called Chocolate 3. I had a grey cat called Moomba

3. Is the lie.

I had an app on my phone that would send me little reward sms... it's 1 hour since you smoke..as the awards went further, the messages would come with updates about what changes to my body/health I had achieved. It also had a memory match game that was timed. By the time the timer ran out the crave was gone. Um...I played all the games, who can forget a whole page of boobies. I stirred the shit. I played hours of minesweeper. NOPE was a big thing for me....I mean I'd pledge it publicly to one and all...made it harder to cave to the crave. I used nrt chewies...plus they got me through some tough times...negative, they prolonged the whole withdrawal stage and craves...if I had the time over would I use them again?...probably. For me, I needed the psychological crutch they provided...I do think my approach, which was to make the gap between chewies longer each time and to have a normal chewie every second time, meant I wasn't substituting 1 addiction for another....nrt is not for everyone...it certainly isn't the cure all..but for me it was a tool that contributed to my success. Sovereign Hill Raspberry Drops....for those not from the great land diwn under or lucky enough to have visited our wonderful tourist attraction Soveriegn Hill, these are the greatest lollies (candies/sweets) ever. They are a hard boiled Raspberry flavoured lolly which I would suck during a crave...not overly sweet with a slight sour kick, not unlike a real Raspberry, these things were my reward.

Well chucking my hat in the ring... I'll say 3 is the lie

Confession: I'm counting sleeps until the Commonwealth Games Starts.

Thanks Jillar.

You know you lived in Aus during the 80s and 90s when hearing this song makes you crave chocolate milk Yep that's Angus & Malcolm's brother George Young on the drums....Vanda and Young gave us Aussies all our hits of the 60s and 70s....Aussie rock royalty.

9. Burn as a symbolic cleanse when a relationship ends

4. Stick to the wall and through darts at it to expel negative energy.

G'day..... so our resident Queenslander got out his dress budgie smugglers for the photo shoot....

I think I've found Mr August...

Then we have the front girl... Love me some Baby Animals and Killing Heidi but surly Chrissi was our greatest front girl ever and a gift to the whole world...
