Ah, but I'm not an Idol fan either so I don't see anything wrong with Kott3r not liking it.

In fact, I'd have to consider that being an Idol fan is a little strange, wouldn't I?:D

I'm vey proud of the fact that I have never seen even 1 second of any of the 'Idols', 'Big Brothers', 'dancing with anyone, or on anything'.....unfortunately SWMBO is addicted to 'The fattest losers of all time'...I watch cos I'm hoping they'll drive 'em to having a heart attack.....I wanna see the paramedics try & lift 'em. ROFLMAO

Ah, it all becomes clear now. ;) Well, I suppose I should confess I saw an episode of "Biggest Loser" once - it involved 2 families of frightening proportions. It was fascinating yet horrible at the same time.

Ok, so Existence has a crush on Bobby Flynn. That much I figured out.

I don't have time for another forum, especially one that doesn't seem to work so well. I'm busy enough here. Anyhoo, someone tell Jock, Climbo, and GKW that I said g'day.

Well its not exactly another forum, just one thread. Doesnt work so well? I think there has been less crashes over there than here. Here has been stable recently though.

Yeah, I had my suspicions about Existence and Bobby Flynn....nice to know I'm not the only one.:D

The other place does have some significant slowdowns at certain times of the day. However, it has one major advantage over this place and that is less censorship.

It seems most evenings at this time [6/7pm EST Oz] the "other place" runs out of um-pah-pah[?] Which is when I have been looken 'ere. Whilst I was twiddelin my thumbs {aka kicken stones** waiting for t.o.p. to fire up I notice that if you take away the 2 x Exys, kotts, mrs m, the odd Hitchy & Ozman, this place would be dead.

Interestingly, this is the first time I've had problems at 6/7pm. It usually grinds to a halt for me at around 9.30/10pm.

Anyone here a wine drinker? Dominique Portet Fontaine Rose - Yarra Valley wine, very nice drop, we've just finished a bottle of the 2003, highly recommended.

It's funny (and maybe ironic), but the biggest whingers in London are the Aussies. I cringe with embarrassment when I hear them sounding off on the train.

yes the poms LOVE to turn this stereotype around on us....ive had the line given to me (anyone suprised?? lol) by a few good pom mates when i was in the UK. to be fair i think when you take someone into a foreign culture they invaribly point out the differences...coupled with a prominent accent and you get 'super whingers'. it works both ways...poms over here and aussies over there...

im a huge wine buff im only teasing (when i say a huge wine buff i mean i like to go to a wine bar and drink non descript wine in copeus amounts :D at my relative tender age id like to think the depth of my appreciation for the finer points of wine culture will mature over time :))

Well, you can start with the rose then, it really is a top drop - warm summer's day......nice glass of chilled rose......some olives and stuff like that.....what more could you ask? (I'll leave you to find the nubile young thing to share it with :p )

No wine for me.....well not since I was 16/20 yo when I would get into Spumante or Brown Muscat [yuck] for a cheap/quick fix.... but mainly beer F & S nights. Made a right wally of myself, so much so that one of my nicknames was Blackout [this is only one of many NNs, another of which is Albert]
My Bride likes a drop though, very changeable tastes, mainly Chardonnays atm. Her taste for reds & port has developed with age. I've heard this is often the case.

Yes, well, never did get a full explanation for that - something about CF being a bit too much like home and not enough seppos to entertain with our quirky behaviour (or sumfink like that, never did make sense to me)

Ciao, Existence, buona fortuna.
