On a plus side I have been looking for another 60's aluminium foot locker for quite a few years now, they are quite rare as they were only issued to servicemen posted oversea's (so I am told). To my delight there were three at this years swap meet for the princely sum of $60 ea. Bloody bargain.

Well.... to explain.....the girls doing the cooking were busy, I was waiting ....... and waiting for breakfast, so I volunteered to cut up the onions....

No Ash.....no butts.... bacon, eggs and onions.....6am heart starter... the free cappuccino coffee tasted real good...(my "payment" ) :lol: I would have had breakfast at Jeff's but his cooker was off line.....or she was sleeping in....one or the other.

Next you'll be trying to convince the godams meat pies have more than thickened flavoured gravy in them.
Is the jacket and knife "is that a knife" you looking like a geriatric crocodile dundee clone?

As with everything here, it's all covered in the Pure Food Act, each and every pie must contain at least 25% meat..... and that covers the really cheap and nasty ones from Woolies or Bi-Low....
Today pies are subjected to bureaucratic controls as to what they must contain and random surveys show that they mostly conform.....but not always..... :lol: .. Locally made ones are the best by far.

Put it this way Mikey......Nothing, but nothing can replace the experience I had eating one of your dogs..:shock: ...unless of course, you've had a near death experience.. so that would come in a close second.

Chicken Twister.....How do I explain that.....Chicken raw, just had it's head twisted off.... feathers plucked.....oh boy!.. yum!

I call BS, Jon! :P :P

Two delicious 100% breast fillet Crispy Strips and fresh salad topped with pepper mayo and all wrapped in a soft warmed tortilla - the fresh way to eat chicken!

You look like you need a vacation! :lol: :lol:

Oh, this is coming from a guy with several near death experiences! :wink:
