I'm having a deja vu moment here but , I need to know - is Kai si ming the dish of choice in Borewood?

fortunately only among a diminishing minority, bbo, who still cling to women's weekly and margaret fulton recipes

do you still take your pots and pans down to the local romsey oriental take-away?

No. The local oriental take-away is on Uncle Bitter's punishment list. They did not bow and scrape sufficiently. I now take my wealth elsewhere.

Lemon batter chicken and special fried rice?

Is there half a chance we could all lift the level of conversation here? Chicken, cats, dogs,foxes, with lemon, like what are we eating now, with rice or not?

27 & 19. Is there more to life, that is worth exploring I wonder!

OK probably not here!

I better go to bed.

 

Wow. Coupla days off line and the place explodes like a zoo transport truck hitting a brick wall.

More like beef and black bean sauce and banana fritters, especially the fritters ...

Nice one, DC. Now we can work our way through the countdown via the menu ... (apart from 4 and 5 it seems).

Must say you have to love a menu that includes both chips and a meat dish under 'Vegetable Dishes' ... :):mad::blink:

Dr John. You are clearly a man of letters ...and numbers... so you maybe able to help me out with this. I have heard (yes I know hearsay) that in certain establishments in SE Asia that young female employees are in fact, identified by a number that is textered on their .... argh ... person.

Apparently the idea is that if you wish to have an intellectual discussion with said young ladies, you ask the maitre d to invite, let us say number 69 24 over to your table.

Is that your understanding of the process?

I think we may be at cross-purposes, Uncle Bitters. I fear that either to confirm or to deny your impressions about the practices of certain exotic establishments may damage the remaining few tatters of my reputation irreparably. In fact I had in mind something much more pragmatic, given Mr Cutter’s legendary standing in the more familiar establishments of Burwood, in that the use of numbers seemed to suggest a form of mnemotechnics (as we say in the trade, though I have in truth forgotten what trade it is) based on substituting retirement villa or apartment numbers for the names of their residents.

Perhaps I was wrong to do so. I notice that the more innocent, or those with more generosity of spirit amongst us, such as the inestimable Biffen, have taken Mr Cutter at his apparent word and see nothing more licentious at issue than the consumption of Chinese food. If so, I will need to regard Mr Cutter from hereon as a mere gourmand rather than (as others had promoted him to be) a gourmet of more interesting tastes.

No it's not, you are ahead of yourself grasshopper. The balls of the chicken, ( which is interesting in itself ) is tomorrow's dish.

Around here that would be walk and chew bananas wouldn't it?

Duly noted Master. That's what happens when you skim posts like I did of Earl's from yesterday.

Anyway, at least we know what is on the menu for tomorrow as the countdown continues...

lol this thread gets better everyday

What a perceptive little vegemite you are. Enjoy the wonderful frivolity on here, away from the bitterness and nastiness of some of the other threads. The only sniping allowed on here, is about the magnificent countdown, that drives all of us onto greater and more wondrous achievements.

Thursday 26 & 18

As grasshopper HT has told you it is Sour Chicken Balls day.

Who would want to eat the sour balls of a chicken? It just makes no sense, as Seinfeld the Grand Wizard used to say.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
