One has only so many hours in a day, so one's visits to No T$ No B$ are sporadic.

The new vistas each time are enchanting.

Though oddly disturbing in equal measure...

They can put a man on the moon etc...

 In this age of technological advancement in every facet of life we have driverless cars, 3D printers, robots performing surgery, we’ve landed a vehicle on Mars, the list goes on, and on and on. Why, then, can we not have interviews on TV via satellite WITHOUT that annoying 5-second delay?!?! It’s 2024, not 1954. Surely some boffin or other can figure out a way to do it.

 

PS: my favourite biscuit is the Tim Tam, but not any old Tim Tam, I love the ‘Chewy Caramel’ variety, in particular.

That's strange, because I had the "Don't Disturb" sign up.

Try these feckers from Ireland 

When I see the word Mikado I think of Gilbert and Sullivan and of course Japan.

As the biscuit appears to be called Elite and Chocolate Mikado is the flavour, I wonder what other flavours they come in.

Silver Sake.  Strawberry Sashimi.  Neapolitan NiNgiri. Tangerine Tempura. Lemon Yellow Yakitori. Raspberry Ramen. Nectarine Nasu Dengaku.  Uncle's Udon.

No need to overcomplicate matters Red . [censored] !

U don't want to know how they make the Uncle's Udon...!

Have great memories of Ballyshannassy Park, playing Gridiron as an 18 y.o and nearly getting killed every week 😄

My main concern for the game is how well Max recovers from watching the Giro D'Italia final competitive stage last night.

Plus there's the let-down of commuting through the dreary 'sameness without theme' of an Australian city after watching the landscape of Northern Italy go past for five hours.

Hopefully it manifests in anger. A real 'I will create something beautiful today and nothing will stop me' moment.

I see this post arrived below a '2 weeks later...' notice. I hope achievement of 30,000 posts hasn't been 2021-like in creating a no-more-mountains-to-climb attitude.

Back on pace and on message, please, ladies and gents!

We'll find a way
