I need to know....

Has anyone ever ordered the deli food platters from Woolies?

We use them for functions at work sometimes. They are ok but I think making them myself would be better but time consuming

What are the most popular ones that get eaten?

Mrs Jase and I are starting the process of becoming Long Term Foster Carers... Both the Junior Jases are keen for this as well, and I was just wondering if anyone here had gone through the process and if so what were your thoughts on how it all went?

We are "signing up" with Lutheran Care so just interested in anyone's stories through the process.

Cheers

I'd be interested to hear about this too as it's something that's been discussed in our household a few times also.

Good on you mate for going down this path!!

We always buy the meat, cheese, dip and crackers ones

OK, cheers, I think I'll just make that one, I was looking at the wraps ones to buy and the missus was suggesting to throw in some antipasta one to which I lost my shit.

Can I ask what age bracket are you guys in and how old are Junior Jases?

Good luck, recently an older couple we know have had to take on two sisters that are pre-school aged, they were backed into a corner as the woman worked in a child care centre and it was in the best interest for the girls to go with someone familiar in the interim, their parents didn't show up court so now they will have care of them for the next 12 months.

We have offered to take them two nights a week, there's a lot of hoops we have to jump through for this to happen but we're willing to help so this couple can at least have some alone time.

We love kids but we are also looking forward to reaching that time when the kids are all off doing there own thing, I take my hat off to you for taking on such a huge responsibility.

Thanks mate.... It has been a decision long in the making... we wanted to make sure that the boys were old enough to understand what and why we might be fostering. We also wanted to make sure that if we were going to be fostering then it would be a youngster who wouldn't necessarily be the same age as them.

We'll get all the information and make our decision from there...

Does anyone use Senega & Ammonia when they're chest is a bit flu'd up?

I've got some Baby Vicks left over from when the kids were littler, you're welcome to use that!

Shoved a fair bit of that gear up the nostrils before I umpired on Saturday, this other gear tastes like absolute elephant arse but geez it does the job.

Yep, tastes absolutely horrid but geez it loosens up the phlegm and soothes the throat.

That stuff could bring zombies back from the dead but my word it smells and tastes disgusting

My late Great-Aunt used to put of dob, about a teaspoon full, of Vicks on the roof of her mouth and let it just dissolve whenever she felt like she was copping a lergy. Kicked on until 91 so can't knock it.

Used to. Mix in a bit of hot water helps sometimes too

I just have a cap full during a coughing fit and it sorts me out immediately, pretty handy at 4am.

Sheesh, that is gutsy.

Old Aunty Lyd forced me to endure it a couple of times as a little tacker. I didn't adopt the cure all as one of my own.

Yeah my Nanna uses it still - it's definitely old school.

Personally, I'd rather die a slow, coughing death than drink any form of medicine.

Once when I was sick, the doc prescribed me medicine which I just couldn't bring myself to drink, so my best friend brought her 2 kids (then 5 and 3) around and made them sit in front of me until I drank it, with the point being that I then had to drink it, because if I didn't drink it, then they'd think they could get away with not drinking medicine.

They sat very patiently for about 45 mins I reckon before I took the plunge and then ran dry reaching into the toilet
