Same, 9 of us in a bus heading up. Great value I reckon.

Marquee - $165 includes entry ( $32 ), race book ( $10 ), lunch and 10 drinks ( assuming drinks are $10 each average - $100 ) so you're paying about $25 for lunch.

30°, I'm going shorts.

Meeting the great man @Booney on Saturday.
Also through messages finding out that on his table will be the parents of the girl who helped my daughter with the transition to her new job. Small world

The basket of chocolates I have being emptied.

Went to my family Easter lunch and I've ended up with an insane amount of chocolate, there was two massive favourite boxes (with Cadbury cream eggs) a box if Lindt, a box of Roses, about 3 smaller packets of Lindt, a 24 pack of Ferrero's and then there was about 20 Cadbury cream eggs and a bottle of Pepperjack's in a bag.

I've tipped them all into this big basket I have and it bloody well filled it!

It would appear my planned business trip to Sri Lanka in June will coincide with the Aussie cricketers being there at the same time.

Coincidence… I’ll let the forum decide!

Hey Jim yeah I have been. Had numerous emails with customers all of whom assure me that it’s safe for me to visit.

If it turns to crap shortly before I fly out, I can always defer…

Interestingly though, some of my customers were impacted by the cash crisis in 20/21…. They are spending now like it’s a thing of the past.

My friend comes and has lunch with me and we play nearest to the pin, whoever guesses closest to how many 6 inches he eats the other one buys the winner a can of coke.

I've gone 15 and she's gone 14, she won last round as it was pizza and he polished off 17 slices, I backed him in for 12, better still, as he finished up he got a few random pieces from each box and made a full pizza then took the box away to where he works, probably grazed away for the afternoon too.


Pizza day today, the dude has been off for 3 weeks and comes back from leave today, a bit of a coincidence.

I messaged my fried to say "look who's at the coffee machine"

Then I hear her yell out "Hey ****, are you here for the pizza today?"

My brother used to work in Phnom Penh
First time I went up there he said come into the office about 5pm for pizza etc
He said "watch this"

**** me - I've never seen 20 people demolish a weeks worth of food so quickly and efficiently
Seriously, there would have been 30 party size pizzas plus all this other stuff. It was gone in an hour.
