Stinky Rooster

total crossed up speedway slide with me on top of Ragnar The Yamaha? Nah, it looked cool. How could it not? The scene inside my helmet/pants? Probably not so much.

holy shitballs the roads in this city are treacherous this morning. Take care out there people! Hit a load of dropped detergent on the way to work. Had a (thankfully very switched on driver) watch me slide completely past the bonnet of his car this morning, trying to make a turn, road turns to polished glass and all of a sudden I am going straight, despite almost full lock on the bars and about 25 deg lean. Pretty sure they heard my arse clap shut in Bunbury. NFI how I managed to stay upright and miss the car waiting to turn, but I am pretty sure it looked cool AF so that was nice....

I got parts you can get handy with....

good luck with it bro. I know the pain of getting seeds to WA. Last time I drove through the WA border, the guys on the front line were way more interested in the apple in the cab, than they were about the 15kg of smack in the back of the truck

Trev - I am a big fan of guilford nursery. They do heaps of edibles and have an awesome staff that know everything. They also do pretty good blueberries. Corey - at Kwinana but apparently I will be gracing pinjarra from time to time.

Like most problems in life, the answer to this, is coffee! Srsly, its why they put bowls of coffee beans on perfume counters in stores. If your nose stops working properly, have a big sniff of some coffee beans, and it will wake right up again. Unfortunately, this is not recommended here. Losing smell at work is a good thing. The burgers at the canteen are pretty tits though. also YAY FKN FRIDAY!!!

Damn straight. Gotta love that extra soapy feeling

Close - alumina

shit no. This place doesnt even use hi vis clothing (but the contractor I work for does - he likes us to stand out like balls on a drovers dog) But you would have to be tapped in the head to want to walk around a refinery in t shirt and shorts. Pretty much every single thing in this place will kill you on contact.

lulz you make it sound like I am back on the tools not gonna happen brah I am the annoying git in the extra-shiny-hardly-ever-leaves-the-office hi vis carrying a clipboard and a tape measure.

Then you don't know the true meaning of Christmas Baby Cheesus!!

Also, happy date related festivities to everyone, and I hope you all kept in mind the true meaning of this time of year https://goo.gl/images/AN6YXB

A looooong way from the CBD.... Back in the on site designing game on the Kwinana strip. Just follow your nose to the biggest stink.

Oh hai lunch. First day on site at the new digs. It feels good to be back in hi vis. Feels even better to be wearing it in an office. (as opposed to a workshop or truck cab)

Pft softies. Softies everywhere But Yeah, Jan would be betterer for me too

You could always show up and sit elsewhere for a bit ? as much as I would love a BBQ I am busier than a one legged man in an area kicking competition ATM. Changing contracts (and possibly whole work environment) is keeping me flat out.

fkn breeders ? Imma bring the furkids. How about the 15th? Anyone have a preference for a (central) location?

well, it has nothing to do with Yule, but why the hell not!!!

Fair call, but I was more referring to the posting of xmas trees and the like. I am much more of a traditionalist myself. I will be drinking 3 toasts to odin, the rest of the gods, and the king, then sacrificing a goat and sprinkling its blood on my walls in hope for a fast end to winter and a prosperous harvest in the spring..

calm down there tinsel tits Its still fkn november

DID SOMEONE SAY BBQ????

I use it in the base for my dry rubs, so it needs to be a powder. I do use the paste as well, (render it down in lemon juice and add it to coleslaw dressing - its absolute tits) and have an awesome Asian supermarket that I get it from, but pretty much no one there speaks English worth a damn, and I am having issues explaining what I want.

Yeah, thanks for that mate. I especially appreciate the fact that you obviously think I am stupid enough to pay well in excess of $1000/kg for it...... Imma just keep getting the soup packets I think.

GTFO actually, wait. Before you do, I need a source for red miso powder. Getting sick of sifting all the tofu and seaweed out of instant miso soup packets. Suggestions?

Yeah, not a fan of anything I have seen coming out of that place, especially the catastrophic collision of dessert and dinner IMO no one should be allowed to mess with dessert, especially the yanks. Soooooo many burger choices in this city, it makes me wish I actually ate lunch when I was at work. I walk past short order every day (and its packed to the walls everytime)
