Friday in the States--Sorry Al

[Honorary Bloke]

With apologies to Al, it is now Friday here, so drivel on if you like until he pulls the plug.

I will be gluing up (and probably stuffing up as well) a small table for my home office this weekend. More work on my kitchen reno and putting together the newsletter for our local neighborhood association.

Go for it.
I love drivel, special from the other side of the world.
I specialise in drivel, hey Ive got over 8k posts.

Hey Bob.
Just seen your sig.
Have you tried vegimite?
If not, send me your address via Pm and I will send you a jar.

I hate the stuff.:eek:

Thanks. Actualy I HAVE tried it (mother always said "How will you know you don't like it if you haven't tried it? ) I must say that it is not exactly my cup o' tea. :eek:

That is exactly what some people do with it. Add it to hot water and make a drink.
I must not be a true aussie either as I also don't like the stuff. My kids eat heaps of it and they can have it.

Good on yer Bob, I'm in your camp absolutely hate the stuff. To make matters worse every morning at tea break I have to watch two of my younger staff lather slabs of the stuff onto biscuits and proceed to eat it. Of course the best bit is as we provide morning tea and they get it in, so we even get to pay for it as well.

Sadly its patriotic to eat the stuff over here, shame it couldn't have been Cadbury's chocolate, which beats the brown stuff you have over there.

Cheers, John.

Yep, if the Al Qaeda gang ate vegemite on toast every morning, they'd spend the rest of the day guzzling beer to try and get the taste out of their mouth, and by evening we'd all be great mates.

Probly explains the high beer consumption here.

I'm afraid we are evidently just not up to the mark when it comes to drivel. Fortunately, we have several wonderful role models in the forum so we may be able to improve over time. Wait 'til next week!

Now .. now .. now. Not likeing vegemite is completely UNAUSTRALIAN. Anyone living her in OZ and does not enjoy vegemite on toast will be shot on site.

The secret to enjoying vegemite is moderation (funny how I have that word on mind at present ) anyway, A little goes a long way. Vegemite is not jam, you don't slather it on, but rather scrape it on, very very thin -- Perfect!!!!

Yes a jar lasts a long time in my household, but it is enjoyed every single time

Even being a moderate moderator, I cant stand the stuff in any other form than in moderation.
