In the immortal words of Frenzal Rhomb:

Can't drink the water in Sydney, can't eat the food in Japan, can't breathe the air in Los Angeles though a million people think they can...

You can too drink the water in Sydney, now. There's no more Giardia..*snickers*

As opposed to Adelaide, where you allegedly _eat_ the water. smiley - cheers

T'ain't nothing wrong with edible water. Provides you with lots of fibre and roughage. (oh no, we're hijacking the thread again!)

Cafram, are you going to be petrolhead groupie at the Aussie grand prix today?

Put your money on a McLaren car to win. (The cars are named after Bruce McLaren. He was a successful Kiwi race driver)

Answers - select the one that applies smiley - laugh

Cafram - Linda has already put it on the announcements page of this week's Post

Cheesecake - if you've got a chesty cough get yourself some seneca and ammonia (senamon) from the chemist - no prescription needed - it's an old fashioned semi-natural medicine - take 40 mls to start with a glass of water afterwards and then 20mls every 4 hrs. It won't react with any other medication, doesn't make you drowsy and it really works - I've taken it for bronchitis for years - if you've got a nagging cough take 2 drops of eucalyptus oil on a spoonful of sugar - stops the cough for about 3 hrs. WARNING: The senamon tastes FOUL smiley - yuk - our kids call it elephant's p*ss smiley - laugh

SMoB - Crypto AND Giardia last time - but the germs went away - I think they got scared by the air pollution smiley - winkeye

I've had Senamon before *hides under her couchoggoth and trembles* Scary, scary stuff, even for me. I'll get over it eventually but. I always do *sniggles* I just gotta find some friends who aren't smokers. smiley - laugh

Surely Feisor, if you've been taking it for twenty years and it hasn't work yet, it might be time to try something new.smiley - biggrin.

Cheesecake, try Friars Balsaam, also tastes awful but I swear by it for my bronchitis.

See you on 13/4, hope you can come PB(SMoB)

smiley - hugs to all

Cheesecake - "I've had Senamon before *hides under her couchoggoth and trembles* Scary, scary stuff," - yep!! That's the stuff!! smiley - laugh

Getting better already just talking about it. That's how good Senamon is! *why does it sound like a demented pokemon though?* smiley - laugh

I see, in the grand tradition of the gold medal winning speed skater, the Aussie Grand Prix driver who came fifth on Sunday (because all the best cars and drivers crashed), is being hailed as a modern-day hero.

I still stand by my statement that sports people aren't heroes. They pursue a hobby as their career. Hardly worthy of hero-ism.

Very sage Cheese smiley - smiley I agree, alas, the braindead Aussie media doesn't.
