So much funny = Top Tips. Specially the cyclist and naan.

I would love to try possum, sure it would be a rich meat, and I imagine it as quite similar to hedgehog for some reason (which is delicious!) I eat roo, once you figure out how to cook it (very quick or very slow), it's a great meat. I've eaten crocodile which is okay too, but think I need a bit more practise cooking it. Possums are abundant, so would try them if it was an option. Sallyo, I love possums, in spite of their garden destroying ways, smelly urine and very noisy night time noises. Koala are a bit too scarce to think about eating.

I always find it interesting the different meats people eat and consider acceptable and which they don't.

@Candicemarie, thank you so much, you have just made my day a lot brighter!!!!
Apparently koalas weren't eaten because they just didn't taste any good. That tip from the Aboriginal centre in the Grampians.
Hooved animals are one of the worst things to have happened to the outback in terms of environmental degradation so I try and avoid them on principle. I do like roo and make a mean 'roogan josh' and 'vindaroo'. You can get wallaby in Tas too which is nice in curries.
I used to be very anti eating roo in England but realised when I moved here that it was a very ecologically responsible thing to do, although I worry about the harvesting process.

Anyway, on a cheerier note, my thought for the day:

When you feel that nobody loves you,
Nobody cares for you,
Everyone is ignoring you,
and people are jealous of you
You should ask yourself....

Am I too sexy?

Here's one to ponder!
The way to hell is not through good intentions,
but through deviations from the path of intention.

Haha, too sexy @debs

@candicemarie we actually used to do the Scrooge one with our neighbours, two Christmas cards that for years went back and forth.
I agree with the roo eating, I really like it and it's very good for you too.
Thanks everyone for the great laughs this afternoon

We do that with Christmas wrapping paper; we have been passing back the same paper for 15 years and it is getting smaller and smaller!

@candicemarie.....

The naan bread almost made me throw up but I was too busy laughing, thank you xxxx

Found a new fasting tool. On fast days, wear clothes that are too small. I am doing this right now and feel like such a porker, it is keeping food out of my mouth!

Great idea @GMH because what's the thing that we do once we've got the item on?
Answer:::
" pull if back off double quick "
Because we don't like what the mirror is showing
so by keeping it on we are faced with reality!!!
Brilliant. & Welcome back again.

Lol some great thoughts on here.

Think I'll go and put on some small, tight clothes. See if that helps me get to the end of the day haha

Oh gosh koalas are just too too cuddly for words and soooooo sweet..i cdnt eat one,.i feel bad eating chicken..and lamb coz they're cute too..
I was a vegetarian for a long while tho was virtually vegan..when i got sick and then didn't start getting well again for a long time, i started eating meat again,mainly chicken,in case it helped..it has helped a little ..since 5:2 i have times i crave steak so i have one now and again ,think we have to listen to what our bodies ask for..but i believe that when i have hankerings for sugary stuff,thats coming from my emotions rather than from the wise part of me...sorry for rabbiting on,anyone who reads this!

I think I'll put on some tight pants, slip a Naan bread in as well, should help with both fasting and a Naan love

That reminded me of the old story about the bloke who never had any luck with the ladies and asked his more attractive mate for advice, he recommended putting a couple of spuds in his swimming trunks to impress the ladies on the beach. When he reported back that the spuds made no difference his mates suggested that perhaps it might help if he put them down the front of his trunks rather than down the back

P.S. The old ones are always the best, well, that's what him indoors says

Hey, will call at the stupor market for naans before our bike ride!

Today's thought if the day is: I think I need a bum transplant. I don't know if it's cavorting (neigh, prancing) about with tight pants and a Naan or if it's carrying my injured dog about, or simply not enough prancing...BUT my bum feels like I have prancercised up Kilimanjaro! I'm walking like the Naan has become wedged somewhere. I await relief.

I will NEVER be able to look a naan bread in the face again without having rather strange thoughts
