The wife has done quite well this time around... I found a brand new handbag in a charity shop that still had the label on. I reckon it would have been quite expensive from the original shop but only set me back six quid! She's also getting some of her favourite salami and I'm thinking of giving her my jar of cockles that I haven't opened yet.

I thought about these which see seems to enjoy at home...



Until I realised that in the UK they are in the 'pet food' aisle!

May I ask what it means, without a flake? Must be a British term. Nice you are spending time with your son.

It's a finger of a chocolate bar stuck I to the ice cream.

She's a lucky girl for sure. Don't spoil her though

Root canal (4th session of 6 planned - my dentist is a thorough bloke)

Run along the beach after

My butcher bird pal came with me

Spooky big ferris wheel erected in a dark field by itself in Coolangatta.

It looks eerie turning slowly with its lights on and one punter sitting in one gondola on a cold and windy winters night.

They should have candy floss and dodgems and waltzers and goldfish and hamburger vans and diesel fumes and hooligans and schoolgirls and chips and sauce and a scarred unwashed ruffian collecting the fares

Speaking of dentists I recently put the ole taillift ute to the test delivering a dental chair for a couple of wobblers [ATTACH=CONFIG]

A bit of haggling went on but they knew I had em by the balls and charged accordingly plus was promised a 40% discount on dentistry.

Actually the Indians are pretty good customers once the final price has been reached. I've got another customer who is a mobile caterer but to get his 450kg Tandoorie oven around Blds his go to guy

^Very handy set of wheels with the dropsides there Lao.

I wish I was getting 40% off the bill for this 6 visit root canal. I am getting well and truly rooted.

^^ where is Tezza staying now you've nicked his gaff?

A roving a roving a roving I'll go...

For a pair of brown eyes...

Nice quiet country roads on a Thursday without the weekend wanderers

Nature's grandure overfloweth

We lined up Mount Warning in our target sights

A sight to behold. It is the remnant plug from an ancient 50km wide super-volcano. Lucky I climbed it before it got banned by the wokester warriors

FF2 was taken with the buttermilk hue of these bovine bewts

Some rustic villages with galleries to poke around in along the way

Natural beauties abound around the hinterland

Just like a boyscout I always come prepared (top tip - if you keep the bottle in the chiller she will never know that it is not really Moet)

Home for a warming winter bath. I measured FF2 in my Eureka-tub and she displaces 42 litres with her lungs full of air. I also had a eureka moment with a new serving dish for eating curry in bed.

I was worried that FF2 might not take to strange sub-continental cuisine but she wolfed it after a first hesitant taste

Nice dogging spot Loops, respecto

Dropping off a box of cheap Thai whiskey at a Government Office wasn't on my list of things I wanted to do today. Awkward as fuck.

Oh do tell.

It was a lovely day for a spot of dogging today so we headed down to the beach where the surf was sparkling in the winter sun.

The path to the dogging spot was nice and quiet being a Friday.

Council parks services had tried to spoil our fun with some new barriers but they did not reckon with the dogged determinedeness of this pair of redoutable dogsters...

After an epic battle along the overgrown dogging path we reached the holy dogging spot... but I was dismayed to find that the communal lightly soiled dogging blanket that is usually here had been misappropriated by a previous entourage.

So we drank in the view anyway

Before heading back down to sea level.

For a snuggle by the rocks.

Upon returning home after dropping FF2 at the station back to Brisbane I discovered that she had left a strategically placed collection of cosmetic accoutrements on my bedroom dresser (including Mike's testosterone-laden Bull-Semen facial youth cream!)

I believe this is the female equivalent of a male dog urinating on its territorial lamp-posts.

Stasher advice Jesus saves.

Perhaps she'll come back for the other arf

Many crabs about there, Looper?


Today I came to Stavanger.

On passing through immigration at Suvarnabhumi I am well used ti either turning left for the A/B/C gates, or right for the D/E/F gates, but never before have I headed straight on for the S gates. I've arrived at the new Satellite Terminal a couple of times recently but never before departed from it. I'm pretty sure the signs for the S gates weren't there a month ago and suspect that this is a very new development.

After catching a train to the Satellite Terminal I wandered around the new swanky complex and was reminded how nice and shiny Swampy looked when it first opened... for about three days. I'm sure it won't be long until tiles become cracked and lift from the floors and fixtures start falling from the walls. Ormaybe I'm over cynical.



'Here I sat, broken hearted,
Pushed and pushed but only farted'

Only I wasn't broken hearted, I was overjoyed at doing my first fart for several days while sitting on the heated seat of this Japanese, Terminal 21-style toilet. My chronic shits finally cleared up yesterday just in time for my long haul flight, which passed (excuse the pun) uneventfully.



The flight departure was slightly delayed, meaning that I had only 45 minutes transfer time at Munich to clear security and pass through immigration to enter Schengen through the crowded 'All Passports' queues (thanks, Brexit) ... not nearly long enough and the gate for my flight to Copenhagen was closing when i finally made it... to be fair matters were made worse as I had to do a speed-shit at Munich because despite being well on the road to recovery, my bowels reacted badly to rushing through the airport and running up the stairways to avoid the crowded escalators. All was good in the end, but I really hate having short connections because I find it slightly stresses me throughout he flights.

Anyway, I finally made it to my hotel overlooking the runway at Stavanger Airport early afternoon today. I'm not getting picked up until 9:15am tomorrow to join the vessel... a result.



I should have gone straight to bed but fancied a couple of pints to make up for a completely dry Bangkok stopover... the danger of booking things up in advance. Well, it was completely dry in the alcohol department but was decidedly wet elsewhere.

FF2 is a rare creature these days with her naturally adorned hirsute muffler so it is a possibility!

Most awesome private plane-spotting hotel-room beer-chair corner ever!

Do tell.

What or who got wet?
