Thread: Where did you go today?

Went for a wander round Burleigh heads national park

Stumbled upon a secluded little cliff-top eagles-nest dogging spot complete with lightly soiled blanket

Burleigh is a selfie haven

Interesting to note the anthropological evolutionary divergence in stature between the curvaceous islanders and the skinny asians - both races equally absorbed by their phones while surrounded by beauteous Burleigh

The last time I saw phone torches on the beach was Thais going crabbing on Phuket at night, which was also the first time ever saw a phone torch, about 12 years ago.

Stopped in at my student rental to use the sauna on the way home and almost branded myself with the mark of The Lord. Do not wear metal necklaces in an 80c sauna!

I was trying to oggle this beautiful slinky Asian American student doing her exercises in the gym from inside the sauna through the tiny sauna door window which was getting steamed up more than usual when she obliged and flabergasted me by bringing her weights into the sauna and proceeded to perform her exercises right in front of me about 1 meter away giving me tongue-dangling front row tickets. It was like the opening scene of a porn-movie.

I asked her of she was merkin and she - no, she was from Hawaii. I did not query the small detail that I thought Hawaii was actually part of merka. She was very amiable and smiley, but less than half my age and the porn movie plot did not unfold according to the script in my dreams so I went to cool off in the icy chill outdoor winter pool.

Apparently there's Hawaiians and there's howlies

Should be right up Mao's street.

^^^ Is that a Glory Hole?

^ No, it;s not mate.

Glory Holes are altogether different... I would imagine.

It was probably people like you she was trying to avoid. lol. Dream on I guess.

The long lost Senorita returns from her extended pilgrimage to the land of her ancestors

Let joy be unconfined throughout the land

Meet the new neighbours

Reaquaintances concluded we hit the road for a bike ride

Downhill is a piece of cake

When the going gets tough (3% incline) the tough get off and walk...

Never seen such a large flock of egrets in one place. Some kind of community gathering.

Kangaroos keeping the grass tidy

A visit to the beach sculpture festival today

This eagle and snake are made entirely out of cutlery

Nice details

A beach angel...

Looks like it might be her birthday today!

Pegasus

A shark made out of Ant's Valiant Pacer

Looks like it means business

They light up at night

Geezer blowing his didgeridoo with his old maam

Brush fire under the bridge on the way home added a bit of drama

The Terry57s were out in force

Some nice sculping there.

For sure not made by Queenslanders

A good omen when a black C-130 crosses your path at the start of your day

Looks like someone left the backdoor open


Brazilians had their big speakers at the beach and had a sandy toes dance session going

I was on the Monster after getting beered in the didgeridoo tent last-night

Senorita showed up for our belated 3rd anniversary date (which was actually yesterday but she was working)

Our first date was at the sculpture festival in 2020

They had a double-bass jazz-quartet with rotating vocalists in the didgeridoo tent tonight

It was busy parking so Senorita had shuttled herself to the gig from her truck on her bike

Back home for a splash in the bath and big screen Barbie which Senorita fell asleep during after her long day

Took my $75 Schwinn road rocket for spin

Brazillian chicatitas were not impressed and studiously ignored my mighty steed

This pussy showed more interest

But for some hardcore action it was time to drop by the goat-shed while the neighbours were out to get my bar-tape nibbled

Found a spot with a view of Surfers for my Passion Fruit fizzy rehydrator

Wife and I did a run around the Lampang/ Lamphun area to various ceramic pottery places to pick up some planters for the place. Had a nice lunch, stopped and enjoyed a nice afternoon coffee.

At Edmonton vs Vancouver pre season game. Van leads 1 nil

Mr. "kilograms of physical gold" splurged on the good seats, I see.

It wasn't in the cheapest seats. Showed up a little late with no ticket. I wasn't going to get pricey on short notice. The angle or something seems to be better here compared to Vancouver. Way louder speakers too. Too loud actually

Can still be done 50 rows below cheap charlies seats. But the glass doesn't really hinder your vision, and that's where the body checks happen.

I didn't think you could get tickets on the door.

Do they sell beer? Are fans segregated? Do the fans fight outside?

Do sell pies or is it all hot dogs, corndogs and twinkies?

I didn't even know myself if I could get tickets at the door. Probably just for pre season though. The glass doesn't make much difference. The upper bowl seats seem to offer a better view than they do in Vancouver.

Lots of beer. Between periods I went for a walk and there was beer sales everywhere and lots to eat. A craft beer and a pizza slice was $23 or $17 USD. There are some fights but usually in the playoffs

@Nice pics, Looper. Looks like you spend a lot of time at the beach, lucky you! Your Missus is cute!

Looks like a fun time! Did Van end up winning? Had a laugh at some of Dirk's questions.. are fans segregated? No siree. They don't sell pies or twinkies. Hot dogs, pizza, nachos, hamburgers are a few things I've seen at a few games I went to. Lots of beer for sure!

Had a student tell the class the history of Indigenous people and why we have 'orange shirt day' tomorrow for the National Truth and Reconciliation Day. Every child matters, orange shirt day. He even drew pictures and explained why we celebrate and recognize the special day.

Pray to God in the clouds.
He answers with a beautiful woman.
But she says 'No erection!'
Well, can I go out and kill a chicken to eat it? No.
Boobjob? No.
Use your hand.
Then eat a jellyfish. *F bomb*

Chalkboard! Is Canada stuck in the 70s?!

Looks a welcoming atmosphere, eh.

^^ I would go back to the 70s in a heartbeat... simple times.

There were certainly less genders and the pronouns that one had to use.


I imagine, not actually having existed in the 70's.
