I hate corriander. Does that rule out Vietnam?

Nope. Not all Vietnamese food has this disgusting green weed.

In most places we went, as I hate the stuff, telling the restaurant to remove it was always obliged.

Vietnam is a must place to visit.

You’re alright, BF.

Absolutely not. Many dishes don’t have it and if it does you can ask for it to be removed. I love the taste of it so no problems for me but know many people who despise the stuff.
My old man is probably the fussiest eater I know and he had no problems eating over there

Per popular demand I was going to throw boomerangs at the Olympics, but there was a guard watching and it’s too soon for me to get thrown out of the archaeological site.

I am in Perth today.

Did flights and hotels on points. Qantas screwed up the booking so I got an upgrade at Crown in Burswood. Once I could have had a party, but I am just an old bloke in a big room.



Nice view of the WACA tonight

Are you boasting? :slightly_smiling_face:

I think the PC way to express that is ‘sharing’.

No, just bored.

Maybe pokies machines instead of breakfast.

If you’re planning Salzburg, the cable car up Untersberg is stunning.

Halfway through my 3 month hiking holiday in Spain. And all I can say it’s much better than being at work in Ballarat.

Just got back from India
Incredible place
Big mistake I made was not taking my Bombers scarf & getting a photo @ Taj Mahal
All photos now in this forum must contain Bombers gear, those pictures @ the bar would look great with a scarf hanging over the edge :grinning: :grinning: :grinning:

Which camino are you walking? Looks like the del Norte.

For those that don’t mind sitting middle seat in Economy you could be in luck. Your ticket goes into a weekly draw to win dozens of prizes such as Platinum membership s, frequent flyer points and even a Virgin cruise from the US with return PE seats.
To kick off the promo every single person in the middle seat on VA219 MEL-ADL were given a cruise valued at nearly $6k

Your hiking over 3 days in just some what Teva sandals?

That’s pretty impressive.

That’s such a nice thing to do. Someone has to take the middle seat.

Well done Virgin.
