The History Channel, use to be great when it was just History (like when TLC was The Learning Channel and Discover Channel too was about learning too).

Are Anatolian shepherds common in Australia Choppy? They're super rare here. I've only ever met one, and he was a bit tricky, but then I suspect he wasn't having the greatest time trying to cope with living in a city. We've got a fair few Maremmas used for livestock here too. You see the odd one in the city, but again, I think their temperaments are more suited to being out working the farms. I think dogs like them suffer in the city, living boring cramped lives where their self-determination is not allowed to exist in the way it needs to be. There's so many silly human rules for dogs in the city. Walk in a straight line next to the human with your head up. Sit when they tell you to, even if it's a trillion times a day and there is no discernable reason for it. Jeez they put up with a lot from us.

By the way, your greyhounds are beautiful. They look bigger and have thicker coats than ours up here, which is odd, as we're the cold country! Haha. But then most of the greyhounds here are rescues from the US racing industry.

Anyways, good luck in your quest. Be nice if you could find a rescue Anatolian to fit into the existing pack.

Tasmania is freezing!!!!

Its at Gellibrand Hill.

Its a nice spot.

dont they get like the highest rainfall in the state?

If anyone can replicate the taste of a genuine home slaughtered Chicken that I tasted as a kid well kudos to them.

As a guess this Singapore chook will probably taste like modern chicken which of course is a manipulation of white polystyrene.

Part of the texture of meat comes from the fact its made of muscles and they work during the animals lifetime. I wonder how that will translate.

Really?

There is a town called Gellibrand somewhere else, that might be what you are thinking of, but this place is basically right next to Tulla airport. Its pretty dry. Was a good place to take girlfriends at night tho. There is a spot off Mickleham Rd where you could park the car and walk up to the top of the hill to watch planes land at the airport. Sometimes they'd fly straight over the top of us.

How does BBQ chip flavour even remotely taste like BBQ?

They use ground up BBQs?

Apologies for the change in topic.....

Just a quick update on TOD Jr's mate Ben (who, for those that haven't been reading the thread, was coward punched and in a coma). Happily enough it'll also be the last update I provide, mainly due to the remarkable improvement in Ben's condition. TOD Jr saw him a few days ago - he's at home and doing super well. Original plan when he woke up was for him to do 6 months of cognitive rehab but they ditched it and sent him home after just 6 days. Doctors are staggered by the lack of residual issues. Some real Matrix-style bullet dodging on his part. Although if you knew Ben, it sort of tallies. Kid has enough joie de vivre to power 10 human beings. Extremely happy to have him 'back' and in such great health.

Once again, big ups to those who showed an interest in the story and/or offered support.

Sensational news!

Truth
It’s because some marketing guru says that’s wat the flavour is and that’s it

Blue heaven ?

Usually find it a bit hit n miss anyway, only really wait until Foxtel open it up for free (like atm) to watch it

Where does a caged Chook use its muscles? To stand?

 

[koshari]

The History Channel, use to be great when it was just History (like when TLC was The Learning Channel and Discover Channel too was about learning too).

Best thing they did was make the first three seasons of Vikings.
Since then it’s being meh.
The last 10 episodes are dropping on Amazon in the next few hours and then on the HC later.
I still have no idea why Snake_Baker posted the HC Cooky vid?

I had considered this.

Your wife is spot on.

You should get her to post under your username. It will definitely be a win for you.
