Yep, up the Anderson hill.

Incidentally, those who do it in reverse are shooting themselves in the foot anyway, IMO- in reverse, there's a lot of gradual uphill. Gradual but constant uphill kills you every bit as much, if not more so, than one steep but relatively short uphill.

Yeah, so I've read... I guess some people like to change it up too. I'll probably do one lap to see my times and then do two laps a few times too!

Agree - that's how I used to run it.

I've deduced from a couple of days of swiping on Tinder that there's a lot of attractive Essendon supporting females.

I just had a ride in a VF GTS. 6.2L. Supercharged. 430kw.

Holy. Shit.

Is that a V8? V10? V12?

6.2L is a stupidly big engine, though. As is 430kw.

How amazing is the sound coming from the first two gears at 5000 RPM+?!

Mental engine, shame about the gearbox really

V8. There's probably better vids but..



Skip to 1.40 for the best bits.

The acceleration was insane. It was like a freakin spaceship inside too. On road for just a tad over 100k.

Had curry at an Indian restaurant last night.

Was delicious and I don't have find poisoning or anything of the sort- but I've still eaten precisely nothing today.

It does have that knack of making you feel extraordinarily full and also destroying your appetite the next day.

Really? Can't say I've ever been like that with Indian food. I absolutely love the stuff but wake up in the morning just as hungry as ever and proceed to eat as per normal. I LOVE Saag Lamb, the sauce is made out of pureed spinach which may put some people off, but although it is green in colour it doesn't taste like spinach, it just tastes like awesome.

I had goat Vindaloo the other night. Ordered 'hot', too.

Yeowza.

 

[Howard Moon]

i get so addicted to the vindaloo taste i cant order anything else. Like i know some people might say what taste? its just hot.. but its not just like that.. that bitter spicy taste ..best! the sweats, being curry stoned, all part of the fun.

but the next day.... not always ideal. Last time i had one i played golf the next day, biiiig mistake.

 

[Beerfish]

Beef Patiya has a similar taste to Vindaloo in the vinegary sense but isn't quite as **** off hot. I prefer it for this reason.

 

[Howard Moon]

i reckon half the time id be happy with 5 garlic naans and a bowl of vindaloo sauce to dip them in.. who needs meat?

 

[Beerfish]

Naan bread has sent me over the edge before.

 

[Howard Moon]

i guess when you pack in the naan and all that rice then drink a beer and it all expands, nothing worse then lying back on the couch post curry like homer simpson with your stomach so full it hurts

 

[Doss]

Garlic naan is exponentially more lethal than plain naan, too.

 

[Pweter]

my favourite way to end an Indian meal is to save some naan, then once everyone has eaten all the meat so only curry sauce remains, load the naan up with sauce on top such that it must be eaten with a knife and fork.

Drooling just thinking about all of this.

When I build my own house one day, I plan on having a clay tandoor included.

Man, the plans I had before we built our house. A shame money removed almost all of them.

Cellar
Underground rain water
Solar

Thankfully other items don't require a building license and when the kids need to earn their pocket money (slave labour) and think dad is dork and don't want me to play, then I can look at stuff like the wood fired pizza oven and I hadn't thought of a tandoor oven but there's an idea.

 

[Doss]

A cellar would be high on my list, too.

Maybe a little Scotch distillery under that, too.
