    I measured a wall wrongly in my new build design and may not be able to fit full bedside tables

    And I don't like it that Americans call bedside tables "night stands". What - they don't sleep during the day?

    I can appreciate having a fire station 500 mts from home should my house ever catch fire and the ambulance centre behind it should either of us ever have a heart attack. However at 6 am on a Saturday, they shouldn't need to have their sirens going to get through any non-existent traffic down on the main road.

    If the three sets of sirens within ten minutes were instead police cars pulling over hoons in defective cars, then it's Game On.

    I thought woolies was having a dispute with Arnotts. Remember reading about it somewhere.

    Arnott's and Coles in stoush over biscuit prices

    Then found after several months that Tim Tams are now in the chocolate aisle of my local woolies.

    I think the supermarkets contended that they Ar Nott biscuits :p

    The Twinings "Green" Tea and the "Peppermint" tea boxes are the same colour. You can't just pick them up and get the right one without really looking at the box.

    No! Green tea and peppermint are completely for different purposes... Green tea is for calming, peppermint is invigorating.

    I decided to call CBA on a home loan rate query (The rate they applied is a lot more than they said to me last week) and I haven't gotten through to talk to anybody for more than 10 minutes! I think I'll give up for today. There's no hold wait time etas. :(

    Oh, and the weather outside has turned :(

    Thought I'd give an update... waited nearly half an hour and there was still nobody to talk with. I hung up.

    There are times when I drink green tea and ... No, I lie. There are never times when I drink green tea.

    I live by the rule that if the tea or many other foods have turned green, then I won't touch it.

    Obviously not a golden rule then. A green rule.

    FWP... When you're binge watching a new series, and after 12 hours of watching waiting for the last episode... Five minutes before it ends you realise it's not resolving. Sure enough, To Be Continued.
