Rare MicCanberra Posted March 1, 2020 #2653 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Interesting article, I haven't tried any of these pies but may try the Bryant's one next time I am in Goulburn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare lyndarra Posted March 1, 2020 #2654 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Please, no more talk of pies until tomorrow night as I'm restricted to clear fluids until then. 😮 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not doing it for religious reasons but for health reasons, too many cruises means the salt air is bloating me or shrinking my clothes, something has to give and I don't want to buy new clothes. So cutting out some of my favourite but fattening food items is one way I can do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So cutting out some of my favourite but fattening food items is one way I can do that. I can sympathise. I came off my last cruise the heaviest I have ever been at almost 88kg. At 6'1" it may not seem a lot but it, the fat, is accumulating in the wrong place - visceral - and that's not good. I don't burn enough calories while cruising.

That is my problem too apart from over indulging while cruising. The smoke and the heat has also put any usual post Xmas extra exercise at bay, so that didn't help at all.

The smoke and the heat has also put any usual post Xmas extra exercise at bay, so that didn't help at all. I can't blame cruising this time, as haven't been on one for over a year. But yes, smoke & heat have curtailed my exercise routines over the summer. So a few kilos to lose. I suggest we have a challenge for all our local cc family on here to make a special effort over the lent period (not for religious reasons) to exercise more, and get back to our 'regular' playing weights, for the good of our health. Now I will have a 10N cruise in that time, but am determined to lose at least 5kg before I return to work on Apr 14 (even with Easter eggs & buns tempting me. 🙂 I will have a weigh-in tonight & then the goal will be set.

Time to go shopping at Aldi for supplies. I got back from the hospital this morning and found I had no pies to have with my chips for lunch. So lunch was chips and squid rings, sans pie.

Don't forget the toilet rolls, supplies are dwindling due to panic buying. All that healthy food above makes toilet rolls essential.🤣 Woollies is rationing the aforesaid articles. Please, no toilet roll thread, that would be worse than the 'Princess pat of butter thread.' Just to remind you..

I haven't heard about that one. Coronavirus is known to cause some diarrhoea but I think the panic buying is more the fear of being put into some kind of lock down and running out of toilet paper. It makes you realise just how dependent we have become on a simple roll of tissues😂. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is an alternative, invented by those clever Japanese people: the bidet toilet seat with multiple wash functions and also a dryer. No TP required. ☺️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just ask for some wrapped butter and the waiter would bring a plate of it, non problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
