So you dont have pot noodle in Australia?

 

[elm0]

Not sure, maybe we have a different name for it? Or maybe I'm just oblivious *shrug*

(aka 2-minute noodles, to the best of my knowledge...)

 

[elm0]

Ah yes, instant noodles. I stocked the aisle containing noodles in a big supermarket for about 2 years. We have many different brands, but I don't remember ever seeing Pot Noodle.

This evening we have the annual PCC (elders) meeting with the divisional commander. I have never been to one before. No idea what to expect. It surely has been a crazy year!

Got a meeting with my minister tonight about my ministry for the year (ie, I think it's a 'what is it' discussion)...

Our minister is a firm believer that if you bring a 'lack' you see in the church to his attention, he will see if you're willing to do it. Well, smart me answered the question 'what would you like to see taught this year' with 'how to have a healthy relationship - especially for youth'... needless to say, I'm thinking he's going to ask me to lead it!

Ahh well... one day I'll learn!

Hmmm...well I'm on nights and at midnight I get a double whammy. I have to come to terms with new port security legislation and the new computer software the boffins promised us hasn't arrived yet because it doesn't work, so I have to cope with ther changes with the pld software, which also doesn't work (well most of the time).

This could be a loooooong night.

One of those earth shattering revelations has just come my way a few minutes ago.


Here I am, born and bred in the City of Hull, talking daily with half the population of Brisbane, and guess which subject has totally not been talked about at all ? One which is dear to the hearts of residents of both towns.


Any guesses ?

Here's a clue, think Bronco's

football

 

[Andy Broadley]

Not quite....

 

[someone_else]

bucking broncos? lol

 

[Andy Broadley]

Ellllllllmmmmmmm00000000

Tell 'em what the connection between the word Bronco's and the word Brisbane is......(and it's not the letter B either!!)

 

[elm0]

Here's a clue, think Bronco's

Both cities have wild horses roaming the hills?

Well, smart me answered the question 'what would you like to see taught this year' with 'how to have a healthy relationship - especially for youth'... needless to say, I'm thinking he's going to ask me to lead it!

Well smart you just needs to say "I was wanting to hear other people teaching about healthy relationships, so I can learn more."

hehe

Brisbane Broncos and Hull Horses

 

[elm0]

Actually ABC Radio has a sports presenter named Quentin Hull based in Brisbane.....

 

[Andy Broadley]

Hull FC actually.

I take it from the way this is going that the chances of us having a Cyber Corps virtual Rugby league team are pretty slim.

I thought all you Aussies were nuts about the game.

 

[elm0]

If you think Aussies are nuts about Rugby, what does that make South Africans?

I was born in South Africa, started my schooling there too. I had a few incidents with teachers telling me I had to play in the school teams for cricket and rugby, turned me off both games almost completely. I ended up on the school tennis team, because it was the one sport that I didn't feel pressured to be involved in.

 

[Andy Broadley]

Just nuts - period

Anyway they play the wrong sort of Rugby.
