Sad news today, RIP Wal. Just posted on FB by Liz. Dearest Wal, You are a dream that took 8 years to manifest. The love of my life, my soul mate and best friend. Yesterday... I watch and hold you as you took your last breath. Thank you for 29 years of loving, fun and a wonderful life together...

Thanks for the heads up Redfin. I have no fear of the cowardly anonymous trolls on the dark web. Everything have said has previously appeared in the media so there is nothing new about it. In the end it is my opinion for what its worth. It looks to me that the detectives have done a good...

RM I spent a number of years working in police internal affairs. Most other forces can't believe how Vic Pol have avoided a Royal Commission over the years. The latest scandals involving deployment of rubber bullets and spraying grandmothers have attracted international attention, none of it...

Looks good to me HP! I'm quite fond of left over curry for breakfast, particularly if it's a hot one.

RM You can bet the detectives have not conducted such an operation without a pretty good idea of what happened, even if they are from VicPol.

Sunday BBQ. Buffalo chicken tenders to start. Ribs about to be wrapped, and then rested and sauced. Since I'm diabetic sauce is low carb. Ribs cooked on the Weber Summit Charcoal. Lump charcol and pecan.

Good advice from Rossco. When you get down to the Gold and black sands I find it helpful to use a backwash with a little side to side shake. You need to practice getting an equal amount of water on each side of the concentrates the top of the pan and applying a gentle side to side motion...

Lips are still tingling two hours later, Silver!

I got Silver's package with some of those 20 year old bird's eye chillis some cup of soup packages and a little jar of mango chutney. He also kindly put in a couple of other items as well as the instructions to make the soup. Here is a pic of the chillis. They are dark and have a strong smell...

Silver, I'd love to give that soup and chilli a go! Here is the small roast lamb for two we had tonight.

Southern fried spicy chicken breast with coleslaw. Crunchy!

Got a nice piece of grass fed ribeye. Made a small roast beef with Yorkshire pudding and gravy for two. Beef was seared and slow roasted to 56c then rested for an hour while I finished everything. It was very tender and delicious.

Veggies were glazed carrots and brocollini on the side, with half a Turkish roll to mop up the sauce.

Pork steaks Charcuterie, a classic French bistro dish with a sauce of wine, cream, mustard and dill pickle. This is seriously delicious.

I'm suffering from serious withdrawal symptoms, so have been once again going over my yard in Goulburn. Plenty of nails, lead washers, corroded toy cars, kids jewellery and the usual detritus you would expect around a house 140 years old. A few good things too, like the rising sun hat badge...

Only two home the other night for the festival of the boot. So I made sausage rolls and smoked pork ribs. Because I'm diabetic I make zero sugar ribs and a low carb glaze. Pretty happy with the smoke ring on the ribs. Coleslaw and jacket potato on the side.

Salmon with dill sauce. Got s good sear on the salmon but the inside was just cooked and juicy.

Cured and cold smoked some bacon and had the breakfast of champions.

For years and years I've been putting up with very dodgy socket sets, an unknown brand 1/2 inch set and a super cheap auto 1/4 inch set in a terrible plastic case. So I bit the bulllet and bought a metric 98 piece set of Sidchrome 1/2 and 1/4 inch sockets. The differerence between these and the...
