** Midday, Saturday 9 March 2013, going until late.

.

• For all memberss of the SSSF Science and Pie-making Society, be they Holidayers or PSFers.

• Spockie is making pie for Dropbear – she’ll tell you more about that…

• I’ll be making dinner. Expect it to be moderately spicy.

• BYOG and/or soft drinks and some nibbles.

• I’ll have plastic containers of ice to ensure your favourite tipple is appropriately cold.

• I’ll be making some nibbles that’ll substitute for a late lunch.

• If you drink alcohol, please don’t drive away. Make alternative arrangements.

• For directions email me (sssfmv at the place of hot males).

.

Mrs V and I would like to make this a fantastic occasion, so please – all Brisbanites and others in the region, plan to make this happen.

.

Count me in, bwana. (Also I’ll be dragging Mr Mutant along. He should be used to moderately spicy food by then :p )

I would if I could, but I can’t, so I won’t.

I so want to see Droopy eat a Spocky pie :)

Parrot Pie served with Rosella sauce ;)

How many pies can you make from one Spocky?

That’s a bummer kii. I was hoping you’d come.

:-)~

Excellent, DA. Then there are 6 people at least. Mr and Mrs V. DA and Mr Mutant. Spockie and Bill-o-many-names.

Does eating these pies make you Droopy? don’t think there would be too many males wanting to eat one of these pies,, not even Droppy!

Divine Angel said:

The Pope (says he’s not well enough – according to PWM).

Ok, hypothetically, if I were to show up, would it be best to come in the afternoon, or evening?
I don’t want to show up at 7pm and find everyone’s gone home.

If I can make it.

So you want doughnuts then?

(I know that’s the only reason I get invited to these shindigs)

Turn up at midday, and catch a taxi home late in the evening.

:-)~

(As yet, I have no indication about when people are going to turn up. In the past, most have arrived in the first couple of hours, and it starts tapering off mid-evening. I’ll cook some type of dinner.)

i was thinking of bringing some donuts from a place not far from me, but the sales chick is a bit surly sometimes.

I don’t know, DA. Whatever you reckon. Chips, corn chips, lollies, nuts, chilli dried shrimp, biscuits, dips, doughnuts, dried fruit medley. Nibbles in general. Whatever you’d like, really.

Bombay duck is usually unpopular with everyone. maybe I’ll bring some to be contrary :)

why the dickens would I bring dried chilli shrimp?

Oh, I don’t know, John. I could include salt fish in a curry.

Michael V said:

Oh, I don’t know, John. I could include salt fish in a curry.

You actually know what it is? I have been known to order it at Indian restaurants to upset fellow diners with its pungent rotten fish smell :)

Divine Angel said:

Because I love them, but haven’t been able to buy them in Australia.

What the dickens is Bombay duck?

I’m not sure I would eat it straight from a packet, but fermented fish do add a nice earthy flavour to curry.

Divine Angel said:

What the dickens is Bombay duck?

The Bombay duck or bummalo (Harpadon nehereus, Bengali: bamaloh or loytta, Gujarati: bumla, Marathi: bombil: Bombeli, Sinhala) is, despite its name, not a duck but a lizardfish. ………………………….. The fish is often dried and salted before it is consumed, as its meat does not have a distinctive taste of its own. After drying, the odour of the fish is extremely powerful, and it is usually transported in air-tight containers

Divine Angel said:

Like Maldives Fish, but bigger.

.

Can’t be worse than that European dish of rotting fish.

Imagine a giant anchovy, left out in the sun for a week or so, and then, err, that’s it really.

I honestly don’t know. I used to eat them in Jamaica, and they were produced there. Came in a plastic packet like lollies. The shrimps really were tiny. Three or four millimetres across the whole thing when curled up.

But yummo! :)

If you find some, I’d be very appreciative.

.

Divine Angel said:

I’ll probably get some more salt fish (likely Maldives Fish, not Bombay Duck) in the next week or so. I’ll introduce you to their smell, if you remind me, DA.

No thankyou.

I will be there at lunchtime.

I am looking forward to it.

Update:

PJ : probable attendant.

If we hadn’t just bought a house we would have flown down for the occasion…. But alas :(

I’m sure it will be a fun time :)

I may be bringing a +1, my cousin will be in town.

Um. I did a shout out for Woodie, but didn’t email. Mrs V’s been corresponding with him, and I forgot to ask her to ask him. I doubt he has any (he didn’t last time I saw him) and I don’t think Milton’s son-in-law’s mate has passed out more of the rat poison.

Maybe I won’t be chatting to you dissidents while I’m in China…..

Amnesty International notes that China “has the largest recorded number of imprisoned journalists and cyber-dissidents in the world.” The offences of which they are accused include communicating with groups abroad, signing online petitions, and calling for reform and an end to corruption. The escalation of the government’s effort to neutralize critical online opinion comes after a series of large anti-Japanese, anti-pollution, anti-corruption protests, and ethnic riots, many of which were organized or publicized using instant messaging services, chat rooms, and text messages. The size of the Internet police is rumored at more than 30,000

Batman-lookalike who turned in suspect to police is really a take-away delivery driver

Stan Worby, 39, has been revealed as the man who delivered a suspect to a Bradford police station dressed as the Caped Crusader. Supplied

THE CAPED Crusader who turned a suspect into British police dressed as Batman has been unmasked as a Chinese take-away delivery driver.
Access all Areas. $1 for the first 28 days. Only $2.95 a week thereafter. Learn more.

The superhero has been named by Britain’s Daily Telegraph newspaper as 39 year-old Chinese take-away delivery driver Stan Worby who is a mate of the suspect Danny Frayne.

Police had been regularly contacting Mr Frayne’s family and friends in an effort to get their help in persuading him to turn himself in as there had been a warrant out for his arrest.

Mr Worby wore Batman’s traditional mask, body suit and cape and walked into the Trafalgar House police station in Bradford in the early hours of Monday 25 February with Mr Frayne. Mr Worby then turned in Mr Frayne – who faces allegations of burglary, fraud and breaching a court order- to the local police.

Football-mad Mr Worby had put on the Batman costume and travelled to Wembely stadium in London to watch Bradford City’s final cup match against Swansea.

He then got a call from his friend asking him if he could take him to the local police station where he was wanted for questioning. He picked his mate up in a minibus at 1:30am and took him to the station, after he got home from the game.

“I’d had a lot to drink and it was a great day out – I got some strange looks when I got to the cop station though. One policeman looked at me and just laughed,” he told The Telegraph.

I was attempting to sort my calender out so I could make an appearance. Unfortunately, my hairdresser refuses to budge, so I have to offer my apologies.

Normally I’m into cross country hills but at present I’m requiring flat running, a slight rise is ok but I need to run for an hour. I was looking at google maps around your area and it ‘appears’ to be flat going? If it isn’t is there a place close by where I could head without getting lost.

I’m excited, too, SL and Spockie. Nearly got the house clean now. Yard is difficult, what with all the water dribbling out of and through it.

SL, you might be able to go to the city and use the Botanic Gardens and walkways around the river, where there is little local relief.

The light rail plan one of the political parties is promising to build at the State election isn’t much more than a glorified tram. Seems they’re coming back in fashion.

.

The nearest railway station is Yeerongpilly, a bit over 2 km away. I know little about the Brisbane train network, though I think you may have to change trains somewhere. When I worked in the city, I took the bus.

We can give directions if you want to walk, or we could call a cab to get you to the station. Neither Mrs V nor I have any intentions of driving anywhere, after the first ale at midday. There may be teetotallers or people who have not had a drink who could drop you there. I’m unsure who that might be, but you can ask. Anyway, the fare for a short cab ride shouldn’t break the bank…

fair enough.. i might just be the sober one of the bunch then ;)

Dropbear said:

One of either DA or Mr Mutant is likely to be the designated driver. There may be others, too. Worst to worst, we have three spare thermarests, a couple of sleeping bags, some blankets and a floor. Sunday one of several of us will be able to drop you at the station.

Oh Dropbear, we don’t do a bad breakfast ( at gentleman’s hours), but you would need to bring a pillow if you intend to stay and want a pillow. All our pillows are spoken for.

So what type of pie did Dropbear Request?

He mentioned two. A curry pie or a chicken vegetable pie. I can’t remember which one he decided on. It was on the other forum, which no longer exists.

No one bring chocolate. I have it covered.

And if Bear needs a lift to the station, there’s room in the Mutant car.

I think he wanted both, but I’m not sure a decision was made.

careful Pete, them longnecks each have 6+ standard drinks in ‘em.

I remember when there were no stubbies or cans of beer, it was all longnecks.
There was a big industry built around recycling longnecks, they had bottleos who freelanced collecting them, I knew a bottleo, big hairy bloke, little or no education, never saw him with shoes on but he made a good living for himself and his family from beer bottles.

Your stirring was duly noted, but deemed unworthy of a formal response.

Pud has an air of awesomeness. Would loved to have stayed longer, but that would have meant imbibing strong beer and eventually kipping on the floor and I’m too old for that now. KJW arrived just as I was leaving. Pie was etten.

>>Pie was etten

Et tu, Brute?

Et one big slice

Too right, fsm.

If that tastes like chicken, then yes.

Peak Warming Man brought prawns. Lovely.

Rat Poison has been opened, and some consumed. DA threw back a full shsot! She says her lips are still burning, an hour later. Dropbear had tears in his eyes, but took it like a man.

Monkey skipper doesn’t like odd numbers, and Spider lily likes to be on top!

Attendees?

What was the “rat poison” that DA was sipping?

If it was like the last lot, it’s NE-NSW hooch that’s had chilli infusing.

It nearly made me vomit, but not from the EtOH content (I kept up with Woodie, except for the rat poison, with no hang-over ).

kii said:

Home made chilli vodka. Have a new found respect for DA for not only giving it a go, but for also not dying.

Mmmm…chilli infused rat poison.

Speaking of that – I’d better go open the new bottle of wine and cook dinner.
