I don't understand why they are doing these restarts in the middle of the day in the first place. Blizzard does one a week and does it early in the morning where the only people it affects are Polynesian Maori.
At least they're not picking on the Welsh anymore.

Australia? You guys still exist?? I thought you were overrun by giant spiders or something... Blink[/quote]


meh ... they were all eaten by the snakes ages ago[/quote]

snakes, spiders,blue ring octopi, white pointer sharks, box jellyfish, drop bears........... the list goes on (which is why we love euro backpackers, cos they help to feed the wildlife.)

No they just bite the tourists. Australian wildlife shows Darwinism in action..... We even named a State capital after the guy.


The Northern Territory is not a state

So glad that EVE is UTC, bad enough dealing with local daylight saving (and not), at least I don't have to worry about the other side of the planet.

Here I was expecting some chickeny goodness, and it turns out to be the most tasteless thing I've ever had the misfortune of ingesting.

Seriously, what's up with that?

throw in a small amount of stock cube (preferably chicken(grind it up)) some parsley a pinch of pepper and somthing with a bit of spice i.e a pinch of chili.


I... uh...
