An eye mask and ear plugs are essential tools for my flight sleep.

I too hang at the back of the plane. I too have a long haul in the coming weeks. I'll be disappointed if I don't get an unbroken 6 hours at some point and a total of 9 hours. I'll report back.

I was skiing with a couple at Mammoth a number of years ago and the lady was 'stuck' stationary on a slope that was or nears Dave's Run. The lady was a long way behind back up the slope so I expressed my concern to the fellow *cough cough* and he replied (I'm paraphrasing) "I've worked out that...

The Hitler parodies are comedy gold generally but that one. 🤣🤣🤣 “Lindsay Graham jerks off to war footage”.

I’ve deliberately left this thread alone for fear of offending but just something light hearted that I found amusing.

I have been playing semi regular golf recently. As usual I am consistently inconsistent. A brilliant shot is often followed by an atrocious shot. But a golf course is such a nice place to be. Yesterday from Bribie Island about 40 minutes north of my house. Been playing @jamesdeluxe ?

I don’t think I’ve posted much about Thredbo but I’ve got enough pics to put something together I think.

I figured I’d post one that few others on here would not have seen. From 2016.

I collect souvenir beer glasses. I have very few plain ones.

Interesting. My beer glasses are washed with boiling water only. Perhaps a myth but my now passed father-in-law told me decades ago that detergent makes the beer go flat. All the graphics are in top shape. That being said I only use them twice a week and I have over 100 so they get little use...

Australia is a tiny market but it shows that BYD is making its mark.

I’m familiar with the term and sometimes use it without consciously thinking about baseball. The business I work in sponsors the local baseball club. Pine Rivers Rapids. I go watch a game a couple of times a year. I have never played the game as my thing was cricket as a youngster. My cricketing...

I was thinking mum, dad and three kids.

^^ Very cool. You need one of those beer glasses.

Will DJT back down on the power plant threat?

The history of a ski location holds a lot of weight. There are plenty of golf courses as good or better than St Andrews or Augusta but legends just are.

I don’t know. I don’t watch the ski racing. I guess it’s not as easy to mock up a ski brand as it is a cricket bat.

My flight has been cancelled. Iran lobbing drones and missiles at the airport. I couldn’t get any other flights through Hong Kong or Singapore. I’ve booked for June but will be taking hiking shoes instead of skis. It’s yet to be determined if there will be enough avgas for me to get there that...

^^^^ Sorry about the minor thread drift but I’m wondering if the pro snow athletes really use the skis/boards from the manufacturers that they are sponsored by? I know the cricketers sometimes appear to be using a Gray Nicholls bat for example but it’s really a Gunn and Moore with Gray Nicholls...

His skis might need a wax after that. Edit. Snap. Tony beat me to it.
