I don't think so. Did you see Kat's reply to my post on the Aussie Acceptance thread before they closed it? I just hope they stick to their word and lock those other long CLICHEY threads then.
Why on earth would you want that?! :(
That's my big fear now - that they'll close all those similar threads :(
Sure, I disagree with the inconsistancy....but in a way that I'd like our thread to be unlocked like them....NOT them locked like us.
anyway....I'm out of here, before we attract attention :(
Do what Kat has said peeps....spread yourselves around the pit....visit all the forums and threads - I had fun doing that yesterday
If you don't wanna do that, go to LW.....before you get ALL the threads closed for using them to chat
OMG!!!! :eek: Is that one of those Milo's-in-a-can that you are was talking about earlier in the thread????????????
It's a photoshop thing I made of Ed with a tin of Milo. I made that in early 2006 when they announced the Australian tour. I must have been bored or something.

Milo is a powdered chocolate substance added to cold or hot milk.
It is also sprinkled on ice cream and is the base flavour for chocolate bars and energy bars.

Actually I think there is a skipping game here called jumping jacks and one called double dutch too. Those exercises in the the wiki link are what we call star jumps.
I thought the term jumping jack was also used when you play jacks here but I'm having trouble finding a reference to it.

Even better eaten straight outta the tin!!! :eek:
Was my big problem (according to my Ob; ) during my second pregnancy
I remember at school camp once making Milo and chip sammiches.
If you craved it then your body probably needed it, I'm not seeing what the problem is.
LOL!!! That's exactly what I said and quite often say about my different cravings.....if I'm craving it I MUST follow through as it's my bodies way of telling me I'm lacking in something
It just so happened that during my second pregnancy, my body was lacking in MILO and needed to gain 26 kilos :eek: LMAO!!!
Another interesting thing.....during my first pregnancy, my big craving was vegemite sandwiches (or should I say "sanga's' )
It got to the point where I'd walk into work every morning and the lady in the Deli (a few shops down) would walk in with a round for me...LOL! Must've been lacking vitamin B?

meh, it was probably all amniotic fluid and baby anyway!
I reckon Milo was the least of your worries. At least it's got vitamins and minerals, same with the vegemite.
My mum had a thing for rollmops (DON'T ASK **shudders**) and ice cream when I was coming along apparently. eeeewwwwww!!!
Yeah, it would be interesting to see if there are specific things that women crave when pregnant in a cultural sense. IF cravings are specific to local cuisine.

OMG! My hubby loooves rollmops! I must admit - I've never been able to bring myself to trying one
Did your Mum eat the rollmops and icecream seperately or together? :eek:

aaaarggggghhh!!! Aren't they HIDEOUS looking and sounding things? I've been staring at the jars of them in the supermarket my whole life and shuddering and wishing I had the courage to try myself. I'm sure they're a huge delicacy somewhere in the world! I can't believe you even know what I'm talking about. Most people look at me completely mystified when I mention them.
Yeah, I'd be really curious actually, after hearing all about that poutine stuff in that food thread I had going there a while back.
I mean culturally each country will have it's own "junk" food or "fast" food.
I've eaten Rollmops. My friend's Polish mother used to eat them and I've tried a few. They're picked raw herring wrapped around something I think.

Yeah....I was shocked when I saw you post about rollmops. We have a friend that makes them all the time and I kinda assumed it was something that maybe she'd made up ....LOL!

Wow! Home made? That's cool.
Obviously there's a huge culture for them if both you and EK have friends that make them.
I've only ever seen them in the fridge at the supermarket or sometimes at the fish n chip shop.
I've never had the guts to try them ... and then I've been veggie for a long time so have had a good excuse not to for a while ... but my Mum loves rollmops.
So are we strangers now? Like rock and roll and the radio?

Unco!
I just thought of another one while I was making my sunshine thread.
You know, people called Sunshine = "the sun shines out of his arse and his shit don't stink"
Or is that just a Daddism?

Jumping jacks are not a type of jump rope. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jumping_Jack

Yeah, it's pretty cool but the skipping one is better. I just couldn't find it for you. I'll look again later when I have youtube access again.
Glad you got your milo.

Skipping has two meanings here.
There's skipping with a rope and there's skipping along without a rope.
We even have a neon sign, classified by the National Trust to preserve it, of Skipping Girl.
