Agnes Gold Member Offline fish dinner Posts: 6081 Bedford Park rnd	Are we there yet... Jan 26^th, 2017 at 5:05pm I am counting down the days until summer is gone-it has been a very wet summer here , as a result combined with the heat- humid. January almost down- only 4/5 more official weeks to go And I can't wait. I think SA power might have done some real maitenence on their lines..we haven't had a blackout the last 3 storms !

38 here on Monday....not happy..we have had some rain not near enough though...but the sun is relentless...hopefully overcast tomorrow gives us a bit of relief....

we are poor folks really arent we?.. all we can complain about is the weather being too damn hot.... Roll Eyes

as you say the bush fires have been low this year...and sadly mostly lit on purpose...

I keep asking

what are we coming too? Sad

At firstborns birthday party of about 15 kids a few months ago, I quizzed the kids on what fast food they'd tried. Not a single one had tried KFC. They all called McDonalds McPoopoo.

Looks like Jan/feb is really going to ramp up out here- just to make life difficult. High 30s the next four days and more storms no doubt. The wet and humidity makes an ideal environment for growth and this is summer where we have greenery everywhere, as if it is spring. It is usually burnt off and tinder dry, hot house type conditions.

Well I must agree with you there- it is a bit strange- maybe back then they weren't so health conscious and being a bit porky was not the big no no it is now.

Not too many were porky back then. We had very few fat kids when I went to school, look at them now!

I put on a little bit of pork in my 40's for a few years until I thought, whoah dude, look at yourself! I stopped eating like I was still in my 20's and started moving like I did in my 20's.

Reply #11 - Jan 27^th, 2017 at 10:16pm It would still be an attitude problem-and you might be right- because there was no discernible obesity problem perhaps- But since the advent of KFC et al- porkers everywhere.

Look at a pic of him and now comparatively he doesn't look so fat.
