Ohhh ok. I have actually flown on that Thai MD-11 old livery which isfor sale. It is a really good price, even i have been tempted a few times.

<div>
</div><div>It's awesome spotting their 777s coming into melbourne, the whines from those engines sound crazy. The new Thai colours look really nice, always liked that livery.</div>

<div>Hey Mark, that is bloody cold lol. Is that NHL you are watching? I heard that the first ever Aussie is just about to crack the big league now.</div>

Yes it is the NHL. Even though the Leafs are losing it has been a good game so far. One of the coldest days we have had her this winter season.

Yeahthe new liveryis nice, but when it comes to Thai, i am very old school! The purple cheatline, was something. Still remember leaving for Bangkok back in 2005. Checked in at Tullaetc, wondering what aircraft, we were going to fly. Then at the corner of my eye, i spotted the massive tri holer with the thai tail on it. I was over the moon! My mate said, we aint going on that are we? He was packing it lol..

Yes I am a Maple Leafs fan. They have been rebuilding the team since 1967. I don't see them winning the Cup this year.

The home arena is always sold out by corporate seats. So ownership gets a full arena regardless of the quality of the team. Plus we have had bad management in quite a few of those years.They are actually playing much better this year. right now they are in a playoff position. In the past 6 years it's the furthest into the season that they have had a playoff position.

TOP night here guys in Adelaide, perfect for a bbq and a few beers!! temps still hi 20's and its 20 to 9 pn. Damn I wish some of you could be here for it!!! perhaps a few of you might make it down this way in a few years??? would be great to meet in person thats for sure
Hopefully it will happen one day. My life time mate now living in Kent, is slated to do 7 trips at least here to Adelaide, 3-4 trips last year, and 3 at least this year, funny he hadnt been to aussie since he left 29 years ago!!! certainly making up for lost time now!!!

Hell id be busy mate, did cook for 20 or so years ago, 3 bqs simultaneously,man i was running I tell you, towards the end, a couple helped serve, but i handled it ok- god knows how, and still downed a couple tinnies at same time. Talk about flat out!!!
The huge plate bbq, and two tripod bbq, doing chops and snags on two, onion and potatoes on 3rd!!!!was a great night and all enjoyed, the girls helped with the salads and serving. As the night wore on, we went back for seconds, only one barbie and it cleared most of the spare snags we had, a warm night too it was!! a few stayed overnight sleeping in chairs, next morning, we hooked into breakfast, eggs, bacon, sausages, and beers!! 7am, by 11 am we were knackered again, sweet memories of great times
