  1. After coming back home to the UK for our epic Alps trip, I’m now back in Brisbane Australia since the end of September, so we had a little outing this afternoon to a place/event called “Eat street market “
    It’s on the riverbank just outside central Brisbane itself..
    From the outside it looks like a shipping container city, but inside there are so many food stalls from all around the world you can get an amazing variety of different dishes,..none of them for the diet conscious and plenty of sugary-shite on offer as well :scream:
    Just a random selection of pics and I’ve tried to include as many food ones as I can for @Multirider75 as I know he likes a good nosebag :D;)

    These “Slinky’s “ were interesting,..basically the guy with the electric drill drives a potato on a skewer through a steel slicer that makes the potato into a spiral, dip it in seasoned batter and fry it and voila!…a heart attack on a stick :joy::joy:

    Another one I’d never heard of,..” Ponuts”.. a popcorn/doughnut hybrid,…zero calories in them apparently :yum

    Bit of a dilemma here :thinkingface:..do I hit Shuck all oyster bar, or the Salty sailor seafood???


    D81D4279-E27E-4928-AA41-52CA70BEE1D6.jpeg

    Salty sailor for some Moreton Bay bugs and sweet potato fries! :yum Nom-nom, mmmmm!
    Shortly followed by a large Cappuccino and a massive salted caramel doughnut,…….feel a bit sick now :confounded:!

    Fancy a roasted Kangaroo knee cap anyone?? :dizzy:

    A great couple of hours out for the family and a really buzzing atmosphere with a live band on :upyeah: my two grandsons ( 5 and 2 years) managed to eat their own body weight in Calamari, chips, ice cream, and somehow managed to keep it all down :joy:,..laters people :upyeah:

  3. Went to a party in Blackpool. Stayed over. Will never return.

    Hotel room was disgusting, but no alternatives available so will shame the place on social media and hope for a refund.

  10. You must have like a bionic eye for spotting bins Viv :thinkingface:???

    I thought “ Bins, bins..what’s she on about,..can’t see any bins??”
    But sure enough, if you blow the pictures up big enough you can spot some in the background :bucktooth:!

    Your like one of those “ prove your not a robot” photo grid thingies..

    Please check all boxes with a bin in it ..:joy::joy:

  18. Today I did some decorating, which is not at all interesting, but my good friend, Sandy, recently finished a rebuild of his 1947 Triumph T100 - 500cc parallel twin. He fired it up today, it’s 75th birthday.

  19. Not a lot, as is the plan for the rest of the day.
    Tried to get the bins in shot for @Ducbird, but the place is a bit posh…
