nettak Even a bad day on the golf course is a whole heap better than a day at work! 
My mates car was insured but it's the hassle of things that really gets you mad.
Being Easter weekend he can't get the bits he needs to fix things up.

It sucks big time if you ask me.
Even when you have an insurance claim, you are at the mercy of the repairer and they seem to take there own sweet time.
One of our trucks is off the road, it is in being repaired and we have been waiting for them to let us know that it is ready. But we do not hold our breath. The thing that really cheeses me off is that the repairer is a client of ours and when he wants his product he will expect it straight away. I think I will tell him we have had a hold up on parts for the splitter and make him wait. LOL

nettak That's deceitful and naughty.
Two wrongs don't make a right.
Not unless you can get away with it!

Where's mouse? I hope she's not down at the liquor store buying me that malt whisky.
Any time this week would have been fine!

nettak, We've got a shop here in town that makes sinful food.
They will make you cakes and things in any body part you want. They also use loads of whipped cream and cherries where needed!

Well Bob did you notice the way she just slipped back in to the thread as if she had not been away at all.
Now what could little Mouse have been doing. LOL
Yes Mouse I did see that one as well, and I really liked both of those movies.

We have a shop up here that does that as well, but now that I think about it, I can't remember the last time we went to a party where they had one of those cakes.
They are yummy and soooooooooo much fun. Male body parts are my favourite of course.

It just so happens I have some SAO biscuits right next to me! We do have something very similar here. I think we call them Engligh water crackers, or something like that. How about some soft chocolate chip cookies?

Mouse are your sao's square like ours? Our water crackers are usually small and round and fairly thin as well. They are plain tasting and you usually need to put something with them. We eat sao biscuits with vegemite, yummy. LOL We also have them with tomato and cheese, but you can have them with just about anything I guess.

What do you mean by soft chocolate chip cookies, are they meant to be soft or are they stale? LOL
I don't know how your biscuits are textured, ours are all crisp and firm unless they are stale.

Ours aren't called sao's, just water crackers. But they taste very much the same. Yes, ours are usually round, but I've seen other shapes too. And they're a bit thinner than your sao's.

Most of our cookies bought in the store are crisp too. But the homemade ones are soft and chewy, unless they've been sitting out for a couple of days!  So the new thing over here is the cookie manufacturers started making soft cookies you can buy in the store. Pretty soon no one will have to cook anything  LOL

Isn't that funny, you say that the cookies are soft and chewy when fresh (the homemade type) and ours are usually crisp when first made, they only go soft when they are stale, or at least that is how we see it. LOL
