    It is ANZAC Day tomorrow, April the 25th...not today.

    And what do you think the day and date is at this very moment in Australia and New Zealand?

    [The blinkered small-minded vision of forumites never fails to surprise me.]

    In Australia and New Zealand, it is already April the 25th now...I know.

    I just wanted to make you a bit confused, only for a split-second. If I succeded, you would probably never admit. But at least I did surprise you, I see.... :matte-motes-wink:

     

    I am unsurprised at how stupid forumites are; what astonishes me is their preparedness and propensity to demonstrate it in public.

    I think it's also possible, given Turkey's size and Gallipoli's position, to be in Turkey and still not be within 1000 miles.

    To give our American cousins an idea of scale, Turkey is even bigger than Texas!

    [it reminds me of when I visited a farm in Texas; the rancher boasted to me that he could drive all day and still not leave his land; I replied that unfortunately I had a car like that, too.]

    Recently read a book by an Australian author, mentioned Anzac cookies, so I looked it up. Never heard odmit before then.

    Hmm, if you had chosen Polly as your avatar's first name, Pam, then you would have been Galli, Polly.

    *makes best guess, knowing it's somewhere in Turkey. Checks map scale to actual location*

    Within 300 miles; is there a prize?

    The prize is knowing that you are one of the 1%.

    Or rather, realising that you are not one of the 99%.

    [Note that Athens (Greece) Plovdiv (Bulgaria) and Bucharest (Romania) are all also within 300 miles of Gallipoli; maybe the "close enough" attitude contributed to the failure of the campaign.]

    Galipoli is in Turkey or to be more precise. the European part of Turkey 
    :P
    It's also one of my favorite films ^v^

    You may be one of the 1%. You may not. You may not be able to locate Turkey on an atlas. Most here wouldn't.

    [star Wars is one of my favourite movies, but I still couldn't locate Tatooine using the Hubble.]

    I'm not fussed about the premium bonds, should I ever get anthing, they'll post it anyway.

    By the time you win anything the stamp will cost more than the prize.

    Oh and more dismal news; Top Gear will return, but on NetFlix...

    Still, there is always Dave.

  8. Oh dear, you and Morrisons aren't so bright are you? Even a three year old girl can see that bread looks more like a giraffe!

    PS This site will help with the Premium Bonds.

    PPS You'd do better to cash them in though; the prize fund is linked to Bank Rate, which means that now - and for most of the last decade - there are just two £25 prizes each month. That is worse odds than the lottery, where if you buy a ticket on a Monday you stand more of a chance of dying by Saturday than winning the jackpot.

    PPPS Sainsbury is doing two for one on 1L Latte flavoured ice cream tubs; pour a splash or two of Jamesons over a bowlful and you have a grown up summer version of an Irish Coffee.

    Well, the admins where I am have better things to do. I create clothes, the GM does weapons, for instance. All of us hate wading through the logs, especially if there's been fighting, when we have a call on a rule break. Wasting my valuable time reading open chat logs....ummmmmm,....only if you pay me a good sum....daily.

    I have RL too. Ya know... stuff like cooking, cleaning, and my crafing...yes, I'm an avid knitter. Working on this beautifly lace scarf right now, that I'm sure you don't want to hear about....

    Your post does nothing to negate the validity of mine.

  10. What a ridiculous question. Next you'll be asking if Thanksgiving happens on the fourth Thursday in November because in the week before lots of families buy turkeys and make travel arrangements.

    There is a difference between causation and correlation.

    And causation can be time-retrospective.
