Gibberings CCXII -- It's all about the length of the pocket clip .....

Nighty night EADD I'm hitting a pre-midnight bedtime.

If you can't be good be safe flowers :)
 
You can cook an omelette? I'm bloody impressed Don ;)

Try a frittata next.

I can make loads of simple dishes, I'm just usually too lazy to do so :p

I'm not sure about the frittata. I generally don't like cheese and don't put it in my omelettes.

You're off to bed and I've only just lost a sickening hangover! Have a pleasant sleep :)
 
My biological parents come from a great dynasty of dairy farmers, fromagers, and snooty Frenchmen that stretches back to the Anglo-Norman invasion of Ireland.

They swiftly sold me for magic beans when I first expressed my dislike of cheese.
 
If I was a greyhound my owner would probably take a shotgun to me

Hamstring, knee and ankle all on same leg. Plus a pain in my back that's either a strain or a kidney infection, coupled with arc eye from some emergency welding and sinus.

I'm blaming all this on no alcohol and cannabis for the past five or so weeks.

Off bushbashing with a GPS in hand tomorrow, so im going to have a nice big cup of harden the fuck up and get some sleep.
 
I'll give you a run for your money Jackal. Be a slow race like. If my body is a temple, as Koneko suggested yesterday, it's more Angkor Wat than Luxor or Stonehenge right now. Feels as old as Stonehenge mind.
 
Good Morning EADD and I hope you all enjoyed the weekend :)

I've started a post Summer diet so started with a healthy breakfast and I haven't had a drink all week :) - going to 'try' and drop about 10kgs before Christmas. Hopefully the temperatures / humidity will drop enough so we can start getting some walking done.

Have a great week

Walking is the best exercise one can do!

I know quite a few athletic blokes by now who love their cycling/running etc... who now at a later age suffer heart rhythmic problems because they pushed themselves too hard when younger.

Yes i prefer walking. Easier on my old knees. There is a lovely coastal walk right where i live. I will post some photos of it as its quite spectacular. Not as spectacular as the Cape Byron lighthouse walk i used to do in Byron where you would regularly see whales, dolphins and sharks but its pretty amazing. I did see a whale breaching 3 times the other day at my local beach. Amazing creatures.

I'd post you some of the pics of the walks I do around here once I've removed the exif data and I've uploaded them anonymously in a couple of weeks time :)
 
Sounds good bear!!!




So, came across this yesterday.

Ahhhhhhh indeed!

I had lost quite a bit of weight earlier in the year but gained a bit during Ramadan, then more when travelling as we were eating out for every meal and drinking every day. They had this great 9% drink - it was supposed to be Lager but tasted like Grapefruit soda, after a day of hiking about the place a few cans of that went down a treat.

I spent a week a couple of months ago staying at a Buddhist retreat in the South West of Western Australia, which is situated on a famous walking track - the Bibbulmun Trail, a 1000km walking trail that goes from my hometown - Perth - down to the bottom of the state. I know people that have hiked the whole thing at once - and others do it in sections, or stages - but i've just gone on meandering hikes along various sections of it over the years - never with the intention of completing the whole trek, but it is a well maintained hiking trail through some beautiful Australian forest.

On my most recent trip, i hiked over 10km each day, after doing morning meditation classes.
The meditative headspace that i started the day with really set me up for amazing solitary walks through the forest - i went there to clear my head, and found it absolutely perfect for that purpose.
It's a beautiful part of the world, and i just love walking in nature, alone with my thoughts - it was really beautiful and gave me some good perspective on some things in life that i needed to work through.
Having the mental - and physical - space to do so, and lots of fresh air and natural beauty around me, felt so mentally and physically cleansing.

I love walking; be it in the city or the countryside - climbing mountains or trekking through forests.
Not really keen on playing sport or 'exercising' for its own sake; let alone going to a gym. i stay plenty fit and healthy enough walking and cycling where i need to get to, where applicable.

Anyway - pictures of walks! The yellow snake symbol in this picture marks the path of the Bibbulmun trail (the snake represents anj important part of indigenous Australian folklore, and guides you through the forest, making it easy to stay on the right path and not get lost. The trail ran straight past the retreat i stayed in, so i could choose to spend the day wandering in either direction and exploring.





So beautiful, especially in winter (i was there in July) - with less risk of bushfire (kinda scary in summer; it gets really hot and dry - a town not too far away got almost entirely incinerated last summer - only one or two houses left standing, i think - and a few people died) as well as a decreased chance of running into a snake (the two most common species are deadly-venomous), because they're hibernating.

These pics don't really do the trail justice, because much of this land is regenerated former cattle-grazing and pine plantation land, but it is being regenerated and full of wildlife and beautiful trees.
Other parts of the trail run through relatively untouched old-growth forests of ancient, enormous eucalyptus trees...but for a city kid like me, it was nice to wander about and see beautiful parrots, finches and all sorts of birds, as well as marsupials i don't see that often at home; kangaroos, possums and bandicoots.

Love a good walk. Speaking of which, i'm going to go for a stroll to buy some groceries. :)
