Just one quick bitch ...

Yes, DirtDawg, age and experience work wonders.  So much that I would have made into an international incident in my youth, doesn't even cause me to raise an eyebrow.  I find more serenity and hope in life as I grow older, although I admit I still have my moments. 

Thanks for this thread and wishes for your continued happiness in the future and posting on other threads here.

I bought a new monitor (little hooray). But now I have the biggest headache from the brightness and adjusting the settings .

Hope the headache is gone by the time you read this. Enjoy your new monitor.

Thanks. I had a nap for the headache. I think it might take me a while for my eyes to adjust to things.

That's no good. There is a bad joke in there about penises...but I'll save it til you get rid of the virus.

I know viagra is used for erectile dysfunction, but sometimes it's prescribed for a condition in pregnancy to keep the pregnancy going (I'll spare the details).  Can you imagine being a female getting 30 viagra pills a month for 8 or so months?  If you lived in a small town I imagine the gossip birdies would be in full chorus with all sorts of scandalous lyrics.

My bitch is that a food and wine event that used to be free and fantastic is now a ticketed event...and freaking expensive.

No more free and ... sorry to hear that. Who used to sponsor it?

Really can't remember, but when it started, I think about 5 years ago, it was a free event at the Convention Centre....you could float around, taste wines, condiments, cheese, food, at every stand. I got to take my daughter to see cooking sessions with well known Australian chefs, and up and coming chefs. I don't even think the website was more than a couple of pages, not much info and it was very unknown.

It's a money making machine now.

Now it's like presale tickets are now online just for entry, plus on top of entry fee any sessions (only 30mins) with celebrity chefs are around $30 each. That's presale visa price, so they will be actually more than that when the whole lot of tickets are released.

I think it would be hard for any of the genuinely small, boutique food and wine suppliers that used to be there to be able to afford a stand there nowadays.
