Members Ssnake Posted May 31, 2017 Author Members Share Posted May 31, 2017 Good idea. I'll ring up Bagram Airbase to see if they can set up a sweat shop with metal works. Hm. The operator couldn't put me through. I'll keep trying. Edited on 31 May 2017, 07:31 by Ssnake The connection is very bad, and getting progressively worse. In fact, it's so bad at times, whenever I call them, as if someone hammered the mute button on the phone. Edited on 31 May 2017, 08:43 by Ssnake I don't understand this. I kept trying. I could swear I heard the operator yell at me to stop calling, but now the line seems to be dead. I hope they are all okay. Maybe I should give them one more call.

Furia Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 Hi Nike-Ajax, just out of curiosity, what is this about "Masculine Melange" that you mention twice on your posts? Never heard about a Masculine or Femenine variant of Melange. (or who knows whatever other new sex gender versions being invented lately) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nike-Ajax Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 (edited) Just messing with you - not meant to be taken seriously. I was childishly and in good humour implying that Melange isnt as masculine as a cup of black coffee ... Which I dont actually really mean - Hence I have no meaningful answer to your question Disregard if not funny ...

Now THAT would have been more esoteric and fun.

Brilliant - I used to have a beer glass like that that I could put in the freezer and would cool 2 standard beers (33 cl) in minutes if not seconds. And It had a silicone handle wrap so it did not freezeburn your hand ... But the wife decided that WE did not need it anymore and that it took up entirely too much room in the freezer ... not all battles are worth fighting and not all wars worth winning ... So next time I will buy TWO and tell her its a couples thing ... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
