Back in the 80s, I found the breakfast style in Greece to be, well, sweet FA as they say in Oz. On Mykonos, though, there was a place that did a proper English breakfast with beans, tomatoes, toast and Marmite, which I have to say I prefer to Vegemite by a smidgen. Spreads easier mainly. Walking home hungover early AM in Athens, trying to spot a taxi and looking for even a pastry was a lost cause. Poor me. I'm sure things are better now, though. Melbourne is one of my top places for food, fantastic.

Although pretty widely traveled, never been to Greece. But, in Germany the bread roll, smallgoods slices and choices of cheese with a coffee at a small standup table remains close to my heart. Seems to sop up the beer from the night before 😉

Breakfast in Malaysia is my favourite 🤩 the cross fusion of cultures makes for a great breakfast.

Scrambled eggs with a hint of flavour that I knew, but couldn’t pick, possibly because I wasn’t expecting garlic to be in scrambled eggs.

From hotels to street stalls, they do a rice side, like sushi without the leaf wrap but I only saw it at breakfast, with bits of egg and crispy bacon shards, crispy dried onion and fresh chilli …… into a dipping sauce, like …… 🤔 a benedict sauce (but not)
😢 Just superb….
 
Heading to my sister's place for my niece's engagement party, I said in the car, no talking about Footballers and strippers in case I offend any sensitive types. For the last 2 hours, we spoke of nothing else. Really interesting to hear from a variably aged bunch of women and blokes discuss this, no holds barred. I have no interest in Ball sports, but this interaction is fascinating to watch.One comment from a woman, if this was orchestrated by a Betting Company how much money would be made destroying this teams ability to win.
 
It doesn't surprise me that a bunch of pissed footballers snorting cocaine in a hotel room with a couple of strippers led to some kind of impropriety. Those idiots should know better than to put themselves in that position. If it turns out that any of those guys are guilty of sexual assault, then I have zero sympathy for them. They deserve whatever public condemnation or legal consequences come their way.
 
Yes, that was the consensus. Some crazy rumours are being reported. It's going to sell a lot of Fish Wrapers for a long while.
 
Too rite Pat…….had plenty of mates tell me about their sons playing at lower level metro, that talcum powder is making a comeback…… & it ain’t blue stratos or ole spice! It’s everywhere!

Those playing sport at elite level, with money & brain cells too burn, are a great target for those dealing in the stuff. ☹️
 
Bathurst is on. Found myself yelling at the TV yesterday, some classic race car support race with cars from the 70’s.

Some ‘expert commentators’ kept calling the Blue V6 Capri a Torana “Arrrrr…. It’s a fucking Capri” 😡 kids these days.
 
One thing you gotta give the VFL bunch. They respect their heritage. With the long-time V8 commentators given the flick and a bunch of cars from the other side of the world, I just dont see the point anymore.
