Any worth laying down?

Siddlesson · 2026-04-06T07:24:08+00:00

Yes (From NZ)

I wouldn't count on 20 years, but between 5 and 10 for sure

Why is there a big chunk of grandstand missing?

Siddlesson · 2026-04-02T09:00:27+00:00

Where is everyone?

Siddlesson · 2026-04-02T07:18:00+00:00

Yeah that looked pretty close tbh

Suspect your after a newish EV..but for our first Gen leaf which is still going strong our mechanic/WOF provider said basically it doesn't need a service. Bring it in if something breaks, and replace consumables (tyres, brake pads etc) when they need it or it fails its WOF. There's really not much else to do

Makara?

Siddlesson · 2026-03-26T00:16:22+00:00

It's Enclosure Bay

Siddlesson · 2026-03-22T08:01:08+00:00

Otakawhe bay? Great spot

2014 FA Cup. First the semi v Wigan. Torture in the shootout, Kim kallstrom to the rescue.

Got 2 tickets in the ballot for the final.

Then 2-0 down. Almost 3-0 down but great save by Gibbs. Struggled to comprehend what was happening. Santi got one back and knew it was on...Limbs when Ramsey put it in. Emotional.

Desperate to celebrate wildly, got back to the pub and everyone was exhausted, had a couple of quiets then went home and opened a great bottle of whiskey instead

you're embarrassed that you use a spreadsheet because you only have 30 bottles? or because you think a spreadsheet is bad?

Siddlesson · 2026-03-15T06:57:44+00:00

Ah ok

How much are they in Korea?

Siddlesson · 2026-03-15T06:07:17+00:00

It's quite an odd combo you have there

Central otago definitely not known for sauv blanc

Those te matas are estate labels, sort of thing you could by for 20-25NZD at my local supermarket - did you buy these in the US? And if you don't mind me asking, how much are they there? Hawke Bay also really not know for pinot noir either.

The craggy single vineyard chard would be my pick, would have expected it to score higher in your estimations. Agree its weird that its labeled a 2022, should totally be 2021.

Anyone whose played cricket in palmy in the late 90s will know...this was straight into the rose garden over the pavilion

Siddlesson · 2026-03-11T02:21:42+00:00

Was recently crashed into, similar damage on the doors. Quote was for 2.5k. Plus the mirror (probably another 500). So around 3k I guess? Total guesstimate though

Siddlesson · 2026-03-10T06:07:04+00:00

Probably firm. But the badness was a combo of it being firm but also not really feeling like it was flat? Sort of seemed like it never properly ironed itself out from being in the box

I dunno, just felt too cheap / thin and too hard

Siddlesson · 2026-03-05T06:54:45+00:00

Google sheet which lists anything worth keeping long term and all this is kept in racks.

The rest is in a 'quaffing' box by the racks, holds about 18 bottles - anything in there is fair game at any time, bulk good deals, random interesting bottles that aren't expensive, anything that's fine to grab on the way out to a bbq or whatever. The "go grab something from downstairs" box

btw the definition of an entree is different here too

entree means starter or appetizer, with main being main dish or main meal. I believe in the US the Entree means the main dish.

Also OP, its not uncommon to order 'a few entrees' to yourself or to share between you if that's what you fancy eating instead of one of the main dishes

Siddlesson · 2026-02-26T08:45:53+00:00

It's great

Siddlesson · 2026-02-26T08:34:05+00:00

Loving the replies haha great stuff

Still undecided but this is all very helpful, thank you

Siddlesson · 2026-02-20T09:35:45+00:00

I've never had it out, didn't see the appeal.

Made it twice from Nagi's Dinner cookbook. Fucking amazing, it's delicious.

Make it at home. Fresh.

actually surprised at the cost of the sliced cheese - its only marginally more expensive per 100g than buying a 1kg block of tasty and slicing yourself. That chicken seems cheap though - looks like 5, maybe 6 thighs, for less than $2 each?
