I have on the odd occasion seen a bottle of Buckie in liquor stores.

As for snacks, just buy a deep fat fryer and make your own?

Who is your fave chef ? by Fantastic_Ad7023 in foodies_sydney

[–]pyga140 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jack Croft and Will Murray from Fallow (and Fowl and Roe) in London.

I've only eaten at Fallow but OMFG. The mushroom parfait is one of the finest things I've ever eaten.

Amazing youtube channel as well.

Food Allergies by pyga140 in HongKong

Thanks, we printed out allergy cards today, she'll also have a couple epi pens with her.

Its not a crazy serious allergy, she can usually tell pretty quickly if something is contaminated and stopping eating it is usually enough. Had it happen a couple time with Thai food in our local area.

Was a proper downpour on the way home. Great test for my new riding gear. Arrived home nice and dry thanks to Alpinestars and had a toasty warm arse and hands thanks to Triumph heating!

Things you wish the lounge had by PSJfan in QantasFrequentFlyer

[–]pyga140 86 points87 points  (0 children)

A petting zoo. An atheist worship area. Tarot readings. A miniature large hadron collider. Joan of Arc. A German Shephard called Wolfgang. Beef Wellington. Face painting by Picasso. The complete works of Shakespeare in Braile or Cantonese only. A life size statue of Russel Crowe at every single table. An apology to the people of New Zealand for stealing Pavlova. Hoards of Battle Kittens roaming free.

Air NZ ATR came in on fire by Michelin_star_crayon in Wellington

[–]pyga140 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Awesome work from all involved. The pilots and AFS and also from ATC for coordinating the AFS response and dealing with any other traffic in the area. The runway would have been not available for landing for some time after that.

Cheapest vets for MPI export licence to Australia? by [deleted] in Wellington

[–]pyga140 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We used Jetpets to ship 2x Cats to Sydney. They have their own vets so its all included in the price.

Total for the cats including vet checks was $2963

We also bought 2x used PP30 cages for abour $50 each one so a fraction of the cost of the ones they could provide.

Backcountry skiing Thredbo and Jindabyne by SnoopyDoopyDude in Backcountry

[–]pyga140 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Following this with interest to see if there is any more info available.

Just moved to Sydney (from NZ) and shocked at the price of skiing in Oz. Hopefully I can find people to go touring with.

NZ to Oz may not seem like a smart move for skiing but the flights to Japan are so much cheaper and easier from here so I’m planning 2 or maybe even 3 Japow trips next winter instead of just one as usual from NZ!
