Hey man, different strokes and all that! There’s a rum made in my home state called Bundaberg Rum (I’m in Queensland in Australia) and people look at me like I just told them I like to punt babies across the floor when I say I don’t particularly care for it. ;)

Not much of a bourbon girl here, but I’m obsessed with an Irish whiskey called Writers Tears. Freakin’ delish!

You can still hike with one hand! I broke my arm before a family camping trip a few years ago and was still able to do the hikes and what-not (plus my da rigged up a contraption so that my broken wing could hold a beer can leaving my good hand free). Biking might take a bit of balance and practice, and maybe no…

I got really excited for a minute thinking you were talking about real cake, then realised you weren’t.. :(

Ugh, I freakin’ LOVE Laguna Beach. And the OC, come to think of it. It’s so so so far removed from my own life, it’s just glorious!!!

Australian here, and while our public system is not perfect it’s pretty damn good. At least I don’t have to make the choice between paying rent and living, and buying my medications that stop me from going crazy (because the meds are subsidised). I just can’t imagine how a country can look itself in the eye and…

No worries! The ones I have taste rather chlorinated, but it’s better than getting sick because you’re drinking water downstream from where a dead animal is rotting. I go bush quite a lot and have been exploring with more remote camping lately, so anything I can share is well worth it!

Chlorine/water purifying tablets, cable ties, solar battery packs (I have one that can charge anything with a USB port), rechargeable batteries for your torch etc, gas burner and butane canisters. These are some of the essentials that forever live in my camping gear, just in case of emergency.

Thought the exact same thing, and didn’t say anything for the same reasons. It just feels too well-timed, too clean. Ugh.

Call me crazy, but I actually kind of get the compulsion to fix oneself up in a situation like that. If I’m horrifically uncomfortable I’ll do all sorts of odd things to stay grounded or self-soothe in the moment. Granted Scheana probably doesn’t have that kind of awareness, but I’d still like to try and give her the…

As a member of the Commonwealth, and unashamed supporter of the Monarchy, this is fucking AWESOME. I recently shared my own mental health saga on my Facebook page (made it public) because I was tired of hiding it. And I’ve also signed up to be a speaker with BeyondBlue, who are a national organisation dedicated to…

Agreed. When I was a kid, I wore out a VHS copy of Look Who’s Talking. My poor parents.

Hehehehehe you said ‘tit’.

I’m with you, I thought Eureka was so damn condescending to poor Jaymes in Untucked. We’re one episode in and she’s already giving me the shits!

Child of North Queensland here, and it was much the same thing. I went to school in the ‘90s, and my mam was on the P&C committee and part of a big push to put fridges in all classrooms in our school so lunches wouldn’t get too hot and we could keep water bottles in the fridge to cool us down in summer. Great…

Okay, this deserves more stars.

Was not expecting that ending. That is a delight to watch.

I remember almost every detail - the outfit, the month, the place, what had been consumed that night... sometimes the details haunt me like crazy. I’ve mostly let it go, but every now and then it will sneak up and smack me in the back of the head. Big hugs to every lady in this thread. We’re all incredible.

Foxtel in Australia had better pick this up or I will cause a goddamn riot.

The tomato one made me irrationally angry. I think I need more coffee.
