Evoloution in action. Well inovation at least

I should put the boogie board on top of the boat, esky lid and raised table in one, for the sangers I would put them in a container first or the ice will make them all soggy.

Uh Duh! Thank you Captain Obvious! ... Bit what if I use freezer packs instead of ice?! Huh! What then smarty pants?!


Mick

While you two are arguing ha ha .... I took note. Two grilled Muenster cheese and Marmite sammies.... deeeelish !

well the freezer packs will have condensation on the outside, this will make your sangers wet. There is also a risk of moisture ingress as the boogie board would not really seal onto the boat.
I suppose you could put the sangers in a plastic dish, they would then float on any water in the boat.
Or you could mount a barbecue onto light timber, float that in the pool and have a steak instead. Mmmm steak.

So as a anglophone, I like to think I absorb a lot of culture from our fellow English speaking brethren, but would someone explain marmite? or vegemite, or any of the yeast extract pastes? Is it something you can even get in the states without ordering online?

You can get them, I am fairly sure nightblade will tell you where, or I can post you some portionsize packs of vegemite.
What do you want to know?

Well Mr Marsh, it won't be any good for cleaning teeth with though you can try and it will be tasty, nor will it get into a piece of chalk, but it sure will put the lead in your pencil, sadly, it leaves it to you to find something to scribble on... I expect most of the double meanings in all of that to go right over your head, but if they didn't then you would have a pretty good understanding of at least one of the 'mites I would think.

If you like salty,beefy kind of flavor then this is up your alley RMarsh. It's normally spread thin to semi thin along with butter on bread and toast(unless your like Mick in which case you just eat it by the spoon) but can also be used like a Bullion to make broth or to add to gravy , stew things of that sort. It has lot's of B vitamins so it's a nice hangover snack or pick me up if you will. And you generally either love it or hate it. Very few in betweens. You can purchase it at store like CostPlus World Market and sometimes WholeFoods and possibly at some health food stores or gourmet food stores may carry it. I get it from Amazon because most times at least with Marmite, I can only get the small jars. I get the 500 gram tubs from amazon because I like it that much and go through it(which reminds me ,I'm getting low). Most Mites are similar,but I'm a Marmite dude. Hope that helps a bit. It's really a nice alternative to sweets like jam and such at the brekky table...but, I do likes me Jam also. I will probably die a nice cardio vascular death some day I'm sure. Die doin what ya love I say.
