The real question

10 min drive and stay dry each way
Either that or 45 min walk and get wet
Or 15 mins of walking and 15 mins of bus ride

My time is valuable but I might walk to the bus stop when the weather improves.
Fees/Petrol aren't an issue as I'm earning 4 times as much as I was at the pub.

We only use short cut unless there's a good reason

The missus says middle and she's a pig expert. Goes crispier as more fat, it's more like English bacon. Short cut is like someone's taken the best bits away she said.

I've been buying Schultz bacon through Fannie Bay Fine meats up here

100% Australian pork, the taste difference is amazing compared to the 10-20% Australian short cut product at Woolies or Coles.
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!

Highly recommend DOC.
We have them every 3 - 4 weeks
Stick some carrot matchsticks in as well as the onion & cucumber
The longest part of preparation is cutting them up

Tongue in cheek. Ute, HQs, EHs, XFs, they're utes, these new Rangers and others aren't utes though.

They are all utes, they just evolve. Like a particular footy club, they might be in a bigger league than they used to be but they are still essentially the same.

NAh Booneys spot on, these prissied up Hiluxs. Rangers etc arent utes. They're driven by blokes who want to drive a proper ute but are "overcompensating"
