Turned on the tellie in the morning and what do I see?
Vanilla Ice singing "Ice ice baby". My day had started off good!
The day got even better when I remembered Vicky had brought me pancakes from the Croatian club the night before. They made a de-li-cious breakfast!
Next up were Dead or alive.
Their hit song was called "You spin me around".
I liked hearing it again very much.
Oldfashioned but very entertaining video. Lots better than that modern day shit.
A little bit newer: Supergrass.
"Alright".
Cool vid.
Even more newer but awesome video: Outkast.
Very talented guys who made their contracted albums for Sony and then quit I believe.
Outkast is only 2 guys. This is all them I believe. Correct me if I'm mistaken.
Coolness.
Who's this young lady?
Yes, it's Kylie Minogue! Almost 20 years ago I reckon.
This must be Jason Donovan then.
I've always had a weak spot for her...
Unfortunately she's already with Jason.
Then U2 came on.
"Beautiful day". It was 37C in our garden today btw. A bit too hot if you ask me.
The Edge looks like something fell on his foot...
Last but not least they played "Take on me" from A-ha. Great classic.
It's about a girl reading a comic or something in a cafetaria. The comic is about "Bertus op sien Norton en Tinus op de BSA" I think...
Anyway, they finish eventually. Or, well, they pass a dude waving a flag. God knows what that means... Reminds me of something: I was flagged 3 times once while go-karting. I didn't know what it meant so I didn't take much notice untill those bastards turned my kart's engine off. Aparently I had to let faster karts pass me. What's the sport if I do that?!
The coffeelady in the cafetaria is awfully disturbing. obviously she never reads any comics.
You can just tell she loves reading comics...
Here it gets weird. A cartoon-hand comes up out of the paper. Yeah right.
She then takes the hand and guess what?
She ends up in the comic herself!! If that's not freaky...
And the other way around: In the cartoon there's a flesh and blood keyboard player! Surely that's not for real? What do you think?
After these blasts from the past I was pushed back into the reality of the day: Shopping at Woolworths.
I wanted to go back to Virginia, to the gardencenter to get a better bottom pot for my ubercool to-be waterfeature. We passed "Adelaide wreckers" who aparently specialise in British AND European cars!!! How about that?
In the evening Nic took a shower in the garden. Oh the mozzies must have had a feast...

Douchen in de tuin, geweldig, haha, dat moet wel lekker zijn met dat hete weer.
O dear me.
Vanilla Ice looks fresh from the crib.
Not the MTV style "my pimped up house" but baby's cot type crib. Ukk.
Dead or Alive. Lead "singer" Pete Burns found self on Celebrity Big Brother some "seasons" back. Strange creature. Wanna be a woman but a mouth like a Mersey dockworker. (and a right hook the same. he ended up in prison for severe violence and nobody dared mess with him in there)
Kylie Minogue... nice everything except the voice
did you ever hear the pre-silicone Kylie joke
what's the difference between puttin' your hand down Kylie Minogue's bra and sittin' in a Skoda car?
you feel more of a tit in the Skoda
stupid bloody computer that was me deleting as it somehow copied lines from one line to the other the 1st time don't ask why duh duh duh
those 3 monkies
"we were young
we were free
kept our teeth
nice and clean
feel blah blah ok
fell aaaaaaalright"
... ukk
@ Ilse: Niet op het tijdstip dat de muggen gaan vliegen...
@ Gled: Thanks for the info on Burns. Always like little bits of info like that.
And Kylie Minogue.. nice everything, period ;-)
Btw: these days Skodas are pretty nice cars mind you. But I can see this joke work 10 years ago hehe.
your camera photographs the tellie rather decent like.
hey gled, do you watch Never Mind the Buzzcocks?
Douchen in de tuin
OK, that I could read!
What comment did you delete??? :lol:
I remember both the dead or alive video and the a-ha which was one of my favorites way back then.
Supergrass is da best :)
Ik ben helemaal niet jaloers op het Australische weer, ik zit liever hier in een mild-koud NL. Ik hou niet van zon...
Komt het een beetje over of ik het meen? Nee? Liegen is ook niet mijn sterkste kant :)
Veel plezier daar vanavond (hoeveel uur loop je eigenlijk voor?)
Hugs to you both.
Jolanda
@ Kona: Gledwood deleted his own post. I really don't like to censor.
@ Ilse & Kona: I changed my mind on the garden shower: It's BEAUTIFULL. It cools you down SO much, even when it's 35C outside. And if you step into an airconditioned house aftwerwards you stay cool aaaaall the time :-)
@ Jo: We lopen momenteel 9,5 uur voor. Als we straks wintertijd krijgen en jullie zomertijd dan lopen we nog maar 7,5 uur voor.
