Ok,

We call those donairs. Kabobs are meat on a stick sometimes called soulvaki

There is a shop across the street, will that do?

Yeah Dogger,

They get called Doner Kebabs here some times and I think they are Doners in the UK as well.

Kebabs can also be plain old meat on a stick, e.g. chicken kebabs with satay sauce.

On the kebab thing... Depends where you are in the country, let alone the world! Where I'm from, near Melbourne Aus. what we are refering to here are generally called souvlakis, but the kebab thing is still understood. Although don't go getting confused with the "badly wrapped kebab", which is colloquially a vagina... (or depending on how many beer's you've had, good luck getting them confused!)

Ahh,

I am not sure I needed to know that. That just conjurs up bad images that does :wink:

Speaking of urinals with a view, as we were about 10 posts ago, I had the pleasure of putting back some beer at this one. It's a pub called the Scarborough, on the coast of north of Wollongong. A top pub to kick back on the verandah overlooking the ocean, and when nature calls, you don't feel like you're missing out on anything. If your mates are in the right spot on the verandah you can even stay in the conversation.

But the view. It's all about the view.

PS No, I don't make a habit of taking photos in toilets.

Anyone ever been to the toilets in the Grand Hyatt in Collins Street, Melbourne?

The men's on about the 30th floor has floor-to-ceiling glass that overlooks the Melbourne Cricket Ground.

Nice.

Cheers,

Oliver

Dogger, if I was in your neighbourhood I'd make an exception to my "don't help anyone with computers" rule, swing by and sort it for ya. Top darts on going wireless BTW. WOTF (way of the future) when you get it working. What is going wrong with it ? I had a bit of grief with mine blocking my domain (but I doubt you'd have a domain set up).

The remote system isn't seeing the router.

We use Bell Sympatico services over here and I think they are forcing the issue of there system

Hmm... usually the wireless box has it's own firewall and it's own web config. Normally at 192.168.0.1. Go to that website, turn the firewall off and try and ping your router then.

If that works, you know it's the firewall and it's just a matter of entering some "rules".

If you have no idea what I'm on about, well, you're on your own mate ;).

Sorry. Kinda hard to do on the other side of the world. If I was there with ya, sipping Dogger brews, we'd have it waxxed.

Evo,

Wanted to try something new last night (not like I couldn't call the 1-800 help lineeither and admit my stupidity, its just I am to damn stubborn to let this wee box get the best of me)

Anywau decided it was more important to transfer 10 gallons of brew out of the primary.

Might give it a go tonight, but I still need to filter 5 gallons
