I'm reminded of the time that cadbury had one of those instant win a free chocolate bar competitions. They printed a message on the inside of the wrapper, but they only printed the message if it was a winning bar, and you could see a slight indent on the wrapper from the outside because of the printing.

Somewhat related, Freddo frog packaging has various endangered frog species on them starting this week. I did the 3d modelling for those frogs.

Goat.

First time I had goat was at a Kenyan party on the BBQ.

They put on no seasoning, and made it well-done.

Strangely enough Cadbury hasn't done a press release yet.

Sheep (Ovis aries) are quadrupedal, ruminant mammals typically kept as livestock. Like most ruminants, sheep are members of the order Artiodactyla, the even-toed ungulates. Although the name sheep applies to many species in the genus Ovis, in everyday usage it almost always refers to Ovis aries. Numbering a little over one billion, domestic sheep are also the most numerous species of sheep. An adult female is referred to as a ewe (/juː/), an intact male as a ram, occasionally a tup, a castrated male as a wether, and a young sheep is a lamb

I have a real dumbass questions thst honestly I've asked myself for a long time.

When you're in the outback on some street that goes in one direction for hundreds of miles with nobody around, do people actually care about the speed limit? Do they just go as fast as they like, or as the road allows, or do people generally stay under the limit?

No, it's measured by tinnies. How many tinnies from Louth to menindee?

You speed and drink drive and dodge emus and roos and shinglebacks.

Whenever I'm out in the sticks I generally just drive to the road. Could be 20 over or could be 20 under. It's always shithouse getting back into the urban fringe again and having to drive with one eye on the speedo.

As blow mentioned, goat can get chewy if overdone, there's no fat in the striated muscle tissue like lamb, so you have to be smart.

I usually crush garlic cloves and tuck them in incisions, and use a decent amount of stock and redwine in a roasting pan. Or use a cast iron pot/coals.

I want to experiment with wrapping pig skin/fat belly around one.

It should be but I’m guessing things aren’t yet open or people have decided not to go out.
Had to head to Katoomba for groceries cause leura woolies is hosed after the blackout last night. A power pole had fallen across a road though and destroyed the light at the top of it.

The closest thing we have to Uber eats is the kid who will pick up your food from the pub and deliver it to you on a scooter for 2 bucks. You gotta keep your credit card on file at the pub though but apparently people already did that and sent their kids out on bikes and this kid had the bright idea of just stinging his mates parents for it and it caught on

Saw some sweet bands last night.

Potion, a Sydney doom metal band followed by sumeru who are more sludge but had some fat riffs that got brought back slower and heavier a bunch.

Main act was Beastwars from NZ. Never really got into them and I still don't think I will but their show was impressively heavy for a bunch of kiwi dads.

I was completely off my chops and it was sick as hell.
