Search terms are such tricky beasts

There comes a time in every young blogs life when the search term post must appear. My apologies to all who may not have found quite what they were looking for but searching can lead us all down the odd blind alley.

Paddock Thong

Of course, there is probably a perfectly reasonable explanation for this search but I have my own interpretation. Do I ever mention underwear? Why does the thong make me laugh? Could it be Borat and his mankini? Could this go back to the 90’s and my delight at Kramer from Seinfeld and the man-ssiere?

Ahhh, I loved this search because it made me think of undies /thongs, specially developed to wear whilst doing such things as feeding the cattle, rounding up the chooks or mending fences. A slightly rustic colour range, I’d imagine: thorn, stone, beige and carkey(mis-spelt because it is Friday afternoon and I have gone blankies). Still, carkey could be a good enough term except it raises images of a tarnished silver rather than the traditional mucky green. Army colours. Camouflage patterns. Very funny undies and durable…when I did a Google search using ‘paddock’ and ‘thong’ my blog ranks at the top of the list so that seems to say something… but I never talk about undies, just kangaroos and blokes wearing pairs of summery thongs (flipflops), on their feet. That is how keyword searches work.

Cows Bum

Well obviously, but I hope you didn’t mean me…lol.

Crabby Kangaroos

I’ve had the odd pic of a kangaroo and I am sure I use the word crabby so this searcher found themselves here. I guess any roo would be crabby if they were constantly being trumpeted as the new, lean, green meat.

I have no personal experience of kangaroos getting crabby or even slightly annoyed but it has been well documented that under some circumstances they can do you a nasty injury with their powerful legs. I guess, the secret is to not make them feel affronted or miffed. I am not sure what makes a roo miffed but usually, they just run away so it isn’t much to worry about really.

Giant Birds in the Melbourne CBD

Loved this idea. I haven’t seen any wandering between the sky scrapers or bobbing about in the Yarra but they could be there. I have seen the eagle {?) statue sitting solemnly with its back to the railroad near Spencer St. Could that be one. I suppose I may never know.

How to cope with 40 degree heat?

Fridge, air-con, laying low, blinds down, complain (optional but I find it helps), ice cubes, icy poles, sun screen, shopping in big centre with air-con if you can stand it, wet flannel on forehead , lots of iced water… I am the wrong person to ask because I usually go into shock when the temperature stays in the 40’s for a few days.

Pidgeons flying in head superstition

Pidgeons flying at my head was the subject of the post that brought this searcher here but I think ‘flying in one’s head’ is much more interesting.

gerello roast

It is ironic that quite a few people find me with this search. I have no idea about the ins and outs of cooking this type of roast. I know nothing. I hadn’t even heard of it until Jayne mentioned it some time ago in a comment here. Now I see the signs in the butcher’s window but it is still a mystery to me. How is it different? I am not sure.

That’s enough. Have a lovely weekend.
