Diggers

[bjobsessed]

It's a very small world when three very nice beautiful stooges can get together from all over and watch the blonde dude. It really is a lot of fun. We all had our own snacks too, and we've watched other Ron movies/shows together. It's the next best thing to really being together. We actually watched Diggers on my birthday which made it extra special since no one around here appreciates Ron the same way I do.

It really has been fun to all enjoy a movie at the same time in three different countries and three different time zones.(Natascha is watching tomorrow my time.) I brought popcorn and tea to the party, Anita brought chips and soda and Natascha brought tim tams and milk. We all set our dvd players to 00:00 and said, 3,2,1 go. It was like the old show Mystery science theatre but without the really bad movie. It is great having technology like skype because you can talk for as long as you want for free. All you need is a headphone set with a microphone. You can talk or text and the texting has a whole bunch of really cute emotion buttons. I will not speak for the others, but I welcome any one else who would like to try. Google skype and it's all there. Now back to the real subject....Diggers

It is crucial for me to know if Ashatan brought traditional Tim Tams, or one of the new varieties, and if so, which one (I am hoping not the chilli chocolate - gross)?

In Tim Tam devotion and head spinning at what a cool world we live in when 3 people in 3 different countries can watch together!

She usually sends me tim tam original and last time she sent me double chocolate. I absolutely love them and she sends me a great care package every so often. Unfortuately, I cannot eat just one and they never last long, but they're awesome.

We could make that four people watching.....

Wow........you guys got a lot of free time, eh? Wish I had as much!

This is not the first time tam-tams has come up on this Board. I want to see them! Can someone take a picture? I'm dying to know what these are!

You're not the only one!!!
I did a google search to find out what exactly they are, and they sure look yummy.
Tomorrow I'll go see if I can buy them here, there are a few places that sell "exotic" ( ) foods that might have them, 'cause a picture isn't enough for me, I wanna taste 'em ;D

Greener grass syndrome? No, actually between three time zones it wasn't easy to find an hour and a half when we were all free. Anita had to stay up to the wee hours of the morning, Lindy slotted it in after work and I myself was on the couch recouperating from stuff so I could luckily do it durig the middle of our day.

Mmm.....no. Rehearsal/performance/prepare-weekly-service-music/no-time-to-sleep syndrome is more like it. I slept till 11 today! WOOHOO!!!

The Tim Tam is indeed an exotic food. It is simply the best chocolate biscuit ever invented.

There is the traditional variety, and a host of newer, inferior (in my view) ones with the exception of the raspberry filled one which is the fundraising for Breast Cancer (hence raspberry - pink) one. It is magnificent and of course has added bonus to purchase. I will give the double chocolate a smile but there is just something about the original for me.

If anyone else wants a Tim Tam sample please feel free to PM me with your postal address. I am always happy to share Tim Tam love.

Finally, I was able to watch Diggers and to say the least, I loved it! From the bits and pieces I gleaned here, it lived up to all the rave reviews. I especially liked hearing Jack called "Angel Eyes", how appropriate. And I couldn't help noticing the face shrug. ;D
