Is this the worlds most travelled Roaster...

Postby espressomattic » Fri Apr 17, 2009 9:55 am

My new Whirley Pop arrived today. Made in China, shipped to the UK, back to NZ (South Island) Lands on my doorstep today with only a very minor dent (Not me).

Oh and it came with a surprise bag of Canario :)

So thanks to the usual suspects for this great gift. I'll post some pics soon as.

As usual, he didn't even notice he dented it! Image

I decided I needed a bit of a change so I roasted some Monsooned Malabar. That was a change!

Only a minor dent? You will have to improve your drop kick Matt.

DO you use it at all or is it gathering dust feeling dejected Phil????

And I keep telling you guys, I am more careful these days...mostly.

You do realise that you're going backwards Matt, which was not the purpose of you moving out to the Antipodes. Do you now intend to brew your coffee in a Golden Syrup tin over a wood fire? Are you hunting various indigenous creatures and eating these raw, while clad only in your disreputable Y-fronts? I think we should be told. :shock:

Well George, in regards to eating Raw creatures, I have infact eaten live creatures...I kid you not. Live Sea Urchin and Tuatua (Shell fish). As for the Y Fronts, I am only following your example sir.I have moved onto the classic brown with purple piping. This I elieve is the best colour combination for me.
