Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, sounds like I may just have to try this soon.

I'll just set the air-con to 16C and close the room up for a few hours
to get the right 'atmosphere' :-)


BTW, no offence, but every time I see your ID name, I keep
thinking..."Where do they make baked beans?" ;-)

Peter,

I have had the impression that this poster has some
connection with Chicago, which is sometimes called
the windy city. I know you're an Aussie, so I wasn't
sure that you would have been aware of that.

Yep, I knew about that (ex-wife is a native of Chicago). Still doesn't stop
that flash of wind=baked beans :-)

Boston is the home of baked beans in America.

The Windy City is Chicago (where I am from) and was born out of a
reference to politicians around the time of the World's Fair in
Chicago and their propensity for talking and blowing lots of hot air.


Baked Chicago is just a play on the term Baked Alaska. I like to bake
and I'm from Chicago.

Erm, it's 9deg Celcius here within Australia peter.
The wood heater is on (with a nice lamb and venison stew simmering away
on top).

Australia is a big country, and doesnt begin or end with Queensland.

Welcome! I think most of us "got" the connection, plus I'm glad to
see you're a real person who reads and responds. Please post in other
threads.

=> Head's up: Put on your flame retardant underwear if you decide
to participate as a full on poster in rfc! You've been here long
enough to get the "lay of the land".
