Sitting in the Virgin Blue Lounge at Melbourne airport, having a nice
cooling Asahi beer, while the SO has a couple of glasses of Tattinger
bubbly.

The short haul from Hobart to here, they served us the rice paper rolls
with a dipping sauce. It didn't taste very spicy to start with but *holy
crap*!! I spent most of the flight in pain, and not able to drink my G&T
till we were on approach. But it's all cool now, and the next leg back to
Brisbane will be the dinner run, so it will be interesting to see what is
going to be served up in Business Class.

The SO has decided that now she has flown Business Class for her last 5
flights, she is never flying 'cattle class' again :-)

I think it will be dangerous to your wallet to let her get a glimpse
of First Class and it's a real possibility that she'll get one now
that you've gone and upgraded to business class like that.

Luckily, all domestic flights (within Aust) only have Businmess and
'cattle class'.

And Business Class on an o/s trip won't be too much of a hardship :-)

Vietnamese rice paper rolls have a dipping sauce that is spicy but not
what I would call hot. Having a Vietnamese wife means that I have had
this particular little treat more times than I would care to count. The
dipping sauce most favoured by the Vietnamese is Nước mắm pha (mixed
fish sauce) and is used with a variety of dishes of which G�i cuốn
(wrongly called rice paper rolls) is but one. While serrano peppers or
Jalapeno Chilli is used in the making of this sauce, the quantity is not
great. Typically just one deseeded Jalapeno chilli is used however the
intensity of the chilli is offset by the vinegar, the fish sauce, the
sugar and the lime or lemon juice. Thus the dipping sauce has a sweet
and sour flavour with just a tinge of spiciness.

If you had a stomach burning and painful experience with a supposed
Vietnamese dipping sauce, then may I respectfully suggest that you have
your stomach ulcer attended to post haste. Either that or your dipping
sauce was of Thai origin. The Thais tend to like their food quite a lot
spicier than the Vietnamese. Even so, I doubt the sauce was hot as the
clientele on a flight to or from Tasmania would be 99% Caucasian and the
catering department at Virgin simply wouldn't risk making a significant
number of their business class passengers ill. That then leads me to
suspect that you are talking out of your arse as you are so often wont
to do.

I don't have stomach ulcers, dipshit. I have about 1/4 of my stomach sac
left, and about 24" of my small bowel removed.
Prior to the op, I used to make 'ring burner' curries, and had chilli in
almost all my dishes.
Now I can't even handle a ****ant Vietnamese dipping sauce.

I really don't think Luke Mangan is going to mix a thai sauce to go with
Viet rolls.

Well, on 2 of the 4 legs this trip, the SO and I were the only
passengers in Business.
On one leg we had 3 others with us, and another there was one other.

Regardless, they still provide "mild" food to their business class
clientele unless by specific request and it matters not one whit how
many passengers utilise the service. That's how Qantas handle it
according to a few catering staff and stewardesses I know and I have no
doubt in my mind that Virgin operate under similar principles.

My dear chap, it was you with your 1/4 stomach, reduced intestinal tract
and pin dick who dared to attempt such a folly as dining on even mildly
spiced fare. I'm sure your doctor warned you against such acts! Some
people never learn. They abuse their bodies over their lifetime and
wonder why they have to pay a horrible price as they near the end.
Amazing, truly amazing!

After this you're in the ****wit bin with the rest of the retards.

No, he's not. Are you that retarded you can't read?

I said Luke Mangan, I mean, Luke Mangan.

You obviously spend so much time with your head up your fat arse, you

Well, dipshit...... for your limited knowledge..... the Vigin lounge
served up two curries for the dinner crowd, and from all reports, they
were quite spicy.

But then, that's again not something you'd every know, or experience.

Looks like YOUR KARMA has already paid you the big visit. After all,
you're the one too cut up to even dine on dipping sauce. At 74, I can
still tolerate hot curries and even hotter chilli dishes. Looks like
karma is taking its time catching up to me.

Luke Mangan is not someone I'm familiar with. Luke Nguyen, on the other

Err no, the Vigin (sic) Lounge is not a place I've ever been in nor have
I any experience of it. The Qantas Lounge, on the other hand, is a place
I am quite fond of. My former employer always bought me first or
business class travel tickets with Qantas at "your" expense. Your
remarks make me feel somewhat less guilty about that.

I am not now nor have I ever been what one could call a "drinker".
Whilst not a teetotaller, the breweries and distilleries would be broke
long ago if they depended upon the likes of me for their continued
existence. At best I could barely be termed a "social drinker",
especially now that I have semi-retired and no longer need to attend
office functions.

And are you nearly dead??

If one assumes the average male lifespan at three score and ten, then
one could safely say that I am into bonus time. However, given a family
history of longevity well into the 80s and 90s, I expect to be around
for quite some time yet. Given your obvious lack of health, I feel quite
assured that I will outlive you by a considerable margin.

It sure visited YOU hasnt it swallows? You cant abuse your sphincter

And you would be one of those boring as bat shit old farts who is so stuck
in the mud, doesn't want change, screams and cries when anything is
changed, and is not willing to go out on the 'edge' and try something
different.

Your life obviously suits your closet mentality, most intelligent people
would pity you because your life sucks.

Probably the main reason you had to marry a gook. No free thinking Aussie

You haven't a clue what "trying something different" is all about. For
you, risktaking is supping on a Vietnamese roll with "mild" dipping
sauce! Way to go man, way to go!

Angry? I suspect, from your childish schoolyard outbursts, that it is

He certainly showed all and sundry what an absolute moron he really is.
I don't think three quarters of his stomach was removed. If anything,
I'd suspect three quarters of his brain was removed and the rest of it
is inert.
He probably read the inflight magazine in cattle class and gleaned from
it what the people in business class are having.

Besides, if he had a clue, he should know that Thai dipping sauce is
very much like Vietnamese dipping sauce. Only difference is they specify
1 - 2 chillis instead of just one. They do specify in most Thai recipes
to deseed the chillis and the seeds are the hotter parts of the chilli.
The alternative is to use a sweet chilli sauce and that sauce just isn't
hot.

Chances are that the surgery was performed by sticking instruments in
Swallows' ass, and since that's where she has always kept her "brain",
some damage was inevitable.

It doesn't have to be a sinister lie. It could be as simple as the fact
that for most of the movie Swallows' head was in the lap of the guy next
to her, so she only caught fleeting glimpses of the movie on the upswing.

I don't doubt that Swallows suffered the pain she posted about. She's

I envy your SO, but I can't stand asahi. I tried it out at a couple of fake
japanese restaurants, those all operated and owned by chinese people, and it
sucked bigtime. And it costed like 6 euros while a heineken is 3. Can you

Unfortunately, I'm limited to the types of beers I can drink. Can't have
the real 'meaty' brews that I used to drink, anymore. Now have to stick to
the lighter brews like Asahi, Great Northern (Australian beer).... and
anything that is 'paler' brew, rather than the full bodied brews like
Boags, Heineken etc.
