    How is this for timing! The wife bought me a "keyfinder" as I am always losing my keys as I work outside between garage and car (garage is messy)
    Got home Monday & started getting ready for Tuesday and guess what! Lost my keys.
    Went to check the mail before picking the wife up and in the box is a keyfinder.
    I suppose it will have to stay on my spare set entil I stumble over the lost ones!

    Not so much grumpy but holy crap.... Took the family to Sizzler tonight for Amanda's birthday and I'm sure they must have confused me with someone looking to dine at a 5-star restaurant. $85.00 later and we'd had our fill of cheap pasta, overpriced childrens' hamburger and fish with chips, a chicken meal that looked like it had been warmed in the microwave and the obligatory endless soft-drinks and ice-cream.

    I think my boys were the loudest there. Plus me trying talk over them to quieten them down! We don't afford eating out very often. I think they were just exited. Sam (3&1/2) kept saying the drink fridge and the ice-cream fridge were the best fridges ever. They also couldn't get over the fact you could push your cup into a lever and ice would fall into it!

    Salad bar $23
    Chicken meal $29
    Hamburger and chips $12
    Fish and chips $12
    Drinks $8 - $10

    Then you eat so much trying to get your money's worth you come home feeling bloated and sick. Sizzler syndrome!

    we went to sizzler in toowoomba. once. food was pretty grim and it would have worked out cheaper to go to a restaurant where we didnt eat till we felt sick, just cos we could!

    Agreed,I've had some lately that I have had to scroll through a dozen times before I got one I could read.

    You guys that went years ago should try it again i remember it being bad didnt go for years but went back about 18 months ago and we go there when we have a night out which unfortantly isnt very often. You just go the salad bar especially for the kids I usally get a steak the kis and wife just the salad bar its a good feed and much cheaper than any of the restraunnts aroun here and often after leaving restraunts our friends invite us too i am grabbing macas on the way home as they serve next to **** all.
