Idle TinTam

The workload in the office has dwindled down to nothing. Everyone is busy and putting up a false front on the PC screen but surfing with a small window just below the screen. I am free of those guilt because I’m in MS Words and blogging thru’ – not a single one suspected me – thks for the “blog for Word” add-in. (For those who has not download it, do it now)

Yesterday I was thrown into an urge that only pregnant women suffers. Suddenly I needed TinTam. The only problem was that you could not get it from 7Eleven, Shop and Save not even your neighbourhood provisions shop. The Uncle just gave me the blank look when I asked him for it.
“Apa itu?” (translations – what’s that). I couldn’t be bother to ask futher.

I went home desperate. Where can I get it?

While waiting to break my fast for the day, I stole some precious little time and do some surfing. I don’t know whether its coincident or someone is thinking bad about me, I came across THIS . They WERE TALKING about TimTam. Of course if you read thru’ they were also talking about Oreo.
Ha! Between Oreo and TinTam, its TinTam hands up ALWAYS. Poor Americans how proud they are of Oreo,  I’m sorry Australia rules.

I took my wallet and headed down to Cold Storage at NorthPoint. Sure enough, they’re there. Got 2 of them ($3.55 each) - the original and the dark chocolate.

Finished them that night. I’m a happy man now.
