Default You'll know you've settled when you buy a.......?

Just been thinking about what I would most like to own. The most non-essential but best finishing touch to my life here in Aussie.. Still dont have one yet...

But mine would be, one of those Glass door 410 litre fridges, just for beer, and completly full, most of the time hopefully with all kinds of different beer.

I'm gaining a room soon, cos daughter no 2 is moving, and I'm dreaming big time . Lol

If you have all that beer lying around you will probably be in dreamland most of the time. but enjoy and send one over for me.

funny the most aussie thing we brought were those great big (could live in it if you fell on hard times) freezers. never have i frozen so much stuff before. been back in the uk for 3 years now and still have a big chest freezer, def a good lesson learnt about saving the food bill from explosion.

Ahhh but...... thats when the money dries up, for about 8 years or there abouts. Of course Children can extend that 'pov" period. Looks like after about 24 years here, we are just coming out of it.

Do they actually do them designed for beer?

I know they do the glass door wine ones and my mate bought one to keep his beer in and it doesn;t go cold enough for beer.

Poor Lamb, if the wine one does not go cold enough, how about a vicar of dibley style ice cream one, maybe you could get that to just under freezing.
