What to do with all those frankfurts and not a mistress in sight say you watso on your most recent post;
https://hotcopper.com.au/threads/what-to-do-with-all-these-frankfurts.6428170/Well that question has an obvious answer - stick the saveloys in a thermos of boiling water and take them on a picnic along with tomato sauce and mustard or perhaps even a cross culture curry wurst sauce!
View attachment 3815147And, speaking of cross culture, has watso noticed how the thermos transcends cultural barriers as well as time periods
(after it was invented of course).And we have seen it can fly and likely people in submarines use them as well?
Which raises a question to which I do not know the answer;
— Water boils at a much lower temperature at higher altitudes.
This means Sir Edmund Hilary types find their thermos tea or tomato soup is much cooler than it is for the ground level folk.
So what about the denizens of submarines? Or speleologists? Or the workers who go down in those terrifyingly ‘journey to the centre of the earth’ type mines to earn their daily bread?
Is their boiling point much higher than 100 degrees?
There is a mine in Western Australia deeper than the highest mountain in Tasmania, Mt Osso (
1617m) is high - it was 1660 metres deep back in 2019, and they want it to be deeper than Mt Bogong (
1986m) is high by 2030.
- There was an ABC story on it that caught sabine’s attention in 2019 and which she will share a pathway to despite that there is no mention of thermos flasks nor what temperature water boils at down there :/
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-04...deepest-gold-mine-and-getting-deeper/11004444But anyway watso - regards the lack of mistresses at your frankfurter post, sabine thinks your edict there must only increase the passion of the swarms who avidly view your thermos collection thread.
…. More than 22,000 views? To a conversation that really only pertains to us thermos buffs and those seeking to become thermos buffs, and perhaps mistresses?
Sabine has doubts.
Not counting the hundred or so potential mistresses of watso and maybe sabine and the other
genuine real life human beings who happen by with
genuine real life interest, sabine fears watso’s thermos flask collection may be being spammed by GHOSTS!
hmmm
…. But that is quite interesting ?
For it means as well as transcending cultures, time
(after it was invented), and the highs and lows of geography, the
thermos flask is a way to lift the veil to other dimensions!It was probably the mention of ouija boards that did it?
Anyway sabine extends the hand of friendship to all those non-corporeal phantasms who are somehow able to click buttons and invites them to share their views on, or knowledge of thermos flasks.
It would be good to know what temperature water boils at ‘over there’ as well please.
Cheers
