Chinese Hops? What Next

[bradsbrew]

I just hope that when the distribution centre gets the near 400 kg of hops, they all dont go naked, and roll arround in the hops before sending them (I would be temped, imagine making love in them).

Ohhhhhh The sights, and smells

Talk about spoil the suprise pics sent at the bottom of each kilo.

 

[bum]

Edit: Bum, is that how you spell sake? Just doesnt look right.

Seems I have a reputation.

You're right, it does look wrong but you got it right. Weird, isn't it.

I had to double check three times now, either Chappo has stolen your login or he's channelling his thoughts through your PC :blink: :blink:

gee the Chinese are good. And this is f---en brilliant.

Paid to the Chinese company this morning a touch under $3000.00.

Lunchtime they tell me they have the money

An hour later they are ready to package and ship the hops tommorrow. Get this, they would do it today BUT the offical holidays in China finish today, and labourers can start work tommorrow.

I bet many wish they did not pull out of this hop buy. This is better service than the Australian and NZ hop industry

on a differant but sort of related topic (the topic of importing hops/hop products).

so AQIS doesnt require an importers licence to bring in dried hop pellets/leaves
but AQIS does require an importers licence to bring in herbal tea if it has hop material of any description

go figure!

There's no way this thread is back on topic, surely?

So who's organising a grain BULK BUY then?

Not quite

1. No licence if T-90 pellets. They are processed so much they kill every living thing in them.
2. BUT , pressed flower plugs, leaves, loose hops - yes you do need a licence

[MarkBastard]

pfft i think id rather an australian made TV....oh wait

 

[townsville]

wasn't that hey hey its saturday skit racist or racialist

Well guys it wasn't racist, as it was a copy of the same idectial skit on the show 10 years ago.

It all blew up mainly because that USA guy got offended. Actually heard on ABC radio a socialogist explain it quite well

Goes something like this

"Times are changing and what was ok 20 years ago is not ok now, BUT its not racism, I must point that out. 20 years ago, racial skits were perfectly ok, and standard in Australia. No one got insulted. But you did insult some-one if you made sexual statements at them, that was taboo.

Progress to today, where the Internet is king, globalisation, and we are immersed in the USA culture. The American on hey hey its Saturday wasn't talking to Australian when he make his comments, he was talking to the USA, as he knows this skit will go global, and didn't want to be appart of it for fear back home in the USA.

In 2009, real racism is a distant past for young people, Nazi Germany, World War II, The KKK, White Australia policy, - all those thing are a memory for many, and as such, peoples attitudes, now being swayed by the USA, makes racism anything that insults another race. On the other hand, with the liberal sexual attitude of todays people, sexual insults are common place and no longer insultung.

Is it right or wrong, its neither, its just changing times. I have no doubt in another 20 years, we see the attitudes change again"


I found his logic hard to argue against.

Changing times, and attitudes

Thank god I am an old fart and wont change

dont you love how the skit is being international condemed, bu when a comedian gets up and does a ventriloquist act with a 'terrorist' puppet is funny and USA crowds lap it up and its ok.

oh btw. linky for anyone thats interested.

i also love the knobs out there who confuse race and religion. anywhoo back to playing with water profiles in promash

No-one complains about the continuous repeats of the Benny Hill show when he and his sidekicks used to blacken their faces and sing and dance. Strange hey?

Cheers

P.S. Looking forward to seeing what my new plasma TV is like.
