    POM = Prisoner Of Mother England
    POHM = Prisoner Of Her Majesty

    My weekend went by so fast...between doing my work thing on Saturday and wrangling kids for the second half and all of today, I can't believe I already have to go back to the office in like 10 hours.

    Actually..Ive read many theories on why an englishman is called a pom here..
    Obviously its aussie slang and the two you put forward Vik are the most common..there's also another that says because of their pale skins over here they burn so easily making them like pomegranates..and that pom may have derived from that....
    Its also said its disparaging..but its not we don't use it as an insult ..its the same as calling ourselves aussie..
    I for one think its Pom ..prisoner of her majesty..but we've dropped the H..because its spelt POM...

    I haven't had cable in about 8 years now. I do Netflix, Amazon Prime, and torrents. My total media expenditure is about $20/mo and I can watch literally anything, on any of my devices. A bunch of us from my work run a Plex server that we share access to. So far we have about 20TB of content on there.

    I only have commercial tv channels and Amazon Priime Video. I just cancelled Netflix as a waste of money. I hardly watch anything. I also have a radio because Apple Music started charging for streaming.

    It actually turned out pretty good

    After I was talked to last night by D I'll be hard-pressed to do another holiday . Not that I have anything better than to sit in kitchen and make food

    As far as today goes not really sure til D wakes up

    I'm still yet to see how many calories is in it

    Still not really sure how the mixings go to make it taste like Mayo but Dr Oz has a simple recipe called "Greek Yogurt Mayo" on his website that I'm going to make next time.
