I am about to make my first trip to Australia. I've downloaded the scenery from OzX and a few of the Aussie Airport packages. Before I do so i was wondering if I could call apon the experiences of my fellow flight simmers. I'm a bit nervous (understatment- picture Tweak from South Park) about doing this as I've had issues with other add ons.

So my request to you is, if you have these and have had problems, complaints let me know. If you think it sucks, let me know. How is it on fps? I'm looking to head of a disaster before it happens.

Likewise, if you love it and couldn't imagine being without it chime in. I ask here and not in the OzX forum because "off site" appraisals tend to be more explicit.

Many thanks,

-J-

Don't waste your time asking how good it is... Just go experience it... You'll love it!

..."Vegemite" is the Vegetable equivalent of "Marmite", and made from chopped Cabbage, Carrots, and Brussel Sprouts... Wink...!

(Every Australians favourite Spread).

Marmite is made from bits of Cows.... Roll Eyes...

(..some Englishman's favourite Spread).

...probably... Roll Eyes... Grin....!

Paul... Grin... Grin... Grin...!

You're thinking of Bovril. Marmite is made from yeast extract & is a by-product of brewing beer. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marmite

PS. Bovril is no longer made from beef extract & is now similar to Marmite. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bovril

Hmmm. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. Thousands wouldn't. Undecided Tongue

It makes no difference anyway. Just the smell of Marmite makes me feel quite ill. No way I could eat the stuff. Shocked

Tee-Hee... Grin...!

I wake up every morning with a big grin on my face as I munch on my breakfast of Marmite on Toast whilst browsing the Sim V Forums, trying to desperately destroy yet another Sensible Thread with my daft responses...

My Nurse is presently treating me for; "Non Serious Syndrome"... Shocked...

(...I don't think its working!... Smiley...!

Paul...its still very early in the day!... Smiley...!

I like Marmite! When My wife and I took a trip there (Maidstone Kent), I was only able to find a couple of the small size jars to bring home. But, I was on foot, so I didn't get to search very far!

Paul, if you got too much marmite on hand, you could mail a jar to me! Cheesy

..not on your Nelly,Mate!... Wink...!

I'm  keeping it all to myself!... Kiss... Grin...!

Marmite, thickly spread onto fresh Bread and Butter is guaranteed to tickle your taste-buds, and remove the top of your head!... Smiley...!

...love it!... Wink...!

Paul... Grin... Grin... Grin...!
