  1. How can you ignore the dishonest and evil labor party in Vic supporting crime and corruption to the tune of 15 to 30 Billion? Nothing the other parties have done comes anywhere close. Ever.
  2. I am currently salvaging Landrover parts salvaged from the Harcourt bushfire. It is quite satisfying.
  3. I would assign those to a labor supporter. So what's the point?
  4. Jerry is either a skilled typist or he has mastered voice-to-text. Good on him!
  5. I am having a run of crap products. First, a packet of 24 Eveready Super Heavy Duty AA batteries. After a spate of problems using them, I found three that tested at 0.4 Volts. Don't know how many more were bad as I had thrown them out in groups of four. Even the ones that tested at 1.6 Volts only showed 40% remaining when put into a device. I noticed that the branding is on the batteries, but nothing on the blister pack says Eveready. Second, I am on my third new garden wave sprinkler in the last month. They just jam at one end of the wave. Cost $30-40 each. Third, I have two new tap timers that do not turn off after the set time. They do not turn off at all. I forget what they cost. I think Australia must have been put at the end of the third-world destinations for crap products. Probably serves us right. It can be annoying, for example when batteries don't work in a NR headset when flying.

  8. How much gilt do you want?
  9. I spent the morning with an ex-SAS mate working on my truck. He has a crook back from jumping out of choppers. I have a crook back from too long sitting at a desk!
  10. Victoria used to produce a good Prospectors Guide. I have a couple of copies from different eras.
  11. I have been to a military air show in India. Unpredictable, with no crowd line.
  12. I like our evap ducted unit. I like the humidity.SWMBO wants to replace it with a refrig type.
  13. I have had quite a few old bikes but only one brand new one. It was an RT1 Yamaha in 1971. 360cc trail bike, I rode it on long road trips too. I still have two of them but probably can’t kick start them any more.
  14. I have read a lot of early diaries of prospectors. That idea that all quartz contained gold was fairly common ame caused a lot of disappointment.
