    I was there too in the 80s and saw many little vans with platforms at the back. So many people at the back that the front wheels only occasionally bounced down onto the road, giving the driver a chance to influence the direction of travel. This photo is from a visit only ten years ago but shows that the state of road transport has not improved.

    All the people in a country have to cop responsibility for the mad ones. They are going to get bombed. If it hadn't happened to Germany then there would be no Jews and we would all be speaking German. I can feel sorry for the innocent ones, but they are collateral damage. Ask bomber Harris.

    My aunt had a huge sign on her loungeroom wall which said Mit den tigre e tanken. I don’t even know what language that is, but it had the big tiger picture and must have come from a service station.

    What would you expect from a deep lead mine? Lead was pronounced leed and it was a gold mine

    Anyone who creates and lives in an enclave, wears identifying garments and speaks another language is always going to be singled out and victimised. This goes for any religion or creed. Folks who integrate, as did the Greeks and Italians in Australia, become part of their new community and are loved.

    I have only heard of a few of the people on this thread and certainly have no idea what they look like or did when they were younger.

    They could have saved money if they had only pulled themselves together.

    We had that rule for a heritage building extension, so I had to rush around with a metal detector and shovel before the builders arrived. I found bits of several mouth organs and a shotgun all probably 100 years old.

    Hucks starter, is a shaft with a dog to engage the propellor boss, mounted on a car, driven by the car engine. I saw one on a Model T at Shuttleworth. Better than the Armstrong method.

    Slow cook the mutton, cool it and scrape of the fat, then reheat.
