The climate change debate continues.

" bills are not that high " That's the problem! . Electricity bills less than $ 250 don't get the government handout . spacesailor -
" sorry never heard of her before coming to Aus, only ' WSA name " .( West-Sydney-Airport ) First time I heard " Nancy-bird-walton " was the airport naming . I think it should have been named after the first Australian aircraft builder & pilot . spacesailor

Over forty years, In this Toongabbie house . So , yes I did a little training at " Badgery's creek " . I also had a day or two at Schofield's , then it was closed. The first time to drive on " Old Windsor " Rd. It had a take-away shop at the corner of " Fitzwilliam " Rd & a wooden bridge onto the dirt track to " Sunnyholt " Rd for Blacktown . As I now have a 16 yo GreatGrandSon learning to drive I think I may be a little OLD ! .LOL spacesailor

Not , if they don't fly . Should I change the ' instrument panel,' for a " msflight simulator " . I could do the " cross country endorsement " by msfs " . Three litres 98 super each month & change the 1/2 litre oil biannually. Cheaper than Boating or drinking . LoL spacesailor

spacesailor replied to Jerry_Atrick's topic in General Discussion
I had a ' ride-on ' lawnmower, three speed gears 36hpX28 " cut . Taught a lot of Grandies to drive on it , & did the neighbours lawns as well . No-one fights for the lawnmower now , it' a push slasher type. That old mower is now a bladeless racing mower . spacesailor -
I bought C steel from " Sim's scrap metal " Sydney . Cheaper than new by lots . spacesailor

I couldn't afford the panels! . Should I bother with batteries. Stand alone panels are too expensive for pensioners. So, what price those batteries . spacesailor -

onetrack You do realise the more sheds , the greater the collection . nomadpete an idiot dived into the Parramatta River ( were the ferry turns around ). and limped out at the other side with the ' cheek of his arse bitten off ' . it's positive. It was a shark . spacesailor -

My sister in law , an ex registered nurse claimed " she witnessed thee dead people " who weren't dead ! .( in her will, to cut her wrists to confirm death ) . I myself am reported to have woken up in the morgue , after being declared deceased by my surgeon . Imagine waking up with lid nailed shut. Also if having a sealed Coffin. Your stomach's acid with turn your body to " green slime ". Horrible thoughts to die by . I want to stay living . spacesailor PS. : I can live without being a millionaire. I can live without flying . cannot enjoy life without living.

Coffin ! .A wheel bin will take the smaller cadaver to the " Crematorium " . Cardboard leaves less ' ash ' than a ' wooden ' box ( casket ) . do the dead really care . ( been there done that ) . xpacesailor
