  1. Answer in the link re gonclaves - thanks Toby is a master!
  2. Awesome riding!! Keep it up Toby
  3. Enjoyed the read. I've lived in Canada, Asia and Australia The best place is here!
  4. What are your plans? Or have you already got a dream job? Mine flying scenic flights in a float plane....
  5. I remember being told 20+ years ago a bloke from adelaide drive a Mitsubishi colt to Sydney on 2litres of fuel - rest was from water Mitsubishi bought out his idea for $55M Not sure how true this is
  6. So lets apply this to the sky... Small aircraft and especially microlights - get the F___ out of our way says the "bigger", faster, commercial operators (obviously more important planes)
  7. Fell off my bike on the weekend - got squeezed between the car and kerb - I can only guess the driver doesn't see me - despite a skinny bike lane painted along the side leading up to the roundabout... Where it occurred Next time im hogging the WHOLE LANE!

  9. Got this one via email: Hopefully, this guy will run for office. He is laid back, looks intelligent,and appears to have what most current politicians lack.

  12. Lets consider another industry ... The construction industry .... The cost of construction here is 4x that of say Singapore If we were to build buildings and sell them overseas (like a car) - we wouldn't ever sell any The cost of wages in Australia means construction costs are high ..... Charge out rates for an electrician is $80/hr! OR is it a case of everyone overseas is underpaid --- of course they are --- so how can Australia be competitive --- we can't If property prices weren't high, it would not work at all.... And it only works because of the foreign investors The government never bothered to bail out struggling construction companies - and plenty of people lost their jobs. (the week before Xmas in my case - terminated with NO redundancy!) happily the company who did that is now gone - serves you right!!! The school spending spree was a complete joke!!! Schools didn't get to choose what they wanted - they just got a hall whether they wanted it or not AND it cost double (or triple) what it would have had the work been directly contracted.... And the builders who actually did the work made next to nothing!!!!
  13. It's just occurred to me many good things start with "F" I.e Free Flying Fun Family Food
