  1. ABBA didn't DO IT for Me.sorry. My concern was what form of a god would scare NESSY? You only gave various Names. What does a God look like? If it was a Greek one, Nessy would just eat it. Nev
  2. There's always a Wind on a Motorbike. It normally comes from the front. Don't ride when there's HAIL in it.. After a while, your wet weather Gear keeps the Water IN. Nev
  3. With Many Years of flying into Cairns I can honestly say I've never encountered RAIN as Heavy in any other Place. You just marvel at How a Plane can even fly in it. And there's that Great Hill just to the west. Everything goes Mouldy. Gekko's on the roof upside down. The only place to be is in an airconditioned Bar. Humidity is 100%. Shorts worn half way down the Backside is De Riguere(sp). Nev
  4. An appropriate Motorcycle, even in it's original form can be a work of art. With some, you wonder what the designer was thinking. Even it's Mother wouldn't love it. The essential thing is to finish what you take on, or it becomes a burden. Life is short. You won't do everything you would like to. There's an urge in a lot of people to BE different but also to have something that Others admire and desire. Have and do WHAT YOU want rather than impress others. What suites them May not suit you. A second Hand 1947 Royal Enfield Bullet costing 5 Pounds was my trusty steed for Many Years. I didn't give a tuppenny for what others thought of it. OR what it was worth. I did all the work on it and for a lot of the time it was my only transport. Nev
  5. You won't get any regenerative in flat Country but there are NO Hills either. That motor set up eliminates the Gearbox and clutch. When you consider the total weight involved it may not be that Bad. Also you don't know how draggy the Caravan is and How fast He went and where the wind was coming from. The Chinese have an ICE that is over 45% efficient. When you have a Lot of wind drag, going a bit slower makes a lot of difference to the Fuel consumption. I don't think it's Fair to call it a Toorak Tractor.. They have a fantastic rear suspension and aren't just Built for Looks. Nev
  6. Well obviously His electorate didn't WANT him, and HIS was about the Best Blue Ribbon seat In Victoria. As HE said, the Seat where Most of the LEADERS come from. HE was "Out of Touch with the electorate and Made many Tactical Blunders. The VOTERS decided. Democracy In Action. I love it. He came a Gutser with the RSPCA. Too clever by Half. Nev
  7. American isn't He. Nev
  8. I checked up on all this and you would think Helping Putin so Brazenly would be condemned but it Isn't. The Farmers have been bitching about the Cost of Diesel. For HOME use. In Russia Diesel and Petrol standards with Sulphur is way below anywhere else so it's hard on Engines and the People. Russia is also short of fuel Itself. Trump is SO whacky and all over the Place. HOW could anyone really deal with HIM? It's quite obvious He's trying to Enrichen Himself and his siblings. When is the GOP going to do the Right thing? After He's started the Next Depression?: His "Art of the Deal" is not a skill. it's just a method of when A gun is at your Head you will agree with Him, or all Hell will break loose. Nev
  9. It's all hypothetical . Who is suggesting a Likely spill? Murdoch? To be the Leader, you have to retain your seat. LIBS / NATS have done that a few times. That would illustrate How out of touch the "Inner Sanctum is with the electors. The "SENATE" is different. Depending on the vote Tally. the LIST dictates How many of that Party will get Into the Senate and WHO they will be. Keating Used to refer to the Senate as "Unrepresentative SWILL" and HE had a Point there. . It's supposed to be the House of review. Many of them are Out and Out ratbags. Malcolm Roberts as a Prime example. Tasmania's Eric Abetz (still around) also. Nev

    I'm not into Most of those Songs. My brother was. I was working on Motorbikes, Cars and model Aeroplanes. Nev
  11. " Anxious Failure" has a Lot of Baggage. Considered to be the Most Educated fool in the Parliament. They KNOW their Position is desperate. They are very successfully WEDGED by Hanson's Mob and their Own deserters.. The supporters MUST Hate that. Nev
  12. I haven't heard of any Moves to roll Albanese. It's team effort there, not a One man Band Despot show. There's Plenty of Talent there. The Alternatives have no certainty of continuing to exist. With friends like the NP and LITTLE to be PROUD of, you don't NEED enemies. The way they select Candidates is Much of the Problem. Women don't get treated well. Very Much a Monority. Nev

    I Just phoned to say I love you. Nev
  14. Let it Rest in Peace. It's too far gone and the Later Indians were made when the tooling was worn out at the factory, during the War Years. I think 53 was the Last year of REAL Indian Production. The 80 Cubic inch Blackhawk Had quite a few Issues. There were some BADGED English bikes Brockhouse (brave) and Royal Enfield Twins that carried the Name for a short time. The Brand was resurrected about 20 years ago and might have been built by Polaris. Nev
  15. What Form did God assume on that occasion, I wonder.Nev
  16. Nah, People Love it. I wouldn't want to go to a Place that Has the death Penalty. It's state Sanctioned Murder. A poor example to exhibit, especially in a Country that Pretends to be Christian. Thou shalt NOT KILL. Also Let He who is without sin, Cast the first Stone, Judge NOT, Lest thee be judged. Nev
  17. Cheeses Crust. We've been through this before. Of course it's used. You had cover and Peace of Mind.. That's NOT Nuthin. Nev
  18. What are you soaking it In. Diesel? Nev
  19. He also tried to Get Clover Moore out of the Sydney Mayors position by making wild claims about Aircraft expenses, so his wife could have a go at it. He has NO shame. He hasn't got NICE teeth Either. Nev
  20. He doesn't keep Pointing it out. Why is it a disadvantage? IF that's all you can whinge about . Overseas sources Rate the Government Highly in the things that Matter. Check it out. Nev
  21. The Norwegian Gov't has no connection to the Group that decides who gets the Nobel Peace prize. Trump has the emotional development of a Sooky 4year old building $#!t Castles in his Pram. Nev
  22. The National party cares more about coal and gas than It does about Small Farmers. Nev
  23. You always need to know Ground Height and your actual height to determine Height above ground. Putting in the Local area QNH, OR setting your altimeter to read the Aerodrome Height when you are on the ground will achieve that, and separate you from other traffic referencing the same Info. Nev.
  24. Getting a couple of wheels shouldn't be that Hard. If you want to restore a vehicle and get the Best outcome, Get the BEST one you can find and do the Least to it that destroys it's originality. A lot of these old vehicles have Fatigued Axles cracked cranks, heads and Blocks and Chassis Parts and RUST,etc.
  25. An Airline Pilot I once knew went into a Hardware store dressed like that and Ordered a Bottle of Methylated spirits. He rubbed it fondly and asked "I don't suppose you Have a COLD one , do you?" Nev
