  1. If you have nothing on, It stands to reason you would seek things to occupy your mind. Other animals have FUR to protect them or colours to camouflage them selves. We only have remnants of that Nev
  2. It's a contradiction in terms. The "ordinary" by definition is not notable or likely to be capable of being exciting. IF we go a step further and define the aim is to avoid "pointless change" often just for the sake of it and unnecessary complexity or CONSPICUOUS display of wealth and chattels I'm in furious agreement. WE shouldn't NEED all this stuff and often use it because we have been encouraged to buy stuff we don't have any real need to have. Actually MAKING something is infinitely more satisfying than BUYing it but I've smashed up some arty things I've Made as I didn't quite like them, particularly. In one instance the GLAZING was the wrong colour and that was enough. Space can often be at a premium.. Nev
  3. It won't worry the ROCKS that much. . Any farmer whose had his place for long knows things are changing. Plenty of places that were OK for grapes 40years ago are NO GOOD now They are very heat sensitive. Nev
  4. IF it's DULL you can't SEE it. Got that one past the Keeper. Nev
  5. Must have a bit of MUST ard. Nev
  6. His stupid Family made him like that. it's ALL in Neice MARY's book. The Don cannot FAIL. IF he DOES fail it will be as bad as IF he didn't. . He'll blame ALL and sundry.. Nev
  7. It's not a brilliant title for it. I can't see it being that successful. Make a command decision.. Nev
  8. Someone took Vincent's with confidence and is Now looking for Vincent.' Hostess on PA. "Would the supernumerary crew Member you gave me the Crabs at Mt ISA please make themself known to Me after we land at Emerald. to make further arrangements. This drew some comments from the PAx who didn't know they used to keep them cold in the galley till they could be put in a belly locker that wasn't heated. Nev
  9. I think you can assume your father stuck up for you early in the piece. Nev

    What High School did you attend space? Nev
  11. We are here because Our Ancestors successfully copulated. . Nev
  12. I didn't know they made Tupperware THAT big. Nev
  13. Must be very depressing. Last time I went near the Barkly it was beautiful to get back to the green of the Coast but not the Humidity. Nev
  14. I used to make "stink" Bombs out of old film. Nev
  15. YOU have to turn them ON to get the Higher Readings. Nev
  16. That's been a constant attitude, for well over 100 Years. I used to be rusted on GM Delco Remey elecrics Allison etc. Gone off them a bit Lately. THEY only survived by BORROWING from THE OBAMA Gov't but still flew everywhere on their OWN Private jets. It was over controlled from Detroit always. Too centralised.
  17. Geez we were tough in THOSE days. Actually, there's NO point whinging if there's no one to hear you. Dogs KNOW that. Nev
  18. When you work on farms you get to back things and change gear without the clutch once you are moving, even High-Low range. Still when I did a forklift drivers ticket, It made a lot of improvement in judging tight corners with nothing to spare. I still sometimes watch the COLES market drivers reverse into a narrow access Lane with their semis.. Nev
  19. I've still got the scar from a metal watchband that shorted out down the Back Of a C-172 in the early 50s when I was removing the Battery. I couldn't get it off and just had to let it sizzle. Not much room Back there. Nev
  20. GM's eternal Aim was to not electrify anything. In the good old days we didn't conceive of being able to affect the Planet by burning hydrocarbons. Plastic is somewhere near as bad for People now as Hydro carbons are. Nev
  21. Where is that Place you live? Teen Grabby? Nev
  22. You are on the BALL as usual. Fancy an ENERGY company acting in its own self Interest You find out what they really KNOW/ think when you intercept their Private Memo's. Nev
