  1. Alf, I think the quote was originally attributed to an immigrant ( Italian or Chinese) with emphasis to the "nothing" and "all," rather than the naughty word. Nino Cullota showed that the first words some immigrants pick up are the swear words. (Which of course I never use)..ha ha . Nev

     

     

  2. I started calling the devils, Taswegians( which I thought was a promotion) and some got offended. Seems I can't please anybody. Tasman was a dutch person. I haven't heard from the NORwegians complaining yet, but perhaps SUDwegians would be more appropriate. Surely there are worse things than wegians. Nev

     

     

  3. Looks fine OME. Give the exhaust valves a bit more clearance than the original settings. Most of my stuff is older. (with NO chrome). The harley oil from a dealer should work well in that motor. I am using it in some of mine and happy with it as most 50 weight oils are only for old smoker car engines and not specifically for air cooled engines. I work on this sort of stuff. Call in if you are down this way. Nev

     

     

  4. Alice Springs is the major airport. Have you considered booking on a bus?. It may stop at some interesting places and it's not stressfull. ( Could be boring). If you have time and can access a camper that enables you to be flexible as to where you stop and stay. and how long in each place. It IS an opportunity to experience the inland. the more research and planning you put in the more you will get out of it. The plane (amazingly) is probably the cheapest, but you see practically nothing. Nev

     

     

  5. The last part is good comment. You wouldn't want to ingest it.

     

    On a lighter note I have long been told /"Life is like a $h1T sandwich The more bread you have the less $h1T you have to eat. That's probably a % thing. Nev

     

     

  6. We are all different. I tend to be ready for the bad outcome and pleased when it doesn't happen. It's not realistic to expect everything to go well ( not saying YOU do). Everyone I know goes thru $h1t sometimes and it can seem endless. There is always someone worse off, if you look hard enough. Nev
