    What wildlife do you have in your yard?

    in General Discussion

    This has gotta be up there !

     

    A MASSIVE Australian fur seal is on its way back to the wild after running amok in suburban Launceston.

    Tasmania Police issued a statement confirming the big troublemaker had been collected from Pnequite Road in Newstead by Parks and Wildlife officers.

     

    After a medical check-up he will be released.

     

    Dubbed “Mr Lou-Seal” the animal made its way into the suburb of Newstead earlier today, sitting on cars causing thousands of dollars of damage and nonchalantly lumbering through the leafy streets.

     

    The seals can weight up to 300kg and police warned locals to keep their distance.

     

    After spending the morning spooking the natives, the seal was cordoned off while sleeping on Penquite Rd.

    I remember sitting at a set of traffic lights, and reaching for a lip salve stick as I'd got a couple of coldsores. Waiting for the green light, I quickly applied the stuff to both lips, and was aware of a car sitting next to me. . I looked across, and the male driver was making 'Kiss Blowing' pouts at me. . bloody embarrasing or what ?

    But Mr Perry, you liked it and it made your day didn't it spacer.png

    So I took the plunge an purchased a Go Pro Hero 5, does anyone know of a good case for these?

     

    Came across these but not sure if it would suit the 5. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=251784082876

     

    Note: For people looking at buying the Go Pro Hero 5 for there aircraft please note the previous audio cable will not work on the Hero 5 as they have moved to the USB-C port. So sadly you have to purchase a new cable and Go Pro have it priced at $79.95 OUCH !!!

     

    Not sure if the cheaper adapters of ebay will work.

    Time For A New Phone

    in Science and Technology

    Posted

    Well the time has come for a new phone, I got rid of my iphone earlier in the year for a nokia that had no functions apart from making calls.

     

    I hate tech stuff these days, but I am in need of a wifi hotspot to save having to have a seperate data sim.

     

    So I am thinking of getting a cheap android, who uses android here and what is it like?

     

    Looking at a cheapy like a HTC Desire 530

     

    I like how with apple you can lock the device down and disable apps, android seems to come with a lot of crap.

     

     

    The Wingsuit crowd are having a bad month - in fact, a bad year

    Do we need to take serious steps to try and preserve this death-wish mob, before they become extinct??

    I guess you don't understand the base jumping/wing suit sport.

     

    You think they just strap on a wing suit and go jump outta or off something?

     

    Well your wrong, it is practised constantly and it is very safe and remember a lot of base jumpers and wingsuit flyers are highly experienced skydivers with thousands and thousands of jumps under there belt.

     

    Before you make comments about these guys I would do a bit of research on the sport.

     

    Trust me I know what it takes and whats involved !!

    I remember I had just finished working at Moorabbin and was on holidays and was up all night tinkering with some gadget and it came on tv and I was thinking this is a cool movie, but something wasnt right when I started getting the same thing on every channel.

     

    Wasn't long before I let out an audible gasp and muttered the words crap this is real.

     

    Then I started to feel sick when I could see people jumping out of windows to certain death.

     

    To the air crews, people in the towers and on the ground, I salute you and may you rest in peace.

     

    To the hero aircrews who tried to stop this from happening, we will never forget and I fly in honour of you all.
