  1. I wonder how real some of these posts are and how many are wind ups Geordie?I'm not sure, but this seems to fall into the category of "What is the bum gun in the toilet for ?" posts, Which I have seen asked on T.V.????
  2. "Roll another one,,,,,Just like the other one...." It's that time of year again
  3. "And the beat goes on, And the beat goes on." Good old song
  4. How can these "Expire" There should be no statute of limitations for Murder,Manslaughter ........Oops I'm forgetting TIT
  5. You are right it looks fake.The frame even looks like it's made out of some sort of pot metal too under the flaking gold paint.It looks like a toy that's been modified to fire bullets or maybe just made so it looks like it can fire bullets.I wouldn't like to try to fire it [if it could]
  6. R I P sailors. I heard there are still about 2 dozen missing
  7. I went through one hurricane in the Atlantic in December 1975-76 .I was working on a supply boat [183ft long] for the North Sea Rigs out of Holland ,The company got a new contract for Trinidad and we took the ship There was an inexperienced mate just running into the waves and the Captain saved all our dozen lives that night. He went running from his cabin to the bridge ,and swung the ship 180 degrees at just the correct moment, to run before the waves. How he did it I don't know and we spend the next day running before the storm Skipper asked me how high the waves were and I said 50 ft.He said no wait until the ship drops to the bottom of the wave. He reckoned they'd be 70-80 ft, this was after a few of us had had to go out on deck and re chain and dog the extra 44 gallon fuel drums we were carrying. .We had to stop at the Azores for repairs .I never want another night like that.I'm actually getting wound up a bit thinking of it. I hope all the sailors are safe.As you say I doubt we'll ever really find out what happened
  8. Facially yes undoubtedly,I wear a full face when riding,but if her back is broken.
  9. Great, this will all be returned to the public purse for improvements to country.
  10. I paid extra on my credit card insurance once for larger motorcycle coverage only to find out later I wasn't covered because I owned the bike and it wasn't a rental. Luckily I didn't need it but always read the fine print
  11. It's world wide.The West said "We are going to sanction Russian oligarchs and confiscate their assets" oh yeah? And the last Australian gov't was among the most corrupt bunch of rorters I can remember."Money,,,Money changes everything" as the song goes
  12. No need to.Just count the number of master baters on Thai visa as a percentage and should give you the same percentage overall.????
  13. What did they expect ? The hub of ???????
  14. Yes, ANOTHER sad depressing story of an everyday occurrence and nothing changes,at least not in the twenty years I know of.Except the traffic seems to get worse and worse.
  15. Well said.I'm the same???? I travel between here and Oz.I go back to Oz, my house is organized and tidy and I swear I'll never complain about Aussie drivers again. When I get back here, I have somehow learned to dismiss the disarray of the house,[Maybe it IS the Stockholm syndrome ????].The driving still does my head in though even after 20 years???? Maybe that can be explained by the continual change from decent driving to bedlam.
  16. I was at a private hospital and they were touting flu shot but no covid shot available
