There has been the odd comment in the press here in Sydney regarding this problem. It seems that some drivers of a particular religious persuasion believe that dogs are 'unclean' and thus are not allowed by their belief to associate with them in any manner. The reason the matter was raised was becau...

It seems that Lazaridis suffers from a form of alopecia and requested formal approval to use the medication which included the banned substance. Untreated, the condition he has is liable to drive the sufferer potty due to excruciating itchiness of the scalp. I am given to understand that the level o...

Good grief, do the young and not-so-young carry on with such ridiculous activities these days? I thought that sort of stupidity went out when the Ark was launched.

I'm no wowser as I drink to excess myself but that sort of activity is simply ugly.

Hello, blurred: I'm with you, old son.

Some people I think have rather thin skins. Australians often refer to West Australians as 'sandgropers'; South Australians as 'crow eaters'; Queenslanders as 'banana benders'; Americans, generically, as 'yanks'; Englishmen as 'pommies' or simply 'poms'; New Zealanders as 'kiwis'. Sorry, Monty, but ...

I don't normally dabble in another country's politics, Crayons, but I've always thought it odd that England has an upper house consisting of non-elected people. Whilst it has changed a little over the past decade or so it still is a group of non-representative people dictating to the masses what leg...

What's all this about her being anorexic? That's a load of bullshit. Have you ever seen an anorexic lass? If you have not, I'll guarantee that it'll make you weep if you do. Anorexia is a dreadful psychological disease. At sixteen years of age my daughter was a 32Kg bag of bones with no will to live...

He'll be right, Monty. After this thread his ears will be burning.

I didn't play with him (I'm not that way inclined) but I used to know David Hill. This was school days and, at the time, he was mad on trotters (or pacers - those horse races where the steeds are hobbled and pull a light weight cart). He went on to oversee the (then) new one day cricket series in Au...

Those temperatures, Monty, are daunting. It must be bad enough at times for yourself with all the mod cons. I often wonder though what drove the pioneers of old who settled some of the Canadian areas. Mind you, I suppose that comment could apply to many areas of the world. I dip my lid to them, one ...

I knew I should have taken up painting.

Anywhatsit - as I'm somewhat claustrophobic, Japan wins hands down.

Dujon

Two down one to go then, Batman?

Dujon

Good onya, Daxter, mi lad. All the best to yourself and the school.

Dujon

Geez, I hope Jeremy hadn't borrowed it again.

Dujon

Good luck, SOTWA, I hope you recoup your investment.

Dujon

Nice piccies, Batman. Nice to see you've chosen Sydney even though you've travelled the world. You managed to fit a lot into those, particularly The Bridge with ferries outbound from and inbound to Circular Quay, yacht, Luna Park (well, its Ferris Wheel) and even a couple of groups of bridge climber...

Sparkies, TANGO - at least for the first few shoeings. Then, like you, the rubber (took all the fun out of it). Aye, wellies for snow and pumps (galoshes, not the dancing ones) sometimes. What the heck were they made out of I wonder - India rubber and calico, or just rubber? Memory fails me. It's in...

Dujon

No, this bloke was posh 'cos no one else wore them. :roll: I had a foot/ankle problem which caused me to go through shoes at about one pair per month. The clogs and regular visits to the infirmary for special exercises fixed that. Then again, wooden soles and very stiff upper leathers would fix just...

Dujon

Oh, no, Monty. We were right posh we were. Inside 'loo and a separate bathroom even.

To be honest, I have no idea why we were dusted. I doubt if it was lice as it was an all over job. We'd look like snowmen until it was rubbed in a bit.

I'll add clogs too. I don't miss them either.

Dujon

Don't forget the DDT dusting down. It's a wonder I'm still alive. My parents put it in a salt cellar like those they used at the chip shop - holes as wide as pencils.

I don't miss it.

G'day, snagster. You'll find a divers mob of contributors on this site. Spats are short and text speak is frowned upon. Most of us get on pretty well, most of us can spell and express our thoughts reasonably well while forgiving those who type whilst in their cups. :D Get stuck in, old chap or chape...
