Completely lost me?????? What is a 'hipster' and why do people set traps for them??????

I had fantastic service help from Indian call centre people when we were with Optus. They' knew their onions' and were very friendly. Had a nice long chat with a lass from New Dehli. Told me all about her plans for the evening and what the weather was like. Nice people.

Well we know what to do about that don’t we? Just give the schools more money, after all you cant teach kids to read and write with just a pen and paper can you. If you could then children in my era would be better at English and math too for that matter; than children today.

Me kilts arrived, Looks great Needs an adjustment to take up the buckle as Im a bit less rotund than the father in law. Fortunately theres a kilt maker here in Perth who will do it properly. Nearly new by the look of it. Yee ha and och aye the noo!

Funny thing is, is that if they hadn’t arrested him and he HAD gone out and killed all those kids like many before him WE would be baying like hounds on the lease for the blood of the law enforcement officers and courts who failed in their duty to protect the children when they had adequate warning. Now this little cretin has become an example to others who might have been tempted to do the same and waste police resources. So I say to him and those like him "tough titties"!

Love to, but no. Ill be shooting this weekend. My jacket and waistcoat have arrived but nay kilt as yet. Posted separately to save money.

Here tis

We were in Scotland in May and a freind gave me 2 of her fathers sporrans. Lucky me! I need a belt and buckle and a bow tie but otherwise am fully set up with kilt, formal jacket and waistcoat and a tweed sleeveless waistcoat. Might pick up a gillies shirt for the gatherings.

My kilt hasnt arrived in time Modern Gunn 8yrd with Prince Charles jacket and waistcoat. Nice but dear as poison.

I confess that they are not the bits I would have massaged.

Still the best cars Ive ever seen;

Quite right. Theres no shortage of home grown loonies in the US and while the authorities are kept busy watching the islamic fundies one may have slipped through. I hope there is another Presidential order along the same lines as Osama's.

He does, theres a whole series of revisits.

Is that a service station?

The ABC published an article on this too, and much to my amazement allowed me to log in and post. That didnt last long however. But it was fun to have a say on a site that normally blocks everything I try to post.

This is a 'rock and a hard place' scenario isnt it? Labor would risk the wrath of the unions and workers for reducing the subsudies because jobs would be lost, but on the other hand they are propping up 'big business' with taxpayers money to the tune of billions. In fairnest for 6 of those years it was the Libs. But imagine If Labor announced they were giving Gina or BHP millions because the mining industry took a downturn, what would voters say? So where do they go? Jobs or votes? My twopenneth (not worth any more) is this; The Govt should look at a long term investment in partnership with some trusted (financially proven) business partners to produce a product in which only WE have expertise and then sell it to the world market. Find something we have lots of and value add, but prevent a market like China or America from purchasing the raw material thereby creating a monopoly. There are minerals that come into that catagory and I see time and again on forums complaints that we only sell the raw materials. Lets get tough and hold some stuff back by legislation and create a value adding industry via tax incentives and cutting some of the thick red tape that gets worse by the day.

The Trumpy will not be easy to source, the V50 might. There was one in Thunderbikes recently for about $5000 in very good nick. Id be after a Honda CB 400 Supersport if I didnt have the GUzzi already. I have lusted after one since I was old enought to ride.

Soon as Im home and I can Ill post something. The bike is just about to be stripped to the bones so it wont be pretty :o

Ive sourced a new 16" 36 spoke rim for $140pp Now all I have to do is measure the spoke length when it arrives and order the correct length. Ill run a 16" 120/80 rear tyre reversed on the front as one or two of the other bikes above have done to get the "look".
