  1. A member of our classic club swapped his solo for an outfit on a club run, with no sidecar experience. He and his son were killed.
  2. Living in Vic I miss real weather.
  3. Looked it up Target: HRH Prince Alfred, the second son of Queen Victoria, who was visiting Sydney as captain of HMS Galatea. Location: A public picnic and sailor's home benefit at the beachfront pleasure grounds in Clontarf(Sydney, New South Wales). Assailant: Henry James O’Farrell, an Irish-born man with a history of mental instability and heavy drinking, shot the Prince in the back with a revolver.
  4. My friend's ancestor shot a Royal in Australia, but only winged him. A prince I think, in about 1870.
  5. I never click on these links.
  6. Or a French letter and an Australian letter?
  7. My Prado diesel tows my van at 15-16 l/100km.
  8. In a swimming pool, the P is silent.
  9. I have spent a couple of hours on the phone over four calls with the Westpac bank as they are trying to re-confirm my customer identity. I have banked with them for thirty years at least. I sent them a copy of my driver's licence and, when that was unacceptable, my passport. They say I am not McCarthy but I am Mc Carthy. The space is on my driver's licence and my passport, has always been there and had never caused a problem before. So, I sent them my birth certificate. They say that it is not necessarily me because, although it shows my father's name in full, it only gives my two Christian names, so my surname could be anything. At that point I lost my cool and now may be looking for a new bank.
  10. He was just about to launch his final book.
  11. I find it very helpful. Particularly with solving IT problems at home.
  12. Sounds like my trip to the loo this morning.
  13. He has disappeared for weeks and months a couple of times in the past, so I hope no cause for alarm.
  14. I had trouble in NZ pronouncing Manurewa. I thought I had the first part correct…
  15. Donald the Dick Tator just checking his equipment. He had a damaging leak from his administration.
