Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateaturipukakapikimaungahoronukupokaiwhenuakitanatahu . This is NZ longest name . But we always smiled at " Whakatāne " as it's pronounced with a F instead of W( Fakakatani ) . Then we heard of the Fucu Maru . My children were always saying it , like a swear word . ( school age. ( now retired )) . spacesailor

K'GARI ISLAND . And I thought it was hard to pronounce " K'G " ( K'GARI Island ) . So I should say KARI island instead of ' Mrs Fraser's Island ' . In Victoria you have a weird mount ( ain ) , we around the world know as " Picnic at hanging Rock " . Does anyone call it by it's correct name . Mount Macedon spacesailor

My bro-inlaw had " cold sweating " . I drove him to the doctors, who had a quick look . He Immediately called an ambulance, massive heart attack ! . Then in hospital found a tumour in his brain , ( inoperable ) . Quick response to doctors/ hospital gave him 4/5 years extra life . spacesailor PS. : my femail neighbour had an aneurysm, I was summond to help , gave " cpr " . The ambulance took 35 minutes for the 7 minute drive . Had her breathing , but was brain-dead after 24 hours . Very upset she didn't recover .

I would loved to have been ( Olympian ) . Last timed " mile " run was 4' 10" . Then Chris Chatterly & Roger Bannister broke the magic four minute mile. I used to run 5 mile before school . Untill one day , I collapsed at school with an asthma attack . spacesailor

When I got old ( 70 (13 years ago )) , the doctor put me on ' blood thinners ' & ' cholesterol tablets " . ( as a preventative ). My heart rate has always been slow , " arrhythmia " is what our blood pressure keeps saying but the dr say it's a slow beating heart . I can get it over 100 bpm, after my half K jog . LoL . spacesaior

Your school. Did many get hospitalised. Blinded, deafened ( by the teacher ) clapping hands over your ears. Broken finger's didn't make a hospital trip . Ours were demobbed soldiers. spacesailor

Hence my thoughts on going EV , with all the safety features, like slamming on the brakes before you drive over the peasants. spacesailor PS. : don't forget ( like oldies do ) speed sign recognition. Lane keeping , Red stop light , side collision avoidance, with heaps of other safety features
