That gag was used by Jackie Clancy, who did a breakfast program on radio 3UZ Melbourne in the early sixties, with Bill Ackfield. They were known as Ackie and Jackie. Their show was pretty risque, such that when they moved to 3XY, they had to record their show an hour before broadcast time so it could be censored if necessary. Before I learned to fly, I took a joyride in a Hughes 269 helicopter at Moorabbin, and the pilot was Bill Ackfield. In another somewhat related incident, my first GA flight was in a Cessna 172 which was used by 3UZ to do traffic reports on the radio. It had a huge 3UZ painted under the wing, and the pilot on that occasion was the announcer Neil Thompson who used to do the traffic reports.

A bad couple of days in Victoria. Yesterday two police were shot dead and another injured when a man went on a rampage when they went to exercise a warrant. Today, a school bus near Geelong rolled over killing a girl and injuring many others, and a worker was trapped when a high crane crashed down at Derrimut.

Here's a place I had never heard of till it appeared on Facebook. Only a couple of hours away. Might be worth a trip. Pink Cliffs, Heathcote Vic.

The thread is Political Correctness, not Placenames. Can you imagine America banning photos of The Grand Canyon or Niagara Falls?

Hanging rock is to the north of Mt Macedon. The Macedon Regional Park and the township of Macedon are universally known as that.

If you say to someone, "I'll meet you at ngarrak nakorang wilam park", they'll say, "Where the hell is that?"

There is a large tract of land near our place which was the Healesville Freeway Reserve. It was decided the freeway would not be proceeded with, and it was decided the land would be turned into public parkland. It is about 3 km long. (The red arrow points to my street.) An email from our local member today advises that work is about to begin on installing playgrounds, walking and cycling tracks, tree planting, etc. All good, except it has an unpronouncable First Nations name: ngarrak nakorang wilam meaning “Mountain Meeting Place” – was chosen by the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung Cultural Heritage Aboriginal Corporation.

No-one else has any ideas? The numbers in the sequence represent the number of letters in each word of the sentence. eg. What = 4, is = 2, etc. The last word in the sentence is sequence, which contains 8 letters. So the last number of the sequence is 8.
