I took lessons, unsuccessfully. Don't go within a couple of km of water (other than in the shower or the sink).

Did you know that Australia is wider than the moon? The distance from Byron Bay to Dirk Hartog Island is 3998 km, and the diameter of the moon is 3474 km.

Me;bourne's lovely weather surely screwed up the F1 GP, with cars spinning and sliding everywhere, with 5 cars unable to finish , including Jack Doohan, and Oscar Piastri sliding onto the grass and losing about 14 places, but managed to recover and claw his way back into the points. Even Lewis Hamilton did a bit of a waltz.

And replace them with ignoramous child molesting kindergarten failures.

Flush him.

It's Ken Curtis,who played Festus in Gunsmoke.

Malcolm Turnbull wasted no words decrying the AUKUS deal. Says wwe will probably get none of the submarines. The agreement requires that the USN gets all theirs before we get any, and delivery is way behind schedule. He said Trump would love this agreement - "What idiots would agree to this?"

What would America import from the Houthis to slap a tariff on?

My wife and I decided we don't want children. It was a difficult decision, but we're telling them tonight.

What 6 letter English word means the exact opposite to itself when pronounced slightly differently?

Correct.

He uses Russian troops and any others he can rein in as cannon fodder to further his own ends.

That profile is correct Onetrack.

In one of many jobs I had after being retrenched from the bank, I worked for a software company which produced a computer program for managing hazardous materials, including Material Safety Data Sheets. In my role, I visited the GM plants at Elizabeth SA, Fisherman's Bend Melbourne, the truck factory at Dandenong, Ford Broadmeadows factory, Nissan Dandenong and Mitsubishi in Adelaide. Other non auto sites included Australian Paper Mills, Maryvale Vic, and Bundaberg Sugar Refinery, Qld.

I put my head in the noose by making very derogatory responses to some FB posts by MAGA lunatics, and keep getting the reply "We ar keeping you safe from the Chinese. If we withdraw our forces and abandon our bases, you would be overrun in no time." Only not quite so politely. They think they are doing us a huge favour.

Correct Pete.

What is the first number that when spelled out has its letters in alphabetical order? (30 sec time limit)

Here's one that might test you.

Absolutely agree Onetrack. I have never been on Tik-Tok, Whatap, X, or any of the video sites. I joined FB 15 years ago when I retired, as a means of keeping in touch with my old work colleagues, and many of my extended family members on FB. I have never used PayPal, rarely buy online, don't use tap-and-go on the phone, and don't have any apps, not even the bank app. It makes me mad these days when you want to do something like renew your rego or licence that you are supposed to use an app. Getting around that is a pain in th posterior. The other day I received an email. supposedly from a former colleague, saying "Some photos you may recall, particularly the first couple." On the email summary page, it looked like the genuine email address but when i placed the cursor on the sender, at the bottom of the screen it gave an address ending in .mx. I' wondering if some scammer has copied my address book.

Typical stupid Melbourne weather. Nearly two straight weeks of hot to very hot weather, with one day where it's pissing down rain - the day of the F1 Grand Prix. Let's hope it's not like that in two weeks, for the Avalon Air Show, not that I'm likely to go. I'm a bit beyond that now, but my daughter will probably go. She;ll have to take the photos for me.
