Bikky Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 In the same vein OME, . . . I often wonder, outside schools of all kinds at 'Going home time' . . . why there are dozens of large 4x4 chelsea tractors, driven by 'Mums' collecting kiddies, when there's nowhere for many miles around where anybody would conceivably need to take a car 'Off-road' . . . bit strange that. . . Depends on how open your definition of "off-road" is. Driveways, car-parks and the McDonald's drive-through are technically off the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacesailor Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Phil. The big 4x4's are much safer & have survivorbility if the school bus wants your exact parking spot. Also to have a second "small" car just for the school-run is ridiculous, sister-in-law takes her grand-kids to school in the Landrover, (used for caravan towing) how much to buy a Fiat500?. spacesailor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spacesailor Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Yes, but not a rear end'r. My daughters Corolla had the engine of a big six on the rear seat when he didn't look up from his phone. spacesailor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turboplanner Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 Stop it now!The erosion of the Anglo-Australian Culture has gone too far! I went to two supermarkets this morning to buy some Worcestershire sauce. When I enquired at the first one (the one from the EU), I was told they they did not stock it. On further enquiry, I was told that they got it sometimes in cartons of mixed sauces for Asian style cooking. The I went to the other major Australian supermarket - the one started in Melbourne by three brothers who served King and Country in WWl. I searched among a wide variety of sauces, soy, oyster, fish, peri-peri, American BBQ etc and was finally able to find a bottle of good old Holbrook's cringing in a corner on the lowest shelf. It's a disgrace. Our distinctive Aussie culture - the one that hundreds of thousands have fought and died for, is being lost in a sea of weird liquid accompaniments. If this continues, we'll soon lose tomato sauce for our footy pies and be forced to globalised hand-helds like hot dogs with ketchup. OME You may be of the mistaken belief that this country today has more than a very small portion of Anglo-Australians. In my City we have 153 Nationalities and I wouldn't be surprised if Anglo-Australians were down to less than 20%. You wouldn't get another Gallipoli here.

Marty_d Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 You wouldn't get another Gallipoli here. What, another botched military operation run by incompetent English generals that wiped out thousands of Australian lives for absolutely no gain? I should hope not.
