  1. actually i'll concede that, though i can't remember one personally. i'll put that down to a bad memory for the sake of harmony edit" i think rhino might be an exception (at least in his mind) but....maybe i'm mistaken, or maybe you are
  2. yes, but that is for the confessions thread
  3. i once saw bobby and laurie
  4. i thought sensible posts here were banned
  5. i once thought greenies lived in the country
  6. don't think they swallowed it, bigg, more like they injected it
  7. actually earl, more like spray-paint and cheese
  8. actually, old chap, shades of grey (with a little bit of beige)
  9. i was visiting a friend who is pulling up stumps and going to live in a farmhouse in sw frogland he offered me carte blanche on his extensive library
  10. i drove through fitzroy yesterday on the way to north carlton i wish i hadn't
  11. ` jara, i think you missed my point as i said i don't doubt his skills my point was he is comparing apples and oranges when he says "the worst since settlement" the data he has on recent fires is a thousand fold more detailed (and scientific) than that available from the 19thc and early 20thc. heck, they didn't even have fire scientists then my reference to flannery-like statements were to some of flannery's preposterous predictions that he has been ridiculed over (deservedly) if he had just said "one of" the worst fires on record i would have accepted that, but he just went a step too far, as did flannery (at least in your telling) that was my only point cheers edit:corrected centuries
  12. it's your punishment for reading the rage, earl p.s. quite a lot of very desirable suburbs ranked poorly. must be a socialist plot
  13. *rapt edit: as in rapture
  14. it was probably a grammar mistake (spl) or toned down a tad
  15. seems there is a dicks creek for all demonland tastes murrundindi looks the one for me (and it's nice and close) bbo obviously would have his eye on guyra and biffo can settle for jindera p.s. lamentable lack of apostrophe in all four
  16. that's very encouraging to know, doc, but disappointing to hear the philistines are on the move and gentrifying such a gem of colonial heritage. seeing as romsey is victoria's equivalent to hopping dick creek i don't think bitters would be too tempted to make such an odyssey i've also been keeping an eye on happy dicks creek just over the border. it's appealing to an ageing chap as all that hopping is playing hell with my knees.
  17. just trying to build up my cv so i can qualify to emigrate to hopping dicks creek, doc it's a race against the grim reaper though
  18. murray from wodonga..........that;s just weird
  19. that zenobia staue seems nice earl. picked up a few relics myself lately from palmyra. great prices too.
  20. wouldn't be heather's lad would it?
  21. i suppose that to reach that conclusion your fire scientist must have studied all those same measurements on the reports of the fire scientists from the 19th century and early 20th century? i'm sure your fire scientist is a smart guy and knows his fire science but why go ahead and make a flannery-type statement like that? it just loses him credibility
  22. maybe cross and howe playing all 22 games had a lot to do with it
  23. is this the post?
