  1. Brisbane has had a FLY-PAST for ANZAC.

    even if it was Forbidden.

    BUT they're not getting fined !.

     

    Billionaire Kerry Stokes and his wife Christine Simpson Stokes have made a surprise visit to Canberra to commemorate Anzac Day at the Australian War Memorial after the WA government granted them exemptions from hotel quarantine on medical grounds.

    AND he's not getting a fine either, for leaving Western Australia.

  2. OneTrack

    Long before the European hoards invaded.[FLOATL][/FLOATL]

    Vikings, saxons, normans and romans.

    The English, Scot and Welsh, lived a rural lifestyle

    .Not a million between them.

    ALL the english were wiped out by the fourth wave of invaders.

    Now our ancestors are french roman and anybody that could find a nice looking english partner.

    SO that gene pool is much bigger the than expected ,!.

    My own is English Austrian as well as the other four.

    The wife is Spanish Irish plus the other four.

  3. "Space makes a good case for how people survived tough times in the past. The suburban block was big enough to grow food and keep chooks. Cities used to provide a third of their own food.

    Not now, those villa blocks are future death traps. And apartments more so.

    The reason blocks were so big was because of the need to keep your outside dunny away from the neighbors a bit. "

     

    We had an outside dunny, it was a share with two other families, and the Yard was concrete. not a blade of grass in our whole street.

    we also shared that ONE water tap, and had to save water in winter to Unfreeze it, by poring boiling water over the tap-stand.

    sometimes the lead pipe was split then we ( the 3 family's ) had to repair it ourselves. No blowtorch or fancy tools then just a bucket of fire and a piece of boot leather, to wipe a lead joint.

    HO, what fun, and foul language plus the smell of burnt arm hair.

    Those were the days. ( I hated). Never wiped lead pipe in Australia. LoL

  4. " . Until then clothes and shoes got mended and jumpers got knitted and people preserved fruit from a neighbours apricot tree and had chooks for the eggs and occasional special treat, ate one of the chooks.. Nev "

    Sounds a Lot like Blacktown. Now,

    And an orange for the Christmas treat.

    One year we had Topsey and Snowey for Christmas dinner, didn't go down well. as we would have liked to have eaten the neighbour's cat rather than our Pet rabbits.

  5. From a quick observation.

    Two plugs together has a single flame front.

    Two plugs on oposite sides has twice the fronts, giving half the time to cover the same distance.

    On the Lyc with one off, the only plug has to travel twice that distance.

    Hopefully makes a little bit of sence. LoL

  6. " Sadly, the imbecile right wing propaganda machine is in full swing and on this thread.

    They don't care who dies or how many nor those far greater numbers who will recover but with permanent damage. To them.......

    Science is just fake news

    Statistics and epidemiology are fake news "

     

     

    " The Chinese government is reportedly attempting to censor research by scientists into the origins of the coronavirus.

    as universities in Wuhan have reportedly published new requirements for academics seeking to publish studies on the topic.

     

    The revelation that the Wuhan Institute was experimenting on bats from the area already known to be the source of

    COVID-19 - and doing so with American money - has sparked further fears that the lab,

    and not the market, is the original outbreak source.

    Lawmakers and pressure groups were quick to hit out at U.S. funding being provided for the

    'dangerous and cruel animal experiments at the Wuhan Institute'.

     

    The Wuhan Institute lists them on their website as a partner as well as several other American academic institutions.

    Other U.S. partners include the University of Alabama, the University of North Texas, Harvard University,

    and the National Wildlife Federation.

    As part of the NIH research at the institute,

    scientists grew a coronavirus in a lab and injected it into three-day-old piglets.

    According to one unverified claim,

    scientists at the institute could have become infected after being sprayed with blood containing the virus,

    and then passed it on to the local community. "

    More Fake news ?.

    I just read and do not analyse !.

    Then if Interesting PASS it on.

    Is that Imbecilic.
