Rourkes Drift is a good spot for a beer



(at least it was in 2000 when we were on leave from ET... but then anything not burnt and with electrickery was considered flash on leave :) )

I thought this thread was going to be about someone proving the existence of God.

Thank goodness. Imagine the trouble that'd cause.

No Breaking News about Tracy 2 so I guess the landing was pretty ordinary and Darwin has at least survived the arrival stage. .................... but who knows what will occur in the next few days. :o :angel: :wasntme:

I had a similar thought - Dave had perhaps found evidence to prove that Charles Darwin's theories were bunkum. Then again, looking for evidence of evolution in Ipswich......:angel:

You could nearly say the same about the state in which Ipswich resides in :p

I'm positive that the city of Ipswich is very proud of the fact that they were the first place in Australia that Jamie Oliver looked at and thought "jeez, they need some help" :D

You can only nearly say the same about the rest of the state. Particularly given that my next door neighbours have recently competed in a weight loss based reality TV show. :o

Darwin has a 24 hour reprieve.....

someone needs to learn how to fix planes proper.....

(or the pilots need to worry less about warning lights about doors that wont close)

I assume it was yours.
They were reporting on a flight cancellation on the RN 5 o'clock news.

I would be exceedingly worried if my flight details were announced cancelled or otherwise.

I assume you weren't going on a commercial flight then.
Maybe air travel is not as safe as they say. Two cancellations then.

You on a super secret squirrel mission again Dave, and they're flying you in in a SR-71?

No, but if people know what flight he's on, they'll come and ask him to fix something.

I think after last weeks effort I'm being reclassed as "An Area Effect weapon" and will be air dropped in from orbit.


honestly with the budget the way it is I will refuse to be surprised if they ressurect a zepplin and make us pedal there in that.
