    In that case, maybe it should be called the Ludwig Leichhardt award. At least King made it back alive and they found the bodies of Burke and Wills. They are still looking for Leichhardt and his five white men, two Aboriginal guides, seven horses, 20 mules and 50 bullocks.

    However, in that case I suppose it would have to be awarded posthumously.

    There could be the 'Vlad award' for carrying on with the biggest BS story ever told on Aulro and then not knowing when to stop.

    Not quite the 'tiger by the tail' rather the 'tiger by the head' award I was thinking...

    Mind you it may never be won by anyone else if the yard stick is the 'Tigers head' thread.

    cheers,
    Terry

    Mmm I think I am with you TerryO. Ok Let's say have "Award for long running thread.....that is worth reading"



    So far:


    • 3 Amigos Award, to the person with the most faults.(Vehicle or Member)
    • Dig Tree Award for most spectacularly failed (or never commenced) expeditions/trip.
    • Member most likely to be banned to the bigggest pot stirrer. (Need a name for that one?)
    • Anorak Award for services to Rivet Counting
    • Green Award for vehicle most envied/covetted by other members.
    • Screen Hog Award for the biggest signature block
    • Round two-it Award for the the most consistent "gonna get a....."
    • Bolle Award for the most garrish paint scheme
    • Bower Bird Award for consistent hoarding


    How am I going? Amendments, input, suggestions?

    I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food

    A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking
