    Yep. I used to think that the US was monochrome.. Not sure if anything's changed really.

    The landing wasn't broadcast,...... you're thinking of Armstrong stepping off the leg of the landing module to go for a walk.

    Saw the same thing on the B&W at primary school, live.

    They always were a little over cautious once Don Dunstan left politics. Holding back the tide was his gig:

    I thought wearing pastel coloured shorts was the basis of his downfall.

    Trains - planes or runners? walking might do it faster- Traffic

    Drove into and out of Melbourne this afternoon. One passenger on the way in and two on the way out. Not parked for more than 5 minutes honestly. 4pm till 7.40 pm! 12km each way! Trivia is I could have run it twice 3 years ago, train about 10 times in and out perhaps?


    Why anyone solo drives into traffic insanity is a bit beyond me! Live were your work or work where you live Honestly sorry for any poor sod trying to do that daily. 90% plus solo drivers

    Unfortunately many can not afford to live where they work & there are no jobs where they live.
    Add to that that Australia, in general, sucks at public transport & a whole lot of people are driving cars on their own.

    I am fortunate, my current job is 5 meters from my house (not always a good thing) & even in the new job I start in February it is about 1km.
