Lol!!...I wouldn't know!!

When I got home i thought I'd been dudded because of all this black crap ( which was grease) all over it. But when I'd cleaned all the grease off, I found the rifle to be virtually "NEW", the stock was unmarked, & the blueing was still present where the bolt slid, as if it had never been used?
Pickles.

The brother of a friend of ours in Brisbane died of the virus in London overnight. He was married with three young boys. Its very sad. He was going okay, but then hit the crucial 10 day mark and deteriorated rapidly.

Sorry to hear that Mick.

Yes, Bunnings, as with most foreign owned multi national businesses will stay open during this time.


It's the small local ones that are going to suffer,

Sadly, I have to mention the loss of a few further local businesses around here.

The bra manufacturer has gone bust, the specialist in submersibles has gone under, the manufacturer of food blenders has gone into liquidation, a dog kennel has had to call in the retrievers, the deck chair company has folded, the Heinz factory has been canned as they couldn't ketchup with orders, the tarmac laying company has reached the end of the road, the bread company has run out of dough, the clock manufacturer has had to wind down, the Chinese restaurant has been taken away, the shoe shop has had to put his foot down, and given his staff the boot, the fish shop went belly up -the staff were gutted! The Vet has gone to the dogs, it's curtains for Interior Decorators and the launderette has been taken to the cleaners.

Bra factories never seem to last long on the Gold Coast.

They just don't seem to be a big selling item in that part of the world.

Very sorry to hear that Disco.
When one hears something like this, it brings it "close", and shows that younger people can be hit too.
No idea where He contracted it?

Right, where's the nearest wall to place them in front of? "No blindfolds we want you to see what happens to scum like you."
