    Are you serious????????????? Can you get some for me pretty, pretty, pretty please .... (Lots of grovelling!)

    Regarding the cooling system, going to take off the skulls, see if that makes a difference. If not, will have to investigate the cooling system further. (Was really hoping that wouldn't be the case).

    I have some good rams skulls and know here there are plenty more. I will pick a few up in August when I go there after Louth races.

    The only sculls/pelvii/ or other bones I've collected damaged my car, mind you they were still encased in flesh and blood and behaving eratically.

    Yea, I thought it was probably a cow.. young bull, whatever (I know nothing about cattle, didn't realise both male & female goats had horns 'til I got Ziggy & Zelda).

    Same ... but not family history. Least I know about my family, the better! Always loved cemeteries though ... spent a lot of my youth in cemeteries! As for old medical stuff, don't even want to know about the modern medical stuff! That falls in the category of my love (not) of snakes!

    Don't knock it, I enjoy it too. Particularly at churches, they seem to be the oldest, you can almost touch the history. Some of the kids graves can bring a lump to the throat though.

    MN, have you been to the hospital museum in Thargomindah? I think you would like it. It is in the original hospital building, and appears to be a complete late 1800s- early 1900s outback hospital. Some of the equiptment looks as if it has been stolen from the Nazis.

    Looking at the large skull on the right, my first thought was Wombat.


    ........Then again, I've never knowingly seen a wombat skull.

    My father,being a biologist had heaps of skulls.I remember many years ago he came home with a whale skull in the trailer,picked it up on Fraser island,did it stink
    He was working with the staff at Qld museum,& thats where it ended up.We did have a Dolphin skull at home that was from & earlier trip.
    A human skull also appeared,i think it came from the Winton area of central Qid.It was identified as a teenage aboriginal girl,was very old .It is now in the possesion of the Qld museum.Not something we wanted hanging around home

    Oh,the cooling system in the Series needs a bit more investigation........

    I'd kill for a human skull! (not literally you understand!) I got in big trouble when I was little digging under the house looking for bones ... had candles burning & the smoke came up through the floor. My mother called the fire brigade ... oops!

    Just becasue you changed your thermostat a couple of months ago doesn't mean its not that....

    in the uk when we had over heating troubles Ian was unlucky enough to have fitted 2 dodgy thermostats.... It happens so dont over look it! can you pull the thermo out and see if the temp still rises?

    My other suggestion is can you be sure that your rad was done properly if rodded etc..

    We had bad over heating issues with our disco V8 we knew it wasn't the radiator as 6 months before we had the radiator rodded.....finally after changing everything we had the radiator out again and it was 80% blocked and spent a day in an acid bath. once done car ran like a dream.
    Our Land Rover does not leak oil! it just marks its territory.......
