    Peter COSGROVE, a great choice for GG

    first a timeline on COSGROVE

    Peter Cosgrove Timeline - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)

    the announcement,

    Peter Cosgrove named as next governor-general, will replace Quentin Bryce in March - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)

    in my opinion a great choice.

    And I must say other than a couple of faux paus, Quentin BRYCE has done an excellent job (to my shame I didnt think she'd be any good, glad to admit I was wrong!)

    Totally agree with you Digger; he did an excellent jo* after Larry. There can't *e an Australian who doesn't hold him in high esteem.

    I told them I wouldn't get out of ed for less than half a mill; that increased Peter's chances.

    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

    Tony didn't even ask me. I think he knew that he would have to compromise with Cosgrove.
