The same reason I bought the whole run of “It ain’t arf hot mum” on DVD. They won’t rerun it here because it’s regarded as un PC.

and imagine the outcry if they showed "love thy neighbour"

Ukraine

A Russian wife turned to her husband and asked, "What's this special military operation our glorious leader keeps talking about?"

 
Her husband replied, "It's a proxy war between Russia and NATO."

 
"Oh, right. How's it going?"

 
"Well," he replied, "so far we've lost 24,000 soldiers, 2,000 tanks, 200 aircraft, numerous helicopters, and loads of armoured vehicles and artillery pieces, and  our flagship along with other naval pieces"

 
"Wow! What about NATO?"

 
"They haven't turned up yet."

Apparently, it wasn’t the raving poofta that was the problem, it was the browned up bloke in the turban.

We have a media bloke here in Oz, who 'Browns Up', sans turban, with no issues, apparently.

"Wow! What about NATO?"

Posted this on another forum & the response to that line was:

"Well, so far they're up two countries"!

Changed Lpg supplier.
Went from $178.00 plus $30 bottle rental, to $115.00, there is a $20 discount for being a first time customer.
So a $73 saving.

We're back from the 2022 Variety Bash.

Total raised for sick & under privileged kids across the State.....................

Just over 1 million dollars. 

Alot of needy kids will benefit from those funds.

Has gotta make anyone smile 

[Steffo1]

That's a good effort once again, Mark. Congratulations!

[Pottsy]

Well done Mark, great effort and I’m sure greatly appreciated.

From FB post -

‘ An old drover walks into a barber shop for a shave.
He tells the barber he can't get all his whiskers off because
His cheeks are wrinkled from age.   The barber gets a little
wooden ball from a cup on the shelf and   Tells the old drover to
put it inside his cheek to spread out the skin.
When he's finished, the old drover wanted to know what
Would have happened if he had accidentally swallowed that little
Ball.  The barber replied, "Just bring it back in a couple of days like
everyone else does. ‘

Had to get a prostate exam yesterday... what a horrible experience that was. Doctor had me in a cold dimly lit room and told be to take my pants off and bend over the end of the exam table. I asked him where i should put my pants & he said on the chair with mine

GREAT BIG SMILES TODAY.
Picked up this clean old girl yesterday.
It will take over from my Wolseley 24/80 on the Variety Bash from next year.

1980 CM Valiant with 265 Hemi 6cyl.Factory 3 speed auto with floor shift.
Factory air con & power steering. Has only 2 small rust spots. It was owned by a guy in Warwick who is a mechanic & auto sparky,so car has been very well maintained.New exhaust from front to rear.Already changed to electronic ignition and the engine has only 185 tho k's on it.
Has new carby on it as the previous owner removed the sometime troublesome ELB that those engines came out with.

Paid $5900. Just out of rego,but will be changing over to Historic/club plates anyway.

Very happy with the car as it will be continuing on with charity work for Variety,the children's charity.

Nice score... that engine bay looks far too clean LOL

[Jeepers Creepers]

Yep, good buy right there.

Check the right side chassis rail around the steering box.

It'll be cracked, rusted or both for sure..... easy enough fix and they all do it.

Give it some decent plate thickness when ya do the repair.

So what s happening with the od Wolseley.

Gday Kev.
The wolseley will available for wedding/formal hire. Instead of the money going to myself,it will go into my fundraising to help the kids of Variety.A donation to charity so the car will still play its part.

I've always liked the old Valiants. I had a 225 slant 6, AP6 with Impala floor shift, when I was a young fella and wish I still had it. 

[GeoffA]

They had a rust problem in the plenum, but that one looks OK.....
