Re: Mad, Bad, and Sad: Global

Sounds more fun than we had. I was city schooled, had rels in the bush though so got to see both sides of life. I vaguely recall those 'skills'/crafts days but they didn't go on past primary school. The silliest thing we did at school was learning the Maypole dance. Is there a more useless naff wast...

Re: Weather

They'd be clearing the shelves of toilet rolls here. wtf is it with toilet rolls?? they left the more practical stuff, like pasta and canned food and grabbed all the toilet rolls. And that was only for Covid lockdowns, be interesting to see what they'll grab if there's a flood coming, toilet rolls w...

It's still a thing here - kids train a calf or lamb and take them to school for a day. Great fun.
Haven't heard anything about it in Oz but i haven't heard a cow in a long time either.

Re: Weather

Right about the News value dropping here when it turned it's eye elsewhere so to speak. You'd better hope that it won't follow the law of averages and take one of those less likely tracks matey. But some of the puff will be taken out of it that far south won't it? I only recall a couple ever coming ...

Re: Mad, Bad, and Sad: Global

Ah geeze now you blokes are making look a bad person for not liking cows, at least while they're vertical.

I'm okay with little poddy calves if that's a mitigating factor? except when they stomped on my feet when feeding them. :o

Re: Mad, Bad, and Sad: Global

My money would be on the dog stirring them up and her trying to 'rescue' it. Darwinism. Just can't love cows. I can admire a nice meaty Ab Angus but just can't raise the urge to cuddle one. The most surprising thing about them that I found when an uncle had started running Xherefords was their total...

Re: Aussie v NZ

Everyone in Lebanon has a relative in Sydney so that's the prime destination. They've fitted in probably the best and fastest of any of the migrants. Dunno what's it's like down there now but I worked with a lot of them when they first began pouring in and got along with all of them. Male and female...
