Dunedoo is closer to Sydney than it is to Hay, I'd reckon.

When I was a kid you either liked V8 Aussie muscle cars or high performance Japanese cars. I was mostly the latter. I drooled over Porsche's and Ferrari's but even then I was a little more realistic and ended up wanting cars that I was more likely to afford. One of them was the Mazda RX7. Have a cousin who had a mate who was a successful plumber back in the 80's and he bought a brand new Phase 2 Mazda RX7. I drooled over that car and the last of them was one of my favourites, the legendary drift king.

Anyway this is the new one expected to be released in 2017 to coincide with the 50 year anniversary of the rotary engine. Wow! Always loved Mazdas. What do you think? What cars did you admire as a kid?

Either a bbq or a carburetor.

yeah - it had green socks on it - so i don't think it was a bbq

A webber?

I'm not particularly into cars, but I did like Peter Brock and the 05 Torana/Commodore etc. We used to live near Alan Grice for a few years, and he gave me a hard time for supporting one of his opponents. I was only 6 ffs.

Raw and mean

The merkin who killed the young mum of the body in the suitcase girl appeared in court today from Maitland Jail where he is doing time for something else.

He did not apply for bail and it was refused by Magistrate Chicken.

Does it come with a complimentary "I have a small wang" tattoo on the forehead?

My old man bought a Lada Niva when I was younger. It was the biggest piece of shit ever and used to overheat if the temperature happened to get higher than about 25 degrees.

Lol my wife when we were dating was looking at changing cars. We went to a lada dealership and the sales guy was doing hid best to sell it.

My wife who is nice was agreeing and was behaving like she was going to buy it. I was going wtf in my head.
I recall the front seat was a bench seat
However, she did not buy it but bought a daihatsu feroza instead.

Tony Abbott's Thatcher address was even too conservative for the conservatives. His position on northern hemisphere asylum seekers was shockingly harsh. He sighted quotes from his Jesus (love thy neighbour), yet inferred it does not apply to those from Syria.

Barry Cassidy said this morning ..

This week Tony Abbott broke free of the shackles and exposed his creed: a fundamental rejection of negotiation and compromise, and a refusal to allow compassion to get in the way of a nation's self-interest.

Delivering the Margaret Thatcher lecture at London's Guildhall, Abbott insisted it's strong leadership that makes a difference.

His definition of strength?

Thatcher on the Falklands, he said, "did not see an Argentine grievance to be negotiated, but a monstrous violation of British sovereignty".

No negotiation.

Fight. Fight. Fight.

He urged Europe to study Australia's experience, turning boats around and denying entry at the borders. "It will require some force," he declared.

Fight. Fight. Fight. Even against desperate refugees.

Are all men now considered really equal ? Did you know that slavery was abolished in 1865 ? I wonder how far we have actually come in the past 150 years ?

Anyone watch Ash vs. Evil Dead?

My highly educated tip for the Melbourne Cup - which took me all of 5 mins to figure out

13. The Offer

my reasoning
- paying lots of $s (yeah maybe thats not a good thing)
- did good over 2400 last start (I think)
- colours: blue with gold stars (how can you go wrong)
- number 13 starting from barrier 13 (meant to be unlucky but it won't be)

triffecta: 13, 10, 8
