We can be sure that the results of the Australia v West Indies Test are hidden waaay down the back of tomorrow's newspapers after the amazing win by the Windies. What will be the excuses, I wonder, or will the umpires be deemed to have failed in their duty? Steve Smith should be retained as opening bats...

This event was described to us by a long standing teacher friend, who teaches Primary school. I have no doubts as to it's authenticity. A female 10yr old pupil arrives at school one day with a tail dangling from her waist and ears on her head. Thinking that this was a bit of fun the teacher, after everyone...

London's EV busses are having a tough time at the moment, three EV busses have burnt to the ground IN THE LAST TWO WEEKS. London has 380 electric busses so I wonder how many millions of pounds are going to be lost on this green experiment conducted on the public?

Today I had our van and tow vehicle weighed by Dion of Weigh station based in Bannockburn. He came up to Ballarat. Our tow vehicle is a 2019 Parjero and van is a 17 1/2 foot pop top Jayco. Passed well within compliance weights. Dion said Parjeros can be tricky because of the low rear axel weight. Thought it...

Hi all Nomads, Just thought I'd put it out there that we are moving on from Mount Barker and if any of you in WA are interested in a nice country property, message me.

Here we go again. Every time there is flooding people are told not to attempt to drive through it, yet we still have Richard Craniums who ignore the advice thus putting at risk the lives of those who have to rescue them and diverting resources from other areas.

I went to a meeting with my bank officer the other day. He was a young whipper snipper of about 25 who told me very patronizingly that he understood how someone my age wouldn't know how computers work and he would explain it simply for me. I proceeded to inform him that he may have grown up with computers...

Without going in to details, some "interesting" activities take place when there is only the driver in...
