Thank you Gumbud for that amazing insight into tribal practices, what’s perfectly normal to some is weird to others, but that’s the way it was meant to be and who are we to change it, and some things you just have to get used to. I assume that’s what the smiling Australian man said when he got back to civilisation, and all the while singing “I am a Yam…”
Human internal Combustion is on the increase I’ve been reading, my Uncle Joe is a keen fisherman and has been on a fishing trip to Norway, we hadn’t heard from him for a few months until I got this postcard last Friday and I’m worried sick about him.
I think it’s RJ practicing his new fangled gadgets and not quite there yet! - he did mysteriously say he was going away again having just returned from the Lake district - has he got pink wellies?
I was reminiscing while lying out in the sun today, what a great joy retirement can be on a sunny day. Hero’s of yesterday came to mind.
As a boy I loved reading the comic books, thrills and adventure was what I was after and to hell with Girls, all they ever did was cry and play with stupid Dolls, making them imaginary cups of tea in tiny cups and saucers.
One of my favourites was Frank (bring 'em back alive) Buck. I never missed an issue. One story that always sticks in my mind was when Frank was confronted by two savage Tigers approaching from either side of a huge tree. he had only one bullet left but Franks quick thinking saved the day. He produced his Bowie knife and flung it at the tree, then he took careful aim at the blade of the knife and fired splitting the bullet in two and killing both Tigers at the same time, beat that Batman, Spiderman, or even James Bond, todays heroes are only pussies in comparison.

I’m not sure Gumbud, but there was I lying out in the garden thinking about the jungle and Frank Buck suddenly sprang into me mind. What price a dozen of eggs where you are?
Very dangerous as you say, and expensive them croc eggs, cost an arm and a leg. Speaking of crocodiles how’s the Paul Hogan fella getting on, he must be pushing 80 by now.
If gravity is a magnet at the earths core holding everything on earth down, including the oceans, how come my very strong magnet can’t lift a tiny drop of water off a plate?
With all due respect Jem, I think you are confusing Magnetic Attraction with Gravity [Large Masses attract smaller masses]
Take me and my missus for example.
