There were 24, there are now 12. I will have more in 2 weeks. They're only $20 each. These suit anyone wanting to...

hats off to those in our armed forces and emergency services for the wonderful work they do (and sometimes for the terrible work they have to do). At this stage it is airfoce and federal police and i just heard on the news the navy is sending a ship there. The death toll has just be revised to 125,0...

it's $2 plus GST as most things are $2.20

Not interested in that. got a 4x4 to get places. not just to...

When Team Uneven Distrubution went from Dubbo to do A-DAG, I think it took us the better part of 13 hours or so. :shock: It was a long trip from Melbourne to Dubbo, 1,000kms give or take. Luckily, we had regular rest, stretch and cache breaks along the way. 8) just to add to that, the 13 hours or s...
