extremely deviant from the suburban norm. From other things too

one thing that always pithes me off, people build houses next to farmland,
then complain about the manure smell. And, they they cut down large tracts
of forest, then call the development 'Thousand Oaks' and then the home
owners complain about the deer wondering around the streets. AND......oh,
never mind......

So how was our timing?

Seahag


Out by nine minutes. Seahag first off the mark: Sun 10:46PM then
Katysails Sun 10:54 (both local TOA here).

Next time, factor in the different packet routes and servers and
get it properly simultaneous.

Begs the question....If you woke up naked with a condom hanging out of
your arse, would you tell anyone.


Sounds like one of those, ''my friend has this problem'' questions.

Ohhhh OK.


Good boy Ozzy, admitting your problem is the first step.

Most likely the OZ govt considers them dangerious and a hazard to its citizens.

Well, yes! And I'm glad to see someone else believes in doing
things right rather than half baked. Sometimes I feel I'm just a
lone voice crying in the wilderness as I attempt to guide peopel
on this newsgroup into , ahem, more appropriate behaviour.

That too. Public liability insurance payouts have been so huge
that insurance is impossible to get now for a whole lot of
things, and if i dug a bit, I'm sure I could find you cases where
someone (probably a burglar attempting a break and enter) was
awarded hundreds of thousands of doallrs because they slipped and
strained their ankle on an apple core from a fruit tree in a
backyard somewhere. This sort of litigation we picked up from
the world's best teachers.
