The ABC have won me over for a while.

Cute, looks like fun.

Thanks. Great information!

They said forced landing, reporter heard false landing. Repeated by ignorant editorial staff.

I understand the rednecks were Scots who wore a red cloth around their necks as a political statement when they arrived in America.

HF used to be the crackly radio you used in Designated Remote areas.

I have actually seen about a thousand budgies flying in a flock. A sight you would never forget.

Stop bragging my floppy is barely 4 inches

I knew about Vegemite and Marmite but this is new.

What does "feeling sick" mean? We have spent our lives with slightly sore throats, sniffles and so on and anyone might say "I will just see how I feel by the end of the day". I don't know whether I would isolate and get tested for a sniffle, I would wait to see if it turned into something more.

To see yourself coming you just need a mirror on the bedroom ceiling.

What are the pitfalls of mushing an aircraft?

Suspending that rule, they close at the speed of light. But perhaps from an outside observer they never meet because of time dilation?

DAME issued the medical, bunny cancelled it.

Commer is a truck. Comma is punctuayption. Thanks to autocorrect for that exposition!

It is just flaring for landing.

Lots of experience passengering in the 747 and A380. Both good, if you can be in business or at least premium. 747 always felt more solid and gutsy. I am sorry they are going, but the world has moved on and my memories are of a time past.

I have seen some of those mad face coverings.

They may be thinking of another persson.

I guess I should add caravanning to my list, seven trips in twelve months. Bogged to the axles today.
