Very positive story, makes me optimistic about the future. Australia had better get it’s finger out before we’re left behind by Africa!

Flightrite Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 Australia should be at the forefront of this as we are a 3rd world nation with a 1st world facade on so many fronts! 2 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IBob Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 Amazing, yes!
