Today's the day we celebrate the invading of OZ by the poms. back in 1770. It's a day of eating lamb chops and drinking shed loads of beer as noted by our own Sam Kekovich see below (and yes it's parody for those without a sense of humour... Smile

).

So I'm off to the pub to have a BBQ lunch and get plastered Smile

drikko,

You beat me to it.

Saw it on my calendar and wanted to wish all of you on the other side of the planet a good Australia Day. Have one (or more) for me.

John

For whatever it's worth, my son-in-law arrived in Perth this week-end, starting work at the Cleveland Cliff mines immediately; my daughter will follow shortly.

She decided that transporting the K75 wasn't worth the effort, so now it's up to you guys in Oz to find her a bike (after she gets used to your traffic).

For them, it's the antithesis of being sent to a penal colony, but they (and I) are delighted by their opportunity.

That's awesome Larry, unfortunately they're about 5000kms from here so mightn't be able to help them with a bike. As to getting used to the traffic, where they are there isn't any, but whats there will be on the wrong side of the road!! I got used to driving on the wrong side of the road when living in Santa Cruz for a while so they should do OK Smile
