    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Enjoyed 'The Purple Plain' just the other night. As previously stated, worth it for the Mozzies alone.

    The Awning

    Not quite the same - the type commonly used here: http://www.shadewell.com.au/outdoor-blinds-awnings/drop-arm-awnings-Melbourne Probably known by another name in the US. These stay attached all year and just take a few moments to retract.

    I wonder how one would stack up against the speeding green Nash I'm always hearing about on 'Barrie Craig, Confidential Investigator' :)

    Vintage Mailboxes?

    I can confirm that Postal services take mail theft extremely seriously. Community trust is recognised as a key indicator. So is service performance, but is more and more being squeezed by margin In the main, postal staff at the operational coal face are deeply committed to the task at...

    You know you are getting old and grumpy when…

    Let's See Your Watches! The Vintage Watch Thread.

    Nice KonTiki In an early 60's vein, here is a 1964 Heuer Carrera re-edition Strictly this is a homage watch as Heuer didn't issue this watch in 1964 anyway, but I couldn't afford a Heuer Daytona chronograph, or the car to go with it, so....

    The Awning
