    Boeing-Stearman 75 crash at DCA...

    Damn shame. The article says the plane flipped upside down, but it looks more like a nose over in the pics. Left it too late to pull back on the stick during the landing run? Probably happened a lot on these babies during basic training. I hate seeing this stuff just the same. I'm going...

    Car in the movie " TOPPER "

    Hey welcome to the lounge! This is the very question that bought me to the lounge. One of my favourite scenes in the movie is where they run off the road and you can hear the engine idling. I'd swear you can hear each and every plug fire. Great stuff

    Speaking of Drive Ins?

    There is a nice one in Dromana here in Vic. You can still eat at flecked laminate tables in the snack bar:) . Sadly, as Lizzie mentioned earlier, they have added extra screens to stay viable.

    Speaking of Drive Ins?

    Drive in movies, aaahh good times. Back when I was a kid, you could tell if a movie was good or not by where it premiered. Good films would start at the cinema and migrate to the drive in. The longer it took, the more popular it was. If it premiered at the drive in, well...... I know...

    That's pretty bad, but I respect the fact you are wearing it. Bonus points surely.

    Gardens vegetable, flower or other?

    Thank you tony, much appreciated, I'll pass your kind words on to my wife. She's the brains of the outfit;) . Of all luxuries, privacy is the one we value most, so we eventually opted for a bit of land around us and lots of high fences. I'm faced with a longer commute, but its worth it at...

    Hallmarks of a good tie.

    The quality of the tie is in direct proprtion to the likelihood of spilling something on it the first time you wear it. Dont ask.....:o

    Gardens vegetable, flower or other?

    Good eyes TonyB! Yep, the small one is bamboo, the larger one wood. We picked it up from a tropical supply place nearby. Only problem is its so light that you only need an anaemic hamster breath of a wind and it wants to take off. We put the pool in ourselves - what an episode. The...

    Gardens vegetable, flower or other?

    Thanks Binkie, it isn't easy:) . Over summer, poolside cocktails are a regular feature, even if its just my wife and me. She is a natural mixologist so we get a lot of practice. There are couple of spotlights aimed into the canopy and some fairly large citronella torches that give just...

    [article] Age appropriate dress for men.

    For me, the issue with shorts is how long they are and what footwear people choose to wear with them. Having said that, they will only ever be casual wear or work wear.
