    O/T? Soul Music

    Soul music has always been a bit 'late mid century' for my tastes (hence the O/T moniker). I heard some tracks by Irma Thomas and Solomon Bourke recently that made me pause and rethink. My tastes are wide and varied (mid century and earlier only), it occurred to me I might be missing...

    Golden Era Aircraft

    Depends on what you call golden era, I have always been intrigued by the F82. I understand they saw action in Korea. Lining one up on a target, or even a runway would be interesting.

    Bed Bugs and Safe Collecting

    As I understand it, AQIS targets arrivals from designated higher risk areas. Not all imports are fumigated prior to hitting the sorting centres. At any rate, given the way some parcels are sealed, fumigation would be only partly effective. T
