  1. Best not to get me started. But think what it would be like if the Tea Baggers Party was in power in the US. That's what it's like here at the moment. I've never been so ashamed to be an Australian.

    Me as well! Our local "Feral Member of Parliament" is the renowned Bananaby Joyce. He who'd stick a dam on every stream, he who said that "global warming is rubbish because it is cold today!", and he who'd not know his ar$e from his elbow!

     

    God help us, we need a double dissolution! SOON!

  2. It is very common to have a swimming pool here in Perth, and I am sure that is the case in most of Australia.

    We don't have one here in Tamworth. Many do, though! I had one once, spent so much more time cleaning the bloody thing than actually swimming in it!

    It seemed like a good idea at the time, kids could cool off after school in summer, I could cool off after work in summer! Didn't quite work out that way.

     

    For a start, every bloody tree for miles around dropped their leaves in MY pool! Needed an hour a day just to keep it from going green! Cost a fortune in chlorine and electricity. I cannot recall now as it was over 20 years ago, but I do remember promising myself, when I left that house, that I'd never have a pool again and if I wanted to have a swim, I'd go to the council pool! Some other poor sucker can do the cleaning!

  3. The Bonneville Salt Flats is famous for daredevils driving jet-powered motors at more than 600mph.

    But madcap mates Phillip Weicker and Duncan Forster hope to set a more relaxing record when they head there next month.

    They have spent the past six years transforming a 1969 Cadillac DeVille from a convertible car into a moving hot tub.

    The duo, with the help of friends, have successfully converted the Cadillac into a fully running, fully functional hot tub, which they want to make history in.

    Under the bonnet of the 'Carpool DeVille' is a whopping 7.7-litre V8 engine which develops around 375bhp
