Re: Coffs Harbour artificial reef plans in limbo
With Sydney running out of sand, theres a thought of dredging sand from out at sea. I'm no scientist but would that not mean that the trenches that are made by the dredges would soon be filled in by sand further ashore and so forth causing coastal erosion? If that's so would sand banks become a thin...

Re: Ask Carroll
Nick,
Just on the Narcissism comments a few pages back. You being the one here who's met the most world title holders, Do you think a bit of narcissism is a pre requisite for becoming world champ?

Re: The national war on bikie gangs
Apparently the Finks in response to being labelled a criminal organisation have patched themselves over to a bigger USA club.
"The worlds deadliest", if The Australian is to be believed and there gonna shoot any cops that pull them over.

Re: Finally made the big time. Roxy Pro ad - SEXIST
Has anyone else thought this,"Controversy", was all part of Roxy's plan to begin with?
