Look out, Trev's turning into a paraphenalia man. If you rock up to Moffs this summer, he'll be the guy in boardies, boots, full length rashy, paddle gloves, Yassir Araf-hat, goggles of some description etc etc. :P It can't be helped Trev, you will hang with that loony sub culture of Goatboaters an...

Its just fact. We love chain supermarkets (coz we don't have much choice) etc but not restaurants and ca...

And while I'm rolling along...we're not so bloody smart either. Take note of the renewable energy developments in European countries with a fraction of the access to sun, wind and tide as Australia.

There was a thread a little while ago about tide heights in different parts of Australia and someone p...
