Same as looking for a leak in a tyre. Pull it out & drop it in a tank a water. At least that’s how it used to be done. Just have to be careful you don’t give it too much air pressure.

Would it have come off someone’s hat. I have seen blokes with them on their hats.

Well all the kangaroos are here in the SW. Came home from Mandurah Saturday afternoon, just before we turned off Forrest Hwy there was a paddock full of them. I would defy anyone to count them, couple hundred at least, haven’t seen that many for years

Watts Gully Road. I know we were through the pine forest but looks like a lot of houses out there these days. Be nice to go for a drive through there just to have a look again. I know we walked around and back over a big hill.

If the country side hasn’t changed too much I think I could drive there , but live in WA now. Not sure if I can pick it out on google maps.

Found my first one at Mt Crawford about 45 yrs ago. First time I’d ever held a metal detector. 5grm & I’ve still got it. About 15 mts from where we parked. Good luck.

On another forum they are saying Thuraya have recovered services for Malaysia, Vietnam,western Indonesia most of China and some others I can’t remember. Said they are working on recovering the rest . Sorry don’t have a link

The story of the 2 eagles at Cocklebiddy is written up there somewhere. I think it’s on the front of the building, in front of the cage. I found it interesting, and yes they were both injured one local & one came down from up north of WA. Anyone I know that is crossing the Nullarbor I always...

Well played. Damn good story, thanks Norm

Haven’t been on here for a couple of years. Apprentice motor mechanic ’67 $16 a fortnight,lasted 10 months, much to my fathers disgust. Went to the abattoir @ $32/ wk I had hit the big time.

Retired wine maker down the road bought quite a large amount of shiraz in bulk from a winery that was going to bottle it and send it to china. As he knows the game he's had it bottled and we took some off his hands to help him out $60 doz. A very nice drop & will get better he said if put down...

Hi Goody I'm restoring a 1967 viscount ambassador and am a member of vintage caravans which covers vans made up to 1970. From 1/1/70 onwards the sister site is called Classic Caravan forum and I would suggest spending some time researching with them as to potential problems. It may well be the...

Couple of mates & myself used trap & sell rabbits foe 2 bob a pair. My family had a beach shack at a popular crabbing beach and my younger brother & I used to collect beer bottles. Hard to remember now but I think we used to get 3d a dozen and would get 6-8 bob at the end of the summer school...

What about the bloke that used to come around & check if you had a radio & TV license. My mother disliked them intensely. Im guessing all states had them.

10 years as a publican, recon I could open a few and be in charge of QC :)

1/10 And that was a guess :lol: Having a lot of trouble with my shoulders so I won't be helping dig a new cave Wishful :) :)

OK so my alternator may not charge up the battery but no one has mentioned the fact that I have 200w of solar panel on the roof going through a controller do we just ignore that fact? Or is that going to finish of the charging ? I'm interested to hear the advise on this.

I agree with that Nightjar. Had DC DC in my last vehicle and just top up battery from alternator while travelling in this one with 200w of solar panel on the roof for when I'm camped up. this is how Telstra had the batteries in back set up so I've left it as is. I recon if it needed a DC DC...
