    Thank you Goonerhater. My daughter got dressed in her $2 Australia Day top and bizarrely our local park had a "Celtic Meet" with lots of men in kilts and bagpipes all over the place. That's multicultural Australia for you!

    Then some friendly aborigines went and f***ed it up by harrassing the Prime Minister, although it was that goon Tony Abbott that got them wound up. No excuse however.
    I continue to be mystified by the aboriginal plight (as do the vast majority of Australians)
    as they have had a rough deal, but there seems no way out that they are able/prepared to take.

    Anyone doing anything for Burns night? I'm drinking Fraoch Heather Ale whilst listening to Pink Floyd's "Several Species". Life don't get much better!

    I've got a bottle of Irn Bru in the fridge for special occasions.
