He's 100% written a book about aliens while really stoned, yes.

If it's not published he probably just accidentally but it in the compost rather than letter box out of habbit.

Not to be confused with Grahame Bond, who played Aunty Jack in the very funny Aust. TV series decades ago.



I just learnt that Rory O'Donoghue, who played Thin Arthur in the show, suicided in 2017. Sad.

The answer is, mate, because I want to do you slowly. There has to be a bit of sport in this for all of us. In the psychological battle stakes, we are stripped down and ready to go. I want to see those ashen-faced performances; I want more of them. I want to be encouraged. I want to see you squirm.

We must never speak of this!
It's been a while, so imma throw in some old pics.

Melbourne CBD in 1972.
February 1972 was already a record-breaking month for Melbourne, 5 times the average rainfall dropped on the city. On the afternoon of Thursday the 17th, a storm cell dropped 72mm of rain in 20 minutes causing significant flash flooding to the southern part of the CBD.


(I think I've previously posted this one but I still think it's an amazing picture)


Heavy snow makes getting around in Katoomba a bit dicey in 1965.


The last day of operation of the Glebe Island Bridge in 1995, taken from the newly finished Anzac Bridge and the end of the decaying era for Pyrmont.


The old Sandridge Bridge at Southbank, Melbourne in the early 1900's serving its original purpose.


Melbourne skyline from Flinders Street Yard in 1963


The old Broadway Squats in Ultimo, Sydney remained very vocal about the number of empty buildings in the area while homeless folks that lived on the streets were 'moved' away from the CBD to make the city look more inviting to Olympic guests, this picture would have been early in their occupation of the properties, pre-2000 Olympics, which would last until 2001.


An enormous dust storm envelopes Melbourne on a sweltering, 43° day on the 8 Feb, 1983. (Footage of which was briefly used near the end of the third Mad Max movie, naturally)

These buildings are all still there, which is cool. Though they’re mostly Chinese restaurants and bubble tea counters these days. Not sure if people still live upstairs but I’d guess they’re occupied.

Last time we had snow anywhere close to that good here was 2015. There was no driving around cause even the police rescue guys in their landcruisers where struggling. Come 12pm a bunch of guys in 4x4's where doing laps to make the streets drivable. The traffic was hosed for days afterwards cause they kept shutting the highway so people would dump their cars where ever and go for a walk

Yeah, those fronts are old as balls, when they redeveloped the area they had to keep them. They would not be there otherwise.

Behind it was just old warehouses and factories, a lot of them were just corrugated iron over iron frames. I remember throwing old records odd the roof of it back in 2001 into the empty buildings, the noise was awesome.

They're a cut of chicken thigh which only has a single bone and therefore eats like a rib.

that seems to suggest you eat parts of as many as 10 chickens in one sitting

Really weird that chicken wings never really took off.

I ordered wings in 2016 or so and got four full wings done wingstyle. Que sudden realisation I was a proper emmigrant and Australia is actually a bit weird sometimes.
