BEST LAWYER STORY OF THE YEAR, DECADE AND PROBABLY THE CENTURY Charlotte , North Carolina .

Is it normal for a fridge (Dometic) to turn of in the middle of night when on gas? Most times it will restart itself but occasionally it won't.

Don't wish to start a Blackfella bashing hour as I know and respect a lot of black fellas but after reading the GAFA whale watching post ( posted while I was away in the NT ) it brings home how much we give up and get bugger all in return.

For anyone looking for an adrenalin rush I can recommend v8 super cars. I did 8 laps in a commodore out at Mallalla raceway this afternoon, oh boy was it fun.

The seventh would pay $7. The eighth woul...

No Crowhursting is a phrase I hadnt heard before. It means dont send home cheerful false messages when things are going horribly wrong.
