I generally enjoy your posts, BUT what has this to do with grey nomads. We have ABC news on line if we want the news.

IMHO Too much off topic stuff is creeping onto this site and it takes away from the enjoyment of the site and it takes additional time to sort the "wheat from the chaff".

This is in "I digress" Baz.......not everyone has the time or access to read the news, also not all stories are repeated in every state on ABC online.   

It may interest you to know that some GN's frequent Bali and are interested in what happens there, as a matter of fact Yeoeleven left his then campervan at my place while he flew there from Perth.

I would suggest if you don't like the subject title (quite clear) then don't read it.

My thread is fully within the terms of posting to "I Digress" and I certainly don't make any apology for it, it is you who is out of order IMHO.

Thanks blaze, as the description for "I digress" says "Grab a cuppa and join us for a friendly off topic chat" I liken it to chatting at happy hour, if we didn't discuss what is what is on the news in off topic or around a camp fire/happy hours things would be pretty dull.

 Baz this is I digress and what Vic has posted is quite relevant if you do not like what he posts then don't read them but please stop your whinging.
