My feeling exactly. Of course we could try the old british dissmisal of the series by claiming one day cricket to be 'just not cricket'.... But nah we're Australian and we need to win everything!!!! Well done poms though, gave us the kick in the ass we need!:lol:

Great clip and a great Pic! Im not sure if the shade is different to be honest. I think its the same as the USAF, cant see much point in it being different....:?:

Nah not because of the food mate, but because it was built in England! :lol:

Have to agree with Wildcat on the U-571 call. Its crap. Good point on Master Commander. A truley excellent movie and my personal favourite movie of the last 10 years.

Didnt the Sydney serve in Korea?

Band of Brothers, like others have said, is awesome! If you havent seen it Emac, trust me mate, go borrow it from the video shop. Tora Tora Tora is a great movie, as is Patton. Also Kakoda, a great war film which is actualy kinda scary at the same time!

A shame.:( Great aircraft, a true airlift asset. I cant wait to one of our four at the up-coming Avalon airshow!

Shame to see him go, a great sportsman if nothing else.

true true lol

That bloody urn better stay here this time. No excuses. I think that we shouldnt let it go through customs if they decide to take it back. That'll teach them!

I hang my models with a thumb tack and fishing line. But yeah, the dust sure does pile up on them. For the more detailed ones I usally try to display them on a base. I saw in a magazine a few weeks back a guy who mounted them on the wall. He had quite a collection, but I never read the article...

Nah mate I was stuck at work all weekend. Luckily I work at a place with a bunch of other sports fans though, so we had a little telly to keep track of things! Mostly had to catch the days highlights on Fox. Yesterday I had two tickets offered to me, but I was committed to a family run up to...
