The Sheik Of Scrubby Creek. A wonderfully funny man who was also so kind. I will never forget his concerts and the laughter that he brought.😭

What about getting the ai to write an app for android that just displays the ABC clock full screen and updates the current time from an NTP server every day? Could put old phones to good use as a desk clock.

Well done! I really love the ABC clock. I had previously looked at a BBC clock online. How good would it be to have an ABC clock like this?

I might have to try sdr# again and see if the noise blanker can help me? It's s9 frypan noise on lower bands. When I get a blackout from storms, the noise magically goes away and the bands are really quiet.

Later that week, Smithy learnt the hard way, you don't mess with 'Mr Newton'
Pete Smith, definitely not speaking.

Wow! What a list. Found Johhny and Dazza in my collection. Now left wondering how many other Australian albums employ the 'Head Tilt' on the cover lol.

Round-Robin nets are not the art of conversation. Nobody talks like that. And the weather. Don't get me started on the weather on a Round-Robin net. I DO NOT care what the temperature is inside your house.

It’s my birthday today.
I’m going to see an advanced screening of TRON: ARSE.
I can say that because I’m the birthday boy.

They need to be brave and make it the Olympic Mascot then 🤪 🤪What a job that would be, walking around in an Ibis costume annoying everyone with your giant beak.

The ibis is a picnic wrecking, burden on humanity.
A dumpster diving, bin-chicken, disrupting the community,
Annoying the general public, at every opportunity.
Disgrace to feathered creatures, bringing shame on the bird family!
