That was the pub on the corner and opposite it was a school, my young Sister went to it and my Mother was a dinner lady there for a couple of years. Now my question was, the pub just a bit further down Kirke-White Street, was it called "The Rifleman"??

Must have been about the time I posted this thread Mick.

I'll bring this back as we were so rudely interupted

We are back up and running, about time to Mick

Dunno Mick, but lets be right, just because you can ride a bike on the track, doesn't mean your an ace on the roads....How many street riders would be able to race against pros on the track?? Wasn't Stirling Moss a late starter in getting a driving license too???

Truth is stranger than fiction...A few years back I was listening to a racing car driver, name eludes me now. He had gone out to dinner in his expensive sports car, parked it in the parking lot of the place he was to have dinner at, got to the door and realised he'd forgotten something. He walked back to the parking lot and spotted several youths around his car starting to strip it, so impressed with their speed he stopped and watched them with his wrist watch in stop watch mode. He clocked them whipping his wheels off and was so impressed he walked up to them and told them they had broken a p

There was a pub at the corner of Kirke-White Street East and London Road years back, anyone recall it's name. Then just down Kirke-White Street from that pub was another one, was it "The Rifleman"??? Funny thing, I used to drink in that pub after my first marriage.. I think it was a Home Ales pub too.. John

Me finks it may be "Put your Hand In The Hand" Done by Ocean written by Canadian Gene Maclellan. 1971

I've heard of Pete Seeger Mick, but not yours, but then again, who over the age of 50 hasn't heard of Pete Seeger

Countries loke Jazz, so many different styles Caz, I like the Johnnie Cash, Willie Nelson style, all this Rockabilly stuff, gives me a headache

Hey Den, it's nice to rub it in mate

You don't mean Keith Urban, do you Cali?

Been past where Caz lives many times going from NSW into Victoria, can look a bit brown during drought years though, but most of the time nice area. Droughts where I live are scarce, green all the time. Summers can be a bit harsh with the high humidity and high temps, but spring and autumn are fantastic! Three drawbacks to where I live, poor shopping, high summer humidity and the thunderstorms can get real severe and can spawn a tornado. I can live with those, I did live several years in California and did experience a few earthquakes, plus tornados are found everywhere on this continent.

No it's a cousin Caz, I think I gave you their website just in case I didn't here it is <http://www.omeoregion.com.au/winery/> I live in the mountains surrounded by Black Walnut trees, Hickory trees, flowering dogwoods, which are native to this area, loads of blackberries! AND the rivers are full of trout and catfish Nearest large twon is Thayer with about 2200 population, and nearest town to me at ten miles away is Alton about 700 population. I am close to the Mark Twain National Park, one mile away! Loads of spring fed rivers, all springs in the Ozarks and pretty close to the Mis

Why's that Caz?? Thats when so many Oz C&W stars came into being, and down here where I live now it's all C&W! We are not that far from Nashiville in Tennessee and just an hour or so away from Branson Missouri's C&W capital. John

I'd say the mid to late 80's is when I went almost totally country and western

That there Mick's a reet spoil sport Dennis

Purruz aht of ahr misery Mick

Yer linked Mick

No probs Mick

Not really sure Mick, but watched a show last night on TV, Chuck Berry, on of Rocks greatest with Keith Richards at a concert they did in St Louis, Julian Lennon was a guest, though not a patch on his late Dad! But to see the rehersals then the show, what great performers!

Those of us who were born in the late 40's and early 50's, we enjoyed some of the best music around, from late 50's to 60's groups, a total revolution in pop music, right up to disco! :o

Just checked Cali, made a mistake, he used to live in Roseville, now he lives in Citrus Heights, not far away though....Tiara Way. He's divorced too, though he should be a Dad by now, got to call him and find out if his ex girlfriend gave birth yet. No other kids, so he doesn't have any at school.

58 this year Caz, old injuries are coming back and haunting me these days, knees are a bit wobbly due to a mining accident I had in my teens plus all the crawling up low faces, so not as fast as I used to be
