How about a Birthday section? Where we can wish other members a happy birthday or post pics of previous birthday bashes??


Just an Idea...

Alot of socialising goes on in this forum so thought it may be appropriate.

Have a look at "Calendar". Every person with their birthday listed gets a "Happy Birthday" email from Neil. But your idea is a good one except that it may give the oportunity to pay out on us old f**ts. :D
Kind regards

You'll just have to make sure that future birthdays ARE worth a photo...:D

It was just a suggestion. Maybe 'funny photo's' section instead :p

If we combine your idea and Termites idea we could have an 'old farts funny photos' section. ;)


:D :D

I just noticed you are "1 day older" than me. 20 th June, I'm 21 st of June. Plus if you turn your age ( 29 ) around to 92, you're 1 year older than my "stated" age of 91! ;)

Did you survive last night's storm and ale force winds, OK?

only just survived.... It's my first time in this house with a huge storm, being ontop of the ranges doesn't help with wind. Very ferocious, the lilly pilly lost a big branch right near the house. But all is ok. It's getting chopped up and off to the dump today :D

I like the old farts comp.... you will have to be the oldest member :p and only just a gemini :D

Try to keep some for the woodturners around the place. Never know when a favour may come in handy.

Gemi - we used to have one for birthdays, Christmas wishes, etc, etc, but no one ever used it so I took it off a couple of years ago. Just put it on at Christmas time now. We can give it a try again if you like. Whats another forum amongst friends.

Cheers - Neil :)

I had no damage here in Perth. You are lucky to live on the ranges ( which ones?). I like being either close to the sea or way in the mountains.

Well 91 is an age that slipped in due to a typo in my year of birth. I wonder if there are anyone in their real 90's that frequent this BB. Interesting thought.

Have a good weekend!

<TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=500 border=0><TBODY><TR><TD>Darling Ranges.... Here is a little about the town I live in. Guess you could say, I am way in the mountains :p


This historic mining/timber town is situated 270km south of Perth and is situated between Balingup and Bridgetown on the south west highway in the state's south-west. Greenbushes has a tantalising history and is well worth a visit.
Explore the rich seams of the Greenbushes story beginning with the discovery of a pound of tin in a creek in 1888 through to the development of a mining industry that supplies 35 percent of the world's demand for the strategic mineral tantalum.
This small town has contributed for over a century to the wealth of the Bridgetown-Greenbushes shire through its mining, timber and agricultural industries.
Named for the unusual "green bushes" surrounding a well frequented by thirsty travellers journeying from Bunbury to parts south in the late 1880's, Greenbushes is situated on the oldest gazetted minerals field in WA and at 324 metres above sea level occupies the highest point of the Darling scarp.
Next time you make a call on your mobile phone, take that picture on your digital camera or start up your laptop computer chances are you'll be using Australian tantalum – mined at Greenbushes WA. For inside many electronic devices there is a tantalum capacitor and the raw material for these capacitors ( tantalite concentrate) is mined at
Greenbushes - the location of the world's largest defined resource of tantalum.

Well, I'll probably be down your way in November, that is if I get to go to the blues festival in Bridgetown. The last time we camped at the show grounds and had a whale of a time. The festival was but a small part of the fun we had.....the partying and fun amongst the festival goers was just incredible.

Have agood week!

Greenbushes: Between the two coldest places in WA Bbbrrrrrrrrr:D

Tantalum: Little bits used inside laptops. Tonnes used in welding electrodes. Used as a stabilising agent for the prevention of carbide precipitation in welding of Stainless Steels.;) And I never knew it came from Greenbushes, ya learn something every day.:)

Now you may understand the reasoning for cork flooring and trying to insulate the bathroom walls. going to the bathroom is like having an outside toilet. Very cold, :(
