@ Guy Smiley, nothing wrong with foraging for a few mushies. My old man had a book on how to identify edible fungi, and if he wasn't quite sure he would try them on the cat first. If it was still alive in the morning, we had them for breaky.

Nice waves around this side of the bay yesterday and today, classic weather, mild, sunny, oceanic pulses , Gannets, Cormorants, Oystercatchers, Singing Honeyeaters and a Rufous Bristle- bird in the car park and a Southern Right Whale out the back doing backflips. Life is so good. AW

Hello soggy

The first article articulated the Problems a High Gas price causes to Australians very well .

It put all the blame on the " Gas Cartels " .

What bullshit , so the Cartel is so fn strong it can't get approval for any of its So Called Members to even build a project in Australia .

They can't get banks 2 lend them money , even if they could .

What a weak as piss Cartel .

There's Woodside, Origin and Santos as the main Australian players .

They are the Easy Targets , not a scary Cartel !

Many didn't want Gladstone built and now they want to take the gas that China and Japan have LT contracts 4 .

Those Contracts allowed overseas banks to fund its development .

Let's get our Export Tax's right and build some NEW gas projects and keep 100% , NOT 40% , of the gas at home !

Australia is NOT Peru FFS !
