Bob Hawk

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

Pity he went before the election results but maybe he knew who would win ? I liked Bob because he was a real dag. R.I.P. Bob

He was a brilliant, well educated man of the people. He was the PM during some of the greatest improvements to our way of life at a political level, a larrikin that will be very hard match in the future of our the political arena.
Rest in Peace Bob

Unfortunately things will never be anywhere near as 'good' now we have all this modern electronic 'media'.
Facebook, twitter & all the other instantaneous messaging with none or very little responsibility ...............
The media people have much to answer for.
Make me nearly spew seeing some media & some political figures trying to use Bob's passing as a tool to generate even more votes.
RIP Bob!

A cynic would suggest a rumour that he died a month ago and was put on ice to be rolled out a couple of days before the election. :lol: :lol: :lol:
