Thought for Today

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!!!

To me, “Drink responsibly” means “Don’t spill any!”

If train station platforms are so cold, why don't the Antarctic penguin migrate there?

Now there's an idea, solve global warming. Build more train platforms.

And more red rattlers, on a frosty morning, more air passed through those than went around them ......

So, build train track, station platforms and a loop of red rattlers travelling through Antartica ...... maybe few of the old freight trains with the big sliding side door for the polar bears ....... You might be onto something there Jon .....

I don't want to be pedantic Terry, but last time I looked, polar bears are in the Artic and penguins are in the Antarctic. :D
But you never know, things may have changed with global warming. :roll:

Ahhhh..... well, that answers the security problems for the penguins then :lol: Two railway systems ...... not sure how you build a railway without land under it, but I'm sure Jon will have an answer for that problem .......

But before you can build the bridge you have to first got to Bunings and buy some timber.
