CBR is the ruination of a good sheep farm. I spent 11 miserable years there and the best thing (from a FF perspective) about it was the requirement to fly to either SYD or MEL to go overseas.

As for eightblack's TRs well they are truly priceless and if you're easily offended then don't even start reading them.

I like the varied references to children:

Eightblack: "our eldest child"
Wife of Eightblack: "your son"

Eightblacks Back

Eightblacks Back and I don't have to hang out at Daveco looking for someone who desperately needs a drink!

Thanks for sharing the adventure.

Great to see another Eightblack TR though since he moved to the United States he seems to get distracted often in writing his reports. Looking forward to the next installment when he finds the time.
