We need a wall!
Using these two sources of revenue I expect we should be able to fund our Wall in well less than a billion years and we will reap the benefits until the Sun destroys the earth shortly thereafter. Join our Protest I want … nay, expect… all NSW Rogainers to protest at the invasion of their precious and […]

Never Too Young for Lawyer Vine

Congratulations and thanks to course setters Nicole and […]
My wrap of the “Woronora Pipe Dream” event.
I greatly enjoyed last night’s rogaine and thanks to everyone involved in making it happen. I have done over 90 NSW rogaines and this one certainly rates in my top 5. A number of factors contributed to this enjoyment: The course was really good, there were a lot of bush controls. It certainly was a […]
