By the way Ricky Hatton fought last night

I know this is the OZ forum, but come on not a single thread about Hatton v Mayweather - Really am surprised nobody seems to be interested, especially since so many ex Brits are now living down under ( or is that us, depends how you look at it) - You do still recognize the Queen dont you and enjoy Knighthoods etc - Hey come on we drink your Fosters, watch your Neighbours, put up with Danni Minogue on our TVs and all that, so why no interest in our Ricky? - OK tell me to piss off and get back to writing on the British forum with so many Ricky threads you can hardly move without bumping into one - Just clicking around and bored to f*ck, being Sunday, middle of winter, pissing down with rain while you lucky bastards are enjoying barbies and going to the beach - By the way do you have any good boxers over there? - We had one over here about a month ago, champion of NSW I think - Dont take any notice of that shit, I know you have some tough lads out there or down there whatever really - Do you send each other Christmas cards with snow scenes? - We havent had a white Christmas in years - By the way snow is crystalized ice - I thought I would point that out since none of you have had a snowflake fall on your head or woke up to find your car under a mound of snow - Anyway happy Christmas to you all and gooday

The water swirls around your basins in the wrong direction and your light switches are upside down. Plus........you have Julian Clary and Terry Wogan

So I am told about the water, I think it went the right way in Hitchcocks Psycho, remember the shower scene - What an awful pair to pick, of all the nice people you could have chosen from, you pick a bloody shirt lifter and Wogan!!!! - Mind Wogan is Irish of course, not one of ours really - Many years ago I worked at the BBC and Mr. bloody Wogan had a go at me for borrowing a few records out of his box for a show we did then - OK I was being a bit lazy not going down to the library but he went on and on like a stupid woman when I told him I had borrowed them - Tel as he was known as and I never spoke again - I avoid all his programs like the plague, nasty man - Your Danni Minogue has been on doing the X Factor program, shes on a panel as a judge with young hopeful singers, God she can be harsh - I far prefer Kylie myself, lovely woman - Anyway mate thanks for the reply, not a lot of boxing content, but who cares, nice to chat - Have a nice one Waylon.

Daft isnt it, I agree - Dont be so serious - You wanna try living here in the middle of winter when its cold and wet outside - You have to do something to amuse yourself.

A great great grandfather of mine was a farm labourer from Berkshire. He was transported for stealing a horse.

After 11 years he got a conditional pardon, meaning he had to stay here. He got some land and some sheep in the Nyngan district and finished up one of the wealthiest graziers in the country. If he had stayed in England he would have been a farm labourer until he died.

Getting locked up was the best career move he ever made.

Yeh, a distant relative of mine came over here from poland during world war 1 to escape persecution and worked around the riverina droving sheep for Sir Henry Kidman.
I was told that a year after he came here he bought a tiny share of what was to become BHP for 5pounds.. He sold his share in it around 1950 for todays equivalent of about $9million, needless to say that was the end of his droving career

With Cortez reffing i think he would have a chance, Hatton seemed hopless without his grabbing tactics he is allowed to get away with in England.

Why do you think Australians watch so much sport on TV?

Another great story - We have many Polish people here but I dont think too many could tell you about such a life of success.

The water around the basin thing is a myth. The so-called Coriolis Force relates to the spinning of the earth, storms move in different directions in the Northern and Southern hemispheres, but with something as small as a wash basin gravity has more effect.

A trickster in Kenya named Peter McLeary, who lived right on the Equator, used to con tourists by walking across the Equator with a square dish with a hole in it filled with water with his finger blocking the drainhole . The water would drain clockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and anti-clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere.

It had nothing to do with the "Coriolis Force," it was because he turned to face the tourists opposite ways in each hemisphere! One of the people he took in with his trick was Michael Palin, the actor and adventurer.

Nice trick, but just a trick.

Dr Karl Kruszelnicki explained it in his book "Myth Conceptions." The book blows a lot of commonly held beliefs out of the water.

And after Danny Did Droopy (12 rounds, unamimous), we now have two WBA champs and two IBO champs.

Really surprised this thread is still here - Anyway I would like to take this opportunity of wishing you all, and your families, a great Christmas and best wishes for New Year - I am looking forward to Feb when a really good friend, Karen is comming to see us from OZ - She got married in Melbourne a few months back, bit too far for me to travel these days.
