  4. AUSSIE LT ‘DIVER’ DERRICK - said ‘Bugger The CO’ And Captured A Japanese Position. by Jim Rowley. Sometimes doing what’s right isn’t in line with orders. The 2/48th Battalion of the Australian 9th Infantry division was Australia's most decorated unit that served in WWII, and Lt. Thomas "Diver" Derrick was one of the battalion's most decorated and beloved soldiers. Derrick's best-known accomplishment came during the Battle of Sattelberg in New Guinea in November 1943. The 2/48th participated in the fight, but after a week of fighting their progress stalled and Derrick's commanding officer ordered a retreat. Derrick was quoted as saying, "Bugger the CO, just give me 20 minutes and we'll have this place." Derrick advanced on multiple Japanese machine gun positions, uphill through the jungle, while under covering fire from his squadmates. And he did it by himself. Altogether, Derrick cleared out 10 enemy positions, helping his unit accomplish their objective and receiving the Victoria Cross for his efforts. Unfortunately, Derrick perished late in the war, suffering grievous injuries at the Battle of Tarakan in May 1945 and succumbing the next day.
  5. LUNCH IN THE BUSH - Warwick -1893 A man and woman stopping for a meal and a billy of tea. The horses have been unhitched from the double buggy. The double buggy was advertised as 'a must for squatters' as it was admirably adapted to travelling over huge logs and rutted ground. Travel in Australia during the late 1800s would have been very difficult.
  6. Thanks CC, I've had this coming up to 20 years and reloaded a gazillion rounds. I wish we down here were as lucky as our U.S pards in regards to Dillon refurbs. Dillon is good to us with parts - great company. I have often thought of getting that camming pin with the little roller, I have got the roller bearing index cam mod.

  9. BOTTOM DEODORANT A blonde woman walks into a chemist and asks the assistant for some bottom deodorant. The assistant, a little bemused, explains to the woman that they don't sell bottom deodorant, and never have. The blonde, unfazed, assures the lady behind the counter that she has been buying the stuff from here on a regular basis, and would like some more. The shop assistant thinks for a minute, knowing full well that they don't stock, or have ever sold, such an item. She smiles at the thick blonde pillock and says, " One moment please, I will get the chemist.” The chemist looks at the blonde and says, "Can I help you miss?” "I would like to buy some bottom deodorant please,” says the blonde. "I'm sorry, says the chemist, we don't have any.” "But I always get it here,” says the blonde. "Do you have the container it comes in?” the chemist asks. "Yes!” said the blonde, "I'll go home and get it.” She returns with the container and hands it to the chemist who looks at it and says to the her, "This is just a normal stick of under arm deodorant." The annoyed blonde snatches the container back and reads out loud from the container, "To apply, push up bottom.”
  10. Pushed an earbud through them soaked in alcohol when I cleaned the feeding tube some months ago, I was surprised how much yellow primer compound was attached to the earbuds.

  13. Did that a few months ago (first time in the nearly 20 years I've owned it) with Isopropyl alcohol and cotton balls and it very effectively cleaned off all the inside ring marks.
