Great. My new suburb gets bombed 4 Feb 2009 I move into a new place and less than three days later, it gets bombed. Well, strictly a place around the corner got bombed. I slept right through it. Seems someone doesn’t like the Hell’s Angels. I had no idea their clubhouse was nearby (not that it bothers me. I’ll leave them alone if they leave me alone). Administrative
Administrative Where’s Wilkins? 20 Sep 201122 Jun 2018 I’ve been hard to spot lately. There are Developments that have kept me from your view. Last week I was working in a warehouse packing CDs into delivery boxes, and bitching about my back, feet and general well being. This week I am preparing to move to Melbourne (approx. 900km… Read More
Administrative Too big for my boots 13 Feb 2011 I can no longer use the online WordPress export function to back my blog up – I have to ask WordPress to do it. This is because the size of the blog and comments and graphics, etc. has exceeded their latency time and so it times out. Oh dear… it… Read More

Nearly every biker I have ever known was courteous and intelligent, until you got three or more in one place, especially if there was alcohol. I shared a house with one biker once, and as soon as the third club member came around I excused myself for eight hours, and made sure to step over the bodies when I got back, and avoid the broken glass. But I do not look like a biker. I don’t ride a Harley or a rebuilt British bike, I ride what is technically known in the trade as “Jap Crap”.
Odds are, they will. Biker feuds are usually kept “in-house” as it were. You’re not part of the culture, you won’t get caught up in it. Even if you do ride a bike. However, you do run into people who’ll assume you’re a part of it because you look like you should be a part of it. Don’t waste your time with that sort; but be sure to be erudite and courteous, just to screw with their heads.

They leave you alone? You wish, John. They sell guns and drugs. How long until they get in a gun fight either at their clubhouse or during the escape from the clubhouse and the stray bullets come after you?

Well, Sydney was always far more “interesting” than Brisbane or Melbourne. At least now you don’t have to worry about being swept away in a cyclone!

Polonius, why the link? Aerik: Hells Angels, if they break the law, should be brought to account. But I am not the guy to do it, OK? Apart from anything else, I have a son living with me… Greg, was what a hybrid? The bomb?
Sorry if the broken link made the reference more cryptic than I intended. I was referring to an amusing story that Wikipedia describes as “apocryphal”. It is alleged that the small town of Berwick-upon-Tweed, on the border between Scotland and England, was at war with Russia from 1853 until 1966. Your “I’ll leave them alone if they leave me alone” reminded me of the mayor of Berwick’s “Please tell the Russian people that they can sleep peacefully in their beds.”

In the article the claim is made that the Vatican has backed a declaration that proclaims that “It is not permitted to spread falsehood or disseminate that which involves encouraging abomination or *forsaking the Islamic community.*” Since the current Pope publicly baptized a former Muslim last Easter, I somehow doubt the claim of Vatican support for such a declaration.
