Alex 35150 Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 Whilst I’ve got a bit of time for the sweaty socks voting to remain in the UK then electing a load of SNP MPs to Westminster was possibly the most Scottish thing ever Unlike the leave voters in the EU referendum they correctly realised they’d have no one to blame their problems in any more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sammynb 3368 Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 (edited) Just so we are all aware and there is no doubt. Cheltenham is also in NSW, Victorians like to copy us. Wallsend, Jesmond, Hexham and Gateshead are in Newcastle, we also let some sheep shaggers settle nearby so there is a Cardiff and Swansea close by.

There’s a sunderland in Queensland, near Taroom, but it’s so small and insignificant it isn’t named on Google maps/earth. https://mapcarta.com/29977988/Map Fuck yeah! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunter valley is full of Northumbrian place names, presumably due to miners from the NE settling in the area to exploit the coal reserves? There’s a Kelso in Washington State, US, just at the foot of Mt St Helens which blew its top in the winter of 80/81 which coincided with my first year at secondary school. Kelso High School Roxburghshire was somehow in regular contact with Kelso High School Washington and we received lots of photos showing the devastation across the area. We did a geography project on it, about how the eruption affected the weather across the entire planet, including causing one of the coldest winters on record in the uk 🤓 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1980_eruption_of_Mount_St._Helens Edited October 25, 2023 by PaddockLad 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeys Fist 42560 Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 The sequence of it just before it blows is mind-boggling. Biggest recorded landslide in history I think. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex 35150 Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 I was staying at a place in Mission Beach in Queensland (depressingly almost exactly 20 years ago). Me and my lass got talking to a couple of school teachers and they would not fucking have it that the saying ‘coals to Newcastle’ originally referred to Newcastle upon Tyne rather than the one in NSW 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuck that shit! Apart from the crocs there’s the box jellyfish. Iirc it was a couple of weeks before ‘stinger season’ but I would not be taking the chance of there not being a few early interlopers. Needless to say she wasn’t Australian. She survived We got as far as Cape Tribulation and saw a saltwater crocodile from the safety of a boat. I saw a wild cassowary at Mission Beach. It looked like a dinosaur 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
