    I like the old farts comp.... you will have to be the oldest member and only just a gemini
    I had no damage here in Perth. You are lucky to live on the ranges ( which ones?). I like being either close to the sea or way in the mountains.

    Well 91 is an age that slipped in due to a typo in my year of birth. I wonder if there are anyone in their real 90's that frequent this BB. Interesting thought.

    Have a good weekend!

    Talking A little History

    <TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=500 border=0><TBODY><TR><TD>Darling Ranges.... Here is a little about the town I live in. Guess you could say, I am way in the mountains


    This historic mining/timber town is situated 270km south of Perth and is situated between Balingup and Bridgetown on the south west highway in the state's south-west. Greenbushes has a tantalising history and is well worth a visit.
    Explore the rich seams of the Greenbushes story beginning with the discovery of a pound of tin in a creek in 1888 through to the development of a mining industry that supplies 35 percent of the world's demand for the strategic mineral tantalum.
    This small town has contributed for over a century to the wealth of the Bridgetown-Greenbushes shire through its mining, timber and agricultural industries.
    Named for the unusual "green bushes" surrounding a well frequented by thirsty travellers journeying from Bunbury to parts south in the late 1880's, Greenbushes is situated on the oldest gazetted minerals field in WA and at 324 metres above sea level occupies the highest point of the Darling scarp.

    Next time you make a call on your mobile phone, take that picture on your digital camera or start up your laptop computer chances are you'll be using Australian tantalum – mined at Greenbushes WA. For inside many electronic devices there is a tantalum capacitor and the raw material for these capacitors ( tantalite concentrate) is mined at
    Greenbushes - the location of the world's largest defined resource of tantalum.

    Thumbs up

    Well, I'll probably be down your way in November, that is if I get to go to the blues festival in Bridgetown. The last time we camped at the show grounds and had a whale of a time. The festival was but a small part of the fun we had.....the partying and fun amongst the festival goers was just incredible.

    Have agood week!

    Greenbushes: Between the two coldest places in WA Bbbrrrrrrrrr

    For inside many electronic devices there is a tantalum capacitor and the raw material for these capacitors ( tantalite concentrate) is mined at Greenbushes - the location of the world's largest defined resource of tantalum.
    Tantalum: Little bits used inside laptops. Tonnes used in welding electrodes. Used as a stabilising agent for the prevention of carbide precipitation in welding of Stainless Steels. And I never knew it came from Greenbushes, ya learn something every day.

    Cheers

    Now you may understand the reasoning for cork flooring and trying to insulate the bathroom walls. going to the bathroom is like having an outside toilet. Very cold,
