I have recently scanned about 3,000 slides and negatives for family and friends including most of my travels. Would love to share a few.! Really miss the old 'Slide Nights'. :angel:

Robster, you never cease to amaze me!

Wonderful photos, thanks so much for sharing.

[Robster]

there was a 3 hour wait to get inside the shuttle and we were on a tight schedule. There was a launch about a week later.!! :dodgy:

That is one place that is my bucket list.

One of my other bucket list items to visit Pearl Harbour and board the "Mighty Mo".   Did that and thoroughly enjoyed it.  



Me in the Admiral's Chair, on the Mighty Mo.

Hey team fantastic pic's :good: and GS my ship the Darwin bought that baby in for the 88 bicentenary and mate is it one mother of a ship and really makes ours look like a joke..the sheer power that it wields is just totally awesome and to think that one of the big guns apparently fire about the weight of a VW beetle and those white domes are phalanx system or common name of seawiz as they sound like a big velcor zipper being undone when firing it's 1000 rounds in about 3.5 seconds with each projectile splitting into 4, yes I was a seawiz loader so probably sterile now. The Darwin had a compliment of about 200 but always have more on board and when you compare that to the 5000 on the mo and then all the arsenal they have like the seawiz where we had one they have 4 and then there's things like charf for taking out incoming missiles and I thought we had a few but when you see something like the mighty mo you they can see and appreciate pure power and it's a shame our fleet is so sad being a brown water navy and not blue. A brown water navy doesn't have an aircraft carrier, they should have replaced the melbourne

Battleships and aircraft carriers are beautiful things. Don't know about replacing the Melbourne though as subs regard juicy soft targets as future artificial reefs.

Cool pics Robster ..... my first Street Rod Nationals was in Mildura in 1983. Only had a crappy old kodak camera at the time, but have lots of pics buried here somewhere though.

I think my first was in Narrandera in '78 followed by Albury in '79.!  Good times.! :yahoo:
Two of my all time favourites.!!




Chopped, Channeled, Lowered, Widened, Would have loved to have seen the finished project.
