					<description>And even the Kelly brothers only got away with because they wore cast iron crash helmets griffon, plainly they were wimps compared to the gallant Declan. Siun Declan is otherwise engaged at the moment but when global warning gets so bad that the great lakes are infested with alligators I'll ask Mrs. Declan to let him go over there and assist them on their journey to handbaghood. ^-^ </description>

					<description>Declan - sounds like we need you in Florida to deal with the aligators - all the news channels find the 'gator news so important they can't get around to all that other stuff like ... you know .. war? So if you could hop over and take out the 'gators, maybe we'd learn what's going on?</description>

					<description>All right, already! I'll buy it! 
I'll only get three weeks with it from the library because there's bound to be somebody lined up behind me. Sounds like it will be a damned good reference book. I might have to eat a lot of potato soup for a while, though.

I thought that plug 'ole stuff was bullshit. I never bothered to check when I ventured over the equator. And I don't feel inclined (pun!) to repeat the experience any time soon the way things are. Living at the back end of nowhere is just fine by me even if the blood rushes to my head some time.

This upside down stuff accounts for the number of dropbears we have. Vicious bastards. They seem to go for tourists mostly. Bit of a mystery.

I'm so impressed you trapped one and killing and skinning one is virtually unheard of. Well, not since Ned and Dan Kelly  caught one - and there was two of them. Well done!
Cheers.</description>

					<description>That's not creativity that's the effect of a lifetime of the water going down the plughole the &lt;em&gt;wrong way&lt;/em&gt; and walking around upside down ;-) Even 'though you know about it from school it still absolutely blows your mind the first time you see it. I don't know how many baths I ran on my first (and only) trip to Australia just for the sheer childish pleasure of watching the water swirling the wrong way round. It made the whole trip worth while, well that and the drop bear I trapped, the pelt looks great in front of the fireplace ;-)

Seriously 'though griffon it's huge and you will find yourself going through it and then stopping and thinking and then going back three chapters and re-reading &lt;em&gt;that&lt;/em&gt; chapter all over again and saying aaaaaah! as a whole heap of pennies drop. I've a lot of time for Fisk he knows his stuff - boy does he know his stuff - he writes really well and basically just sticks up for decency. You won't regret a penny of the price. 


PS: I don't get any commission for this.  </description>

					<description>Griffon of the creative english - I suspect the wait is long because the book takes time and thought. I normally zip through most everything - coupla books a week - but I've been reading Fisk for quite a while now - I find I read a bit and then really need to think because I start to understand new connections, new angles on history that I though I was moderately conversant with. He is so personal and at the same times the exemplary journalist -  and the scope is so broad but it all clicks into place as he leads you to the present. brilliant stuff ... </description>

					<description>Now, there's a bit of well English! I seems I couldn't decide whether to say &quot;I knew you were busy&quot; or &quot;I know you are busy&quot;. So I went for &quot;I knew you are busy&quot;!</description>

					<description>Yeah, I knew you are busy (goodonya!), Siun, that's why I put this site up for you as it's a good precis, as far as I can see, of the whole thing. So tuck it away for whenever.
I'm still waiting for my copy of Fisk's book from the library. Seems there's quite a waiting list. I might have to (ugh) buy it!</description>
