Andy Gibb died at a very young age.

He only made it a few days past his 30th birthday.

And I hated the disco scene, full of pretentious morons who all thinker they looked like John. But they didn't Once I picked up a chick, that was it for me for the night, no more dance for me.

How do you turn a 10 day camel into a 20 day camel?

You smash the two bricks together with their jewels in the middle.

Like filling your car's petrol tank to the brim....... you know it will go further...

Yeah, you can get across that desert on a camel, but you need to brick 'im ...

Off to the snow tomorrow (I think).. might brick the tank just in case... the old Terr'uh'tree isn't really 4WD, but hell... common sense is six wheel drive with snow chains - if it gets slippery or sloppy - it's time to stop. Road's graveled though - no real problem unless the creeks are flooding,and we've done the Snowies when it's deep... I did the back road from Jindabyne in Winter in an open top Ford Capri and only stopped once when a forestry guy was chain-sawing a fallen tree ... carry food and water... coupla doonas and stuff... cigarette lighter for fire ...

And the lights all went out in The Bee Gees.....

After I got laid for the first time in 7 years of Celibacy (I was only joking to her when I said "you wanna f*?" When she pulled out the Vodka and the Joint - I knew I was indeed 'F*cked'! Tongue

)
- the following day I cruised into town in my dump ute to "Stayin Alive" and swaggered down the main street with the song still stayin alive in my head. Grin

Was given a book by some Geek Chick because I mentioned I liked Game of Thrones ("Here - you'll like this then" Wink

) It was by an Australian Authoress 'Sarah Douglass' who is now dead. Her 'Battle-Axe' novels, as I so far read (Published in 1995+) are almost like Game Of Thrones. In fact, I've now learned that GOT did indeed RIP OFF her Novels! Shocked

I half watched another doco on the bee gees and had forgotten how much talent was in that troop= there was a constant struggle going on - which we never saw because we were watching a band made by the members- the struggle was between Barry and Robyn whom could both sing- strong beautiful voices were owned by both brothers- but the glory was shared were shared by both of them- to the delight of all of us- Robyn mother was effected by her sons Robyns voice -
the youngest son -Andy was only 30 when he died- he was young and beautiful-

The bee gees - there is one left and he will soon be gone and then the whole band and talent will be gone forever-
