I like that. I guess the rest of Australia won't get to use them... |

Plus, there's like only 50 people outside the southern coastline anyway.

Yeah, but the unfriendly joke here is that they have two heads, so it's really about 100 people.
(Sorry Tassie!) |

Too bad they didn't have a decent pic of the model.

Absolutely nothing ever happened beyond the Flinders Ranges; the only sportspeople who ever played for Australia were South Australians; the only industrial activity in the entire continent had Adelaide at its hub; and the paper weighed 2kgs when delivered. (Remove the ads to reduce it to 200gms.) I think "parochial" is the adjective that springs to mind. Cheers, Cliff |

That's ok Pascaly . . . Correct me if I'm wrong, but they are going to be the Hobart class destroyers are they not? By the way, almost half of all Tasmanians do have two heads - one on our necks, the other at the end of our knobs. |

Um, Launceston is not the capital of Tasmania, Hobart is. Although many would argue Campbell Town should be!
