MObius is staying at the Palazzo Horse
Yes, another first for the OT, Mobius arrived this evening at the Palazzo Horse - or Fortress Horse or Festung Horse or Horse's house, take your pick with a charming young woman in tow. After getting the children off to bed, we had a very nice Indian meal and a few quiet glasses of wine.
On the way back from picking up the food I showed Mobius the big mob of kangaroos that live on the hill above our house.
More of his plans as I learn of them.

Are not you concerned that having 2 anti USA leftists in the same building will present an irresistable target for the CIA?

I can see it!
Kangaroos are those four-wheeled things with spare tyres, aren't they? See, I'm sharp!

Actually I think it's from the lack of ozone down here and having to suffer Horse's corny jokes... 
Yes, I can confirm the Palazzo is indeed great and that Horse and family have been charming hosts.
Well, I must be off now - tight schedule and all that (the GF is standing over my should tapping at her watch!  )
We have an appointment with a giant 3-storey Merino (that's a Sheep to you uncultured lot!) - apparently you can walk up inside it through it's backside... 
Don't worry MikeH - I'll post some pics for you when I get back to Sydney...
See Ya!

After some of the abuse I have to put up with from this forum, dealing with you, your wife and four young children was a walk in the park!
Here's AH at that Boddie's sign - did you know there is also a Dookie St and a Nimrod St in Canberra, is there something you want to share with us Stu?

Run lads - it's that Bloody AH come to hassle us again!
Here I was trying to do my David Attenborough filming and Horse frightened the Kangas away...
Merry Xmas everyone - I'm off down the beach now that we're staying at Bondi for a couple of weeks looking after a friend's place. It's a hard life!

That's a nifty little camera - those roos must have been 150 - 200 metres away.
The following week I missed 2 and hit one just near where you saw the roos at night.

It's actually his 4WD with roo bars - he spends each dusk patrolling the streets trying to run them over!

Where I come from, we shoot 'roos on sight.
Actually, we don’t have many Kangaroos here, probably to wet for them... .
On the other hand, we do have a bit of a scrub turkey problem, little buggers everywhere, come out at night and steal our children  .

I thought your problem on the East Coast was those deadly Drop Bears - you never know what's hit you till it's too late!

Those Drop Bears are pretty useful if you know a bit about them...
