“What do we call it?”
“Uhhh Queensland, in honour of Her Majesty, Victor–”
“No we can’t name it that, the other colony is called that.”
“Well it’s a cliff. How about Queenscliff, in honour of Her Majesty, Victoria…”

“this place looks like south wales… we shall call it ‘new south wales’!”
it also makes me wonder if QLD should be renamed to Kingsland (KLD).
Victoria should be renamed to Charles.
Will probably be a waste of time. Dude looks like he’ll kick the bucket in five years, we’ll barely have time to change the signs on the buildings before the next king comes along.
Or so I really, really hope.
If we become a republic, we should all get a rebrand
EDIT: we should englishify some aboriginal words and that’s the state name.
NSW should be renamed to Colomatta after the blue mountains as an example
I’m very open to Australia being a republic since the UK doesn’t really have any affect on national politics and the King is just a ceremonial piece that does nothing.
Na just Tigga, in your neck of the woods I meant.
i am imagining a cartoon snake and tiger now.
Just rename it to Kingswood country. That’s more Australian and you hippies can dump the king then and runamuck.
I laugh when people living in Australia shit can the bad parts about it. HA at least you have freedom of speech to do so. Try that shit in China and Russia and see where that gets you.
Australia won’t become a republic anytime soon. Do you know of any of the goons in parliament that would be fit to be a President of Australia and have executive powers to override any prime minister and be vocal about it unlike our current gov gen who just reports to the king and approves big purchase orders and decicions. I thought not. It’s too much bookwork. Canada hasn’t bothered either.
The Monarchy leave us to our own devices anyway so whats the point besides blowing billions of dollars restructuring the constitution. And what the fuck are you going to put in that constitution dare I ask. It’s too big of an undertaking for the current day people to agree on. It aint the 1700’s where you drew up 5 things and that’s your constitution. People are so divided today that they will never be able to agree on a lot of things. Look at this Voice thing, first they want it, now they don’t. That is how it will be.
Don’t take above personal exakel. It is merely my outlook for all people.
agree to disagree. ez.
Crying right now!
Waited so long to get one…… then boom…… bans were announced only a few weeks after
In hindsight, I should have just removed the gearbox and inner barrel/t-piece and kept it as a Legal display replica…. but too late now
Makin me wanna gut one to send you homie
Yeah that would be awesome…… but they are a bit too good to just gut one for no reason, unless you are @Bigmuthadrums who has a kink for Lampshades
I literally have one, unopened BNIB…
I bought it at one of the runout sales, after it had been around for awhile…
I have never opened it, i knew it needed upgrades ($$) out of the box, but the main reason, was how bloody big the thing is…
It’d take up a lot of room, for storage / display…easier to keep it in a box, for
“one of these days”…
Here we go…
If you ever move over to QLD, and its still all packed up…its yours…!!
Pressure to move…slightly increasing…!!
Thanks for the bribe mate, duly noted and will add to my For/Against list of reasons to move to QLD!
i am jelly of my northern neighbours. that much is clear.
Forgot to mention….
As much 1942, as you can handle…on the ole arcade machine…
It’s not no reason, the biggest issue would be logistics and cost tbh.
It’s a present for the homies, I could even keep the parts in a draw if the laws change so you can put her back together again.
It cuts thinking about how much you lost practically overnight due to malicious and inept laws, and I remember how excited you were about this beast, and how much it woulda hurt to have to scrap it right after getting one.
So I’d love to give you a fraction of that collection back, you could even put it on a table with the red blanket under it ^^
