Mr Stu
Ah yes, Walibi Belgium had one of those as well.
Just about to go out,last week the Stranglers,this week WWE Wrestling.Life is so diverse when you have kids.:)
Should be a good event. Im going to whatch TNA wrestling at wembley (arena)in January so looking foward to it.
It was good sat in the 5th row, close enough to see them nearly hitting each other:lol:
lol
gd old WWE
very fit divas though:uhoh:
Ahh I still remember the good ol days with stone cold steve austin, mankind, the rock, the undertaker....
Many an hour spent watching WWF and robot wars. To me it died when it gave up its name to an organisation with a panda for a logo.
Whatch TNA on bravo and ROH on the fight network. Talent wise their matches are 10 times better that the WWE which... lets just say that on sky sports it is rated a PG. However the new game is very good and in my eyes really woth the money.
Heard on fox sports last week that TNA have offered Sarah Palin a $500,000 contract to work there. Sounds like a marrage made in heaven.
gary i too remember the good old old old days of jake the snake and mr perfect and brutus the barber beefcake, the ultimate warrior and earthquake and hulk hogan in his prime. they were the ones i watched
You can still buy DvDs of that era! Look in HMV for Tagged Classics.
Its sad to see that the attitutde era Is 10 years ago. Its also sad to see how many wrestlers from the golden age (I like to call it) have passed away. See if you recognise any of these:
Mr Perfect Curt Henning
Big boss man
Chris Benoit
Earthquake
Eddy Guererro
Road warrior Hawk
Owen Hart
Mike Awesome (any ECW or WCW fans will remember him)
Bam Bam Bigelow
Ms. Elizabeth
ravishing rick rude
Texas Tornado
andre the giant
Crash Holly
Gorilla Monsoon
Sad:sad:
BTW above is my 100th post so WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I do remember all of them, back from a time when I still lived with my dad. Pfff, long bygone days... And I always had to decide what to watch at Sky Channel... WWF, Australian Football or Sumo. Sadly the rest of my family didnt follow my good tastes and I was allowed only one slot.
Mind you kids, thats from those prehistoric ages when one TV-set in the house was considered a luxury.
But at least the prehistoric ages when one TV-set in the house was considered a luxury. had good WWE wrestling on it.

(Message edited by john on November 18, 2008)
none as the letter K does not appear in the word Australia..:mrgreen:
Good website I found today:
http://atom.smasher.org/http://atom.smasher.org/
Been giving some serious thought to moving to Australia once Ive graduated and got a decent financial cushion here - the people seem so much more cheerful and relaxed, it seems like a really nice country and besides, someone needs to show those guys how to build robots! :proud:
(just kidding guys :) I would love to take on your robots one day)
Not sure how many times the UK would fit into Australia but its bound to be a helluva lot - its massive!
From what ive heard it is quite hard to get in to live in Australia, the son of a guy i used to work with moved out there and only got in cos he knew Ian Thorpe and got a good reference from him.
But they are in need of engineers, but I think work experience might be needed firsth.
An ex-collegue of mine is studying at evenings besides his job to get a university degree so he is more qualified and has more chance to go to Australia. The requirements to emigrate there are pretty tough.
some of my family emegrated there you have to pay to get in if you dont earn anoth points by what job you have
whats the answer Pete?
dont know ........ thats why im asking you lot :sad::sad::sad::P:P:):):) come on wheres the knowledge ???????????
Australia- 2988902sq miles
UK- 94,526 sq miles
= 31.619 times.
Can you tell I dont wanna do my work!
I was hoping to watch some poker before I turn in for the night, but they are showing roulette on the poker channel. :sad:
What on earth is roulette doing on a poker channel?
gatecrashers
Did you check the roulette channel by chance? :)
How come the happy hour girls always look so miserable?
Would this be counted as a walker or a roller by the FRA rules? :)

Itd be counted as bloody awesome by our rules I should think. :P
Any takers?
