Yeah possibly. Its in the bin now anyway.

The chimney seems to be leaning away from the house and pulling itself off the wall while pulling the wall away. I'll check it in the next few days and then carefully dismantle it. (Unless its straight and level in which case I'll have to start again with a new plan.)
Here you are mate. While your sat back with a cuppa, take a butchers at my favourite chimney story :)

I was watching that the other day. I'm fascinated that Fred could climb those heights with those gigantic balls weighing him down.

Dolphin s have a reputation for rescuing humans whenever there's someone there to tell the story...

But they're always laughing at us. I reckon they're up to something.

It's called survivorship bias. The people that dolphins rescued lived to tell the tale of the wonderful dolphins, but for the obvious reason, we never hear from the ones murdered by dolphins.

That's right.

Can't trust 'em.
 
Aren’t dolphins rapists too

Don’t know about that, but I do know that they are very promiscuous. The males will kill offspring because the females can’t mate while caring for their babies, so to counteract that the females will mate with as many males as they can so the males think it’s theirs and the males won’t kill their own offspring.

no it wasn't. many were starving to the point of infanticide. a hunter gather lifestyle isn't a higher standard of living compared to agriculture and farming, it's why so few live that way today when their is a much smarter and easier way of life.
It was so shit in England that people were stealing bread and being sent here.

Parts of Australia - like the people in the tweed and Clarence catchments were so well fed they had high levels of body fat when they first met the Europeans. You forget that Australia was more like Europe or North America - a continent with many different nations - than a single country or island like the UK.

The reason we don't live like hunter gatherers today is the way land tenure laws are set up. You literally can't live a hunter gather lifestyle in Australia any more because too much land is held under freehold title. Its the same reason we can't burn the land properly.

Also, I thought that by now it was common knowledge that agriculture and farming techniques did exist in Australia prior to colonisation.

And the main reason this history has been ignored for so long was to justify the terra nullius doctrine.

Well yeah they did but that's gonna be just nother argument about farming and agriculture and aquaculture etc etc
 
It didn't take long for the memes to come.
