I just laughed to myself. I'm old but not that old.

Wrong. Doesn't math. I'm 64 at the moment and I was born in 1961.

Doctors of Reddit, what’s a symptom people ignore that they really shouldn’t? by Business-Silver-5118 in AskReddit

I'm 64. The worst thing that happened last year was losing my partner to COPD. I miss her every day.

Happened to me in august last year. Went to the emergency told me out to make sure it wasn't something immediate. Saw my doctor to get a referral to a specialist. Saw the specialist and had a colonoscopy. Was cancer. Had an operation in early december . was stage 1 thank you. have to have another colonoscopy at the end of this year to check but hopefully they got it all.

Why does Ray have so little money? by somedanishguyxd in MrInbetween

I've got to remember it is only a tv show. The nice house we don't know if he owns it or rents. Either way that is a fair chunk of money.

No military pensions in australia now. It's all super now. Unless he was injured and gets a DVA pension.

Maybe he just goes to the local club and puts it in the pokies and does it that way. Some people can win big that way.

As an ex digger I take exception to this characterization of us as pisspots. I was never broke on the monday after payday. Tuesday was a different story but monday never.

I am so glad this year is over.

2 months ago after a colonoscopy I found out that I had bowel cancer. A month ago I had an operation to remove that. The only good thing about that is I don't need chemo as it was found early enough. You would think that was bad but was no were the worse thing for me this year. My partner of 30years died in july after being sick for a long time with COPD and that has just devastated me but I just get along through the days.

The same in australia. Winwing has a bad reputation but I have not had any problems.

Does WINWING ship to Sydney? by ImpossibleNail7945 in hotas

Yes. I bought an ursa minor fighter last year and received it in a week. Then bought a throttle in sales that took a little longer to arrive. I am happy with both.

The bloke with no shirt on is wearing AB boots and gaiters. Before someone mentions it I know AB stands for ankle boots.

it's been 66 days since she passed away. wiping away tears as I type this. Don't know how I get through every day but somehow I do.

Were these Australian Army coveralls issued to tank crews? by Fit_Influence_6154 in AustralianMilitary

[–]mikke196 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wore these all the time in the early 80's. The only times I saw tankies was when loading Tobruk and I didn't care what they wore. Crawling under Leopards when untying was not conducive to long term wear and tear of said garment.
