Thank you Gary and Ron for replying to me, I got onto the u tube bit (1st time ever!) and,wow!!, what a wonderful world, now, can any of the apparent (old) rev heads tell me if I can get a copy of any sort of the 54' movie staring Kirk Douglas and Bella Darvi, called---"The Racers"---also, Steve McQueen in, 'Mille Miglia', I last saw The Racers about 40 years ago, or so it would seem, and MM maybe 15 to 20 years ago.
I have lots of stories to tell from around 53' at Mt Druitt onwards, went to the 56' Olympic AGP with the ARDC in a bus at 16 years old, 1/4 mile timing at Bathurst in 56' Ern Seeliger in the Tornade missed me by 6" at 160mph, did the timing from up on the bank amongst the trees after that. Knew all the drivers both local and internationals, in Moss's pit crew at 'The Farm' in 62', organised a beaut party for Jimmy Clark at Fairfield RSL in maybe 63' after his win at 'The farm' Yep, lots of stories and all true.
As for astronomy, well, apart from a crook back, I am waiting on a mate to help me sort my new Celestron Nexstar 6", if I dont get it sorted soon, its divorce courts my wife reckons.
