    Some Emu's in the wild, we were driving near Broken Hill and they chased the car.

    Anyone ever heard of the book and movie, "Picnic at Hanging Rock"?
    It's an Australian mystery and it was said to be a true story. No one really know if it is real or not, but it is a good read.
    Dave and I visited the setting a couple of years ago and there was a definate eerrie feel about the place.
    What was really funny was that when we got to the top, we couldn't find the way back down. So there was Dave and I, clambering down over rocks and sliding down chasms. After about an hour of this, and trying not to get too panicky, we looked over and found that we were about 10 metres from the paved pathway complete with handrail.
    We quickly scrambled back onto the path and laughing hysterically made our way back to safety.

    Nice to see you in the flesh so to speak!
    He was probably bored spitless. He's not really into the footy. My Father is fanatical, so at my parents house, it's footy or nothing.
