    So a tune for them both.
    The good thing to come from it is that it I rang a few more old mates scattered round the country, we're probably gonna stay in touch a bit more.
    Funny thing, the mates I still have from 40, 50 years ago are the others who got into bikes.

    Question mark about the circumstances of his death with his Mrs and dog found deceased with him.....

    I'm calling it and predicting the police report will say, all 3 died from Carbon Monoxide poisoning.

    Strong chance as contractors were there looking at something gas related prior to this.

    Top Secret, was an early movie for him, a very corny/double meaning comedy, you can watch it and see new thing each time

    How's  things Soapy ?  What's the latest at the Whyalla steelworks?
    Since I retired from the Port Kembla steelworks I haven't been keeping up with the gossip.
    The last I heard was the government chucked in some money. Has anybody been laid off yet?

    How's  things Soapy ?  What's the latest at the Whyalla steelworks?

    In administration, they are still running, had a couple maintenance issues at the Blast furnace but they start up better now.
    the government have put up about 3 billion, this is to run, not to bail out GFG (Gupta), they still owe the bills that were amassed.
    only jobs gone were the main managers (about time) they have had their jobs since before the last administration.
    as for the workers, they are short, a heap of people left or retired.
    I work for Golding out at the mines, with the current mine plan, put out by GFG in January, Iron Knob has closed, almost out of Hematite, I moved over to Iron Baron, may close in the next couple months, there is over 3 billion tonnes of Magnetite in the range

    back on thread, who has died, GFG Australia
