Took the DBR2 out for an early morning spin today leaving Chatswood in the dark arriving at Stanwell Park Tops via Royal National Park just assun rose and shone over the New South Coast roadway see photos attached toshow you, as you were probably still tucked up in a warm bed. Continuing down the coast and a hill climb up Bulli Pass on to Princes Highway down Heathcote Road, passing Lucas Heights the only thing glowing here was the twin exhaust side pipes as I drove past police setting up a speed trap one of the police waved his hand indicating to me I should be driving slower andhome for breakfast and a cup of coffee with the lovely Roselee it was BloodyCold but felt terrific after the refreshing run .

With thanks to Les for this Tit-Bit

While in Tasmania recently I purchased 2 unusual hunting dogs from an inbred Tasmanian man in the back hills area, hard to get there through multiple dirt roads etc, he told me he has not been in contact with any one for some 45 odd years but was willing to part with his 2 inbred hunting dogs. Please find photo.

NowThis is Spin!!  
Judy Wallman, a professional genealogical researcher, discovered that Hillary Clinton's great-great uncle, Remus Rodham, was hanged for horse stealing and train robbery in Montana in 1889.  
The only known photograph of Remus shows him standing on the gallows. 
On the back of the picture is this inscription: 'Remus Rodham; horse thief, sent to Montana Territorial  Prison 1885, escaped 1887, robbed the Montana Flyer six times. Caught by Pinkerton detectives, convicted and hanged in 1889.' 
Judy e-mailed Hillary Clinton for information about her great-great uncle. 
  Hillary's staff sent back the following biographical sketch: 
'Remus Rodham was a famous cowboy in the Montana Territory.  His business empire grew to include acquisition of valuable equestrian assets and intimate dealings with the Montana railroad. Beginning in 1883, he devoted several years of his life to government service, finally taking leave to resume his dealings with the railroad. 
 In 1887, he was a key player in a vital investigation run by the renowned Pinkerton Detective Agency.  
In 1889, Remus passed away during an important civic function held in his honour when the platform upon which he was standing collapsed.'
