That settles it: we won't be emigrating to Oz anytime soon. My wife has always said she could never live there because of all the dangerous varmints. Wait 'til I show her this lot...

Yeah, where is Tarjak? He hasn't been around for a long time, I thought maybe he was in the brig...

I figure he's:
on holiday.:hmmm:
a croc got him:dead::down:
a great white got him:gulp:
or
he escaped the colony and he's in transit.

Maybe he was driving his tar in the outback and got tarjacked by a Koala.

Now using slomo transport...

I've recycled the link from Feuer Frei's "Hopping Mad" here because it reminds me of the Springtime Boxing March Hares we see in this country. Strange that similarity: are roos and hares zoologically connected? They seem very alike...
