    Back to Coronavirus footy.
    DT/ST today:

    "Fittler wants Origin crowds"...is happy for Origin to be played after the Grand Final "which could be played in Nov".

    Would un-vaccinated for Covid-19 fans (vaccine is 12 months away) want to
    attend, actually attend?
    That is the question.

    The very old car had a crank handle( which got much use), bench seat, push button start and a column shift.
    Too many near misses, failed brakes, blown tyre sending me across the road to the right and up a side street.
    Put hot water in the radiator to warm up the engine...seemed like a good idea at the time.
    If only I'd been taught about cars and not Shakespeare.
    I was a tireless advocate for rego checks/
    pink slips.

    It was definitely NBHS.....the gate exit where at age 18, driving out of it I was nearly collected by a truck (my fault)...is still there.
    SBHS would not have a poor excuse for a tree, looking like it was done by a 5 yr old, on its emblem, my guess.

    I left NBHS in 1964 age 18, had to repeat a year because...I was always a 70% student when the subjects were basic...2 +2 = 4.....and 95% subjects were selected for me to study in years 4 and 5...was never going to end well.
    Counting back:
    14 in 1960
    13 in 1959

    There seems to only be one 'Bembrick' latin teacher of the era.....Edgar.
    I remember being taught at NBHS by a Mr Bembrick who wrote the text book...not necessarily in 1963, that was just a date I selected for the 'maths exam' joke.
    Surely I didn't dream it.
    There must be an explanation.
