I was watching the BBC news today and they were bragging during the sports segment that the Brits whopped your Aussie asses in cricket. They said they took the ashes from you aussies thus proving that the Brits are the supperior players. I watched them ride around in a bus around london celebrating.
do you guys miss your ashes? :-p

They come with spare lenses for standard retail price but the lense combination is different from rudy standard.
Also, they are logo'd on the frame above the lense both sides. A bit heavily branded but look good nonetheless. Done a few googles but cant find anything.
Anyone seen anything similar?

What I wanna know is where are all the newbs who pop in, say hello, and then never get seen again?
If I were a scientist studying the Aussie Thread as a lifeform I would very quickly come to the conclusion that it was a serious candidate for extinction on the basis that it attracts fewer new stayers than the number of souls leaving.
And if I were a mod on BF I would be hoping that the scientist was right!!
