Nixon's farewell speech to his staff, tears and all. "Others may hate you. Those who hate you only win when you hate them. And then, you destroy yourself." -

You may hate what the man did, but if you can put it all to one side he did have the greatest laugh in television. -

Moore Park before the SFS. Bottom to top: Sydney Showground, venue of the first RL game in Australia and the early home of Souths. Sydney Cricket Ground, home to Grand Finals (1908-1987, 2020, 2021), venue of more top flight games of RL than any other ground in Australia. SCG No 2, backdrop to many a vintage RL training session photo, not sure what RL was played there but some must have been. Sydney Sports Ground, home to Easts (1911-1986).

This one got me for some reason - probably like the Wonder Years because I was born after the moon landings so by default they are ancient history. -

This sounds like you were on board the Norrona which was on charter to B&I Line in 1990 - http://www.doverferryphotosforums.co.uk/new-mv-norrona-past-and-present/ I'm not afraid to out myself on this thread; I sail on, write about and collect anything and everything to do with passenger shipping (car ferries and passenger steamers (not really cruise ships)). The Norrona is now a missionary ship, the Logos Hope. I had the doubtful pleasure of visiting her in Kiel towards the end of the conversion from car ferry in February 2008; the Christian charity operating the ship had stripped out a rather funky 1970s interior with cosy bars, restaurants and saloons and replaced it with all over wipe-down white formica bulkheads, tables and chairs. I've never seen one of my best friends, who wrote a big coffee table book about the people who originally designed the ship and many others of the era, look quite so downcast as he was during that tour at what they'd done to one of his favourite ships. -
