For the longest time, I have been a huge fan of Cold Rock ice cream stores.  Being able to chose your confectionery or biscuits  to be added to your favourite flavour ice cream, is  fantastic when beating the summer heat.

Course, I came across this clip on youtube, and well, I never knew you could put so many toppings in the one ice cream.   The Ultimate Ice cream and a New World Record.

With my second loss of network, due to the flooding, I found myself sitting down to watch one of the DVD’s I was given for Christmas by my Mum.

Red Dog  (2011).  A fantastic tale, based on a true story of a dog that became an inspiration to many in an outback mining town in Western Australia. With a ripper Australian cast, and amazing 70’s Oz rock soundtrack, its a movie that is going to make you laugh and cry.  Even if you aren’t a dog person, I highly recommend it, when you get the chance.

 

Johnny and Red Dog. Best Mates.

 

Cast:
Josh Grant, Rachael Taylor, Noah Taylor, Keisha Castle-Hughes, Paul Blackwell, Luke Ford, Bill Hunter, Tiffany Lyndall-Knight, Alex Williamson, John Batchelor, Eamon Farren, and Koko as Red dog.

In the tradition of Lassie, and adapted from the Louis de Bernieres best-selling novel, Red Dog is based on a true story. In this warm-hearted story, Red Dog becomes a legend with the wild outback locals. Along the way, Red Dog finds the person he’s been searching for…Sometimes you pick the dog. Sometimes the dog picks you!

The King of the Mountain – Peter Brock. (1945 – 2006)

Growing up, my dad loved to watch the Bathurst 1000 endurance race.  One driver whose name became synonymous with Bathurst, was Peter Brock, who won the race no less than nine times.  He won Sandown 500 nine times, and the Australian Touring car championship three times, and the Bathurst 24 hour endurance race once, and was inducted to the V8 Supercar hall of fame in 2001.

 

Peter Brock 1945 – 2006.

He was known as many names by his loyal fans.  Brocky, King of the Mountain, and Peter Perfect; for the way he was able to handle his cars on the grueling Bathurst track.  He drove Holden in the race for near forty years, from the Toranas, all the way up to the V8 touring cars.

Trivia:

.05 Holden Torana.

Brock also worked with the Victorian authorities promoting the campaign against drink driving. The most obvious sign of this association was the race car number 05 which related to the 0.05% blood alcohol limit in Victoria, which he utilized constantly from the mid-1970s. Most cars he raced in, regardless of the motor racing division, bore this number, including the car in which he died.

In honour of his achievements and in recognition of his contribution to Australian motorsport, the Bathurst 1000  winner’s trophy now carries his name.

He will forever be, the King of the Mountain.

An Australian Legend.
