Rockfall on Corin Dam road

You mightn’t get a Kenworth around it but a careful driver in something smaller…np.

The portaloos will start smelling like the Festival really happened…

I’m serious starting to have misgivings about the Internet Rule No. 34.…

I’m sorry – not my meaning at all. Although you have me intrigued….no…no…I won’t go there.

In my understanding, “[insert word]-porn” refers to excessively geeky, and perhaps slightly over-excited, fascination with galleries of pictures relating to a very narrow area of interest.

My understanding from working with the nerdy world is that it would be described as rockslide pr0n.

I saw some other pics and there are more rocks behind the big one in the bend.

Lucky you brought that up again, I first read: “Anybody who, like me, is a fan of rock spider porn”

I stopped wondering why he didn’t want to go near a court of law.

well they’re not out of food or water at the Corinbank site as far as I know.

Or beer.

In fact, with zero guests having turned up, supplies should be looking very good indeed.
Would there be anywhere better you could trapped this week, in the world?

johnboy said :

Minor point that the road is closed for fear of further falls.

You mean there are a couple of flimsy yellow trestle-style road barriers sitting in the middle of the road somewhere down near Tidbinbilla road?

ACT Coroner’s report: “I find they died of a combination of starvation and exposure due to being trapped on Corin road. They were unable to be rescued because somebody had put a couple of flimsy yellow trestle-style barriers across the road. The ACT government bureaucrat in charge of flimsy yellow road barrier decisions was off on stress leave after having to make 17 decisions in one week”.

Trapped….seperated?

You could drive a Kenworth around those rocks!

Yeah, because any sensible Kenworth driver would really love to stick his centre of gravity over the side of a mushy verge…..

Otherwise – valid point – maybe they’re talking about people with no friends or family to come and pick them up from the other side of the rockfall?
