I think it is something Canadians do. Maybe.

Australian Curling Federation
The Australian Curling Federation (ACF) is the national governing body for the Winter Olympic sport of Curling in Australia, and is a member of the World Curling Federation (WCF).
Within Australia there is curling available in 4 locations: Brisbane, Perth, Sydney and Melbourne.
Australia has Representative National Teams for Men’s, Women’s, Junior Men’s, Junior Women’s, Mixed Doubles, Mixed, Senior Men’s and Senior Women’s disciplines.
(Basically if we have heard of it you can be fairly sure an Aussie has had a crack at it. Probably over a drink in the first instance)
I think Kookaburras would make an excellent band name.Here is the Australian team playing

CURLING IS ICE BOWLING!
Sorry, I really hate curling.
In slow motion. With a broom.
More like shuffleboard, which is actually my favorite bar game.

I miss fixer too. Quality dude, super funny and a positive addition. But hey, we all need to check out from time to time for whatever reasons. Some of ‘our’ tangents lead to places that aren’t of interest to everyone. For example, I think it’s awesome that there are some car enthusiasts and why shouldn’t they talk about that if they like? It just so happens I won’t have anything to add to that sub topic, so I stay out of the way. I have zero doubt I’ve went on tangents that are more appealing to some folks than others.
Then, you skip a day or week and find you’re really behind! If I have to skip out awhile, I don’t try to ‘catch up...’just fast forward and dive back in

Shoulda said it was a "twofer".
Born/raised in Miami. I got into Hockey in the early '60s when NBC did one(1!)game a week. And, yes, best, most exciting game ever.
That looks pretty exciting too.Here is the Australian team playing

Hey @JJR58 , here's where those Rickenbacker p'ups went. There are cosmetic issues that were incurred in the process, so I won't do a close-up just now (
...), but the sound is big, curvy and beautiful. I am psyched for that part! Got a little fixin' to do for the presentation though...
And now, here's the Hambacker, wired up with the proper guts and pots, from a Ric 4001 schematic, cozying up to the Kustom Groove 310C I got from the sale of an old school Acoustic rig (that's been in the Classies here)... that rather hefty 3x10 combo is stupefyingly loud. Lol.

I'm just lovin that. 
I love my Vintage Pro. It sounds/plays awesome and looks like a 60s Bird. The nice part is I don’t worry about taking it to a gig, no matter how seedy the venue might be.Those Epi vintage style Birds look great!
It’s one of those sports that’s fun to play, but boring to watch.... unless it’s the Olympics... then it can get pretty heatedYou guys have Curling down under? Now that's an exciting sport!
