OK. This event is called "mutton-busting" and I guess it's self-explanatory and it's prepping future cowboys and cowgirls. The idea is for the kid to stay on the sheep for a certain amount of time, like 8 seconds. They usually don't. In fact, they usually fall off immediately. But, you gotta admit these little kids are quite brave and really look like they have a great time, even after falling. This event is for the miniature rodeo clowns as well!
Coolamon. Population 1,700.
The Aboriginal word for a hollowed out or curved wooden vessel carried mainly by women is Coolamon. It is a generic Aboriginal word used across Australia. The clay landscape around the town of Coolamon is pitted with small indentations that can fill with water after rain hence the name. The first white pastoralist took up leasehold land here in 1850 as the Keandra Creek run of almost 20,000 acres. The other run nearby was Ganmain run. When the Junee to Narrandera railway was being planned the government resumed land to create a township in 1880. Modern Coolamon calls itself the “hay and chaff capital” of the Riverina. After the railway from Junee to Narrandera and Hay reached the town in 1881 the town was declared just before its arrival. A Post Office opened in 1881 and town lots were sold to the public in 1882. Any town this far west needed a railway to Sydney to make farming viable which it then had so the district became a grain growing district. But the government was slow to release land for selection. However by 1884/85 Coolamon had stores, two hotels, a school and an Anglican Church and around 200 residents and in 1887 a flour mill opened in the town. As the town progressed the Shire of Coolamon was established in 1907. One old general store which was established in 1907 was rebuilt in 1909 and is now the combined Information Centre, museum, library, café and shop. The museum has great contrast in its collections from farm machinery to 250 crochet items! Nicholas Mutton, an aptly named butcher, purchased the weatherboard general store in 1908 but he wanted a new impressive general store. He had the Up to Date Store built in red brick in 1909. The architect was William Monks of Wagga Wagga who also designed the Wagga Wagga Catholic Cathedral. Was this department store name a good marketing name and logo? The store closed in 1932 but the Mutton family owned the shop which was used for other commercial purposes until 1987. The local Council then bought it in 1996 for community uses. The store still has its ball cash delivery system when one cashier handled all cash but this was is not a pneumatic tube system, or even a wire carrier system but a ball gravitation system. That American system was patented in 1881 and works with a simple ball placed on sloping rails to roll down by gravity to the cashier, and for a rail sloping in the opposite direction to return the receipt, and any change to the customer. There are only two known – one in Stanley in Durham England and the other one in Coolamon. With luck you might be able to buy some local Coolamon cheese in one of the town shops.
The town has many interesting and some Art Deco buildings. The wooden railway station was built about 1885 and the impressive Coolamon Hotel across the road from it began around 1885 when it was only a bush shanty which was replaced by a grand building around 1900 which was renovated after a fire in 1990. The School of Arts was built in 1901 and the outstanding Commercial Banking Company of Sydney building was constructed in 1907 when designed by architect Ernest Laver of Cootamundra. In the same year Laver was the architect of the CBC Bank in nearby Temora. The old Fire Station, which is now the Information Centre, was built in 1933. The former Coolamon Cooperative Society store built in the Main Street in 1924 is now the Coolamon Cheese Company. It has a fine shop, huge café and produces in the building blue cheese, brie, cheddar, pepper cheese etc. Another building of merit is another former bank in the main street built in 1907 with classical and Art Deco features. It was probably the Bank of NSW. The old building marked as the RSL Club rooms has an interesting history. It was built, as the sign says, in 1907 as a coffee palace. The RSL was formed in 1919 and used the Coolamon Shire Hall for many years until 1947 for its meetings. It then purchased the old coffee palace as its club rooms. The Coolamon Shire Council was formed in 1906 and the foundation stone of the architect designed Shire Hall and Council Chambers was Ernest Laver of Cootamundra. The Council Chambers on Wagga Wagga Road were completed in 1914.
Taken for the friday food fiesta (Curry week)
It was a tough decision again this week. I did thai green curry not too long ago and also didnt wanted to have japanese curry because everyone seem to be eating that this week so I thought I'll go with something a bit more uncommon.
The golden pillow was going to be my first choice. That's traditional chicken curry that wrapped in a oil paper parcel, wrapped in bread dough and baked. The bread is broke open and the parcel unwrapped and its basically eaten using the bread layer as a dip. However, when I tried to order that yesterday, I was told they were all sold out.
I went for Indian curry tonight as a last attempt to take something for this week's theme. This is dinner at Samy curry in dempsey road. A quaint little eating place where the food is served on banana leaves and where the dishes of the day are brought to be looked at in little metal pots. We had mutton curry, fish head curry and tandoori chicken on a mix of white rice, briyani rice and side dishes of yoghurt cucumber, chickpea curry and papadams. All that is washed down by freshly squeezed ice cold lime juice.

The Shoulder of Mutton Inn public house on Burnley Road at Toad Carr in Todmorden
Note, Mary and Jonas Turner established the Shoulder of Mutton public house circa 1783 but the building could date from the previous century. It was renamed as the House that Jack Built circa 1974 after rebuilding by Jack Brook and was later further renamed Jack’s House
The photograph was possibly taken in the early 1930s. Click here for a view around 80 years later

Dear Future Ex-Girlfriend,
I thank you for leaving your bra on my bicycle. I've never seen a bra quite like this, but my chops fit nicely through the slits in the cups. We should get to know each other better. To facilitate this, I'll leave my boxers on the handlebars with my phone number written on them.
If you want your bra back, or want to give me more cool stuff...you know where I park.
Talk soon.

The age of riders ran from 3 -8 years old. Thiis is one of the girls who made a decent ride but it was shortly about to end.
The first beard mutation. A classic of rock and politics.
A style sometimes known as 'friendly mutton chops'
"Facial hair was big in the 19th century. Look at paintings or photographs from this time, and chances are the men will have beards, moustaches or sideburns – and sometimes elaborate combinations of all three.
For much of the century, the emphasis was on beards and ’burns. Big hairy beards were all the rage in the middle decades. The bushier the beard, the more virile the man, some people believed. In an age as obsessed with health issues as our own, some people claimed that good beards meant good health."

Shalgam Gosht or Muttun Curry cooked with Turnip is a winter staple and is best enjoyed with Phulke or Steamed rice. Make this while the best of Turnips are available in the market. Click on the link for the recipe.
The urban dictionary defines mutton chops as "Sideburns that have grown to a size at which they have overtaken the edges of the face and are working their way towards each other. Possibly the best thing to happen to the side of the head since ears."
Bruno thinks a better version is him holding a squeaky sheep toy in his chops.

I have a feeling that this photo may be given a dogversation in the future, but for now it's just a simple post.
