I love the Rolling Stones music and have all of the best albums. A lot of the songs have references to rocks, stones and falling down. This is quite apt for what follows.
When we first moved to McLeod Bay I jokingly pointed to the strange and massive rock formations on Mount Aubrey up behind our house and said to the Old Girl "I hope they don't fall down". She assured me that as they had been there for squillions of years it was unlikely that they would choose to fall down now.
Thats our house with the driveway to the left. Note rock formations on Mount Aubrey above. |

The slips have destabilised the land here and there and last weekend one of the 'immovable' boulders, part of the rock formations, fell off Mount Aubrey and crashed down through the bush and came to rest behind one of the houses on the West side of the mountain.
You can see the scale of the boulder by the man inadvisably leaning on it. |
I did a Google search for Rolling Stone song titles and came up with a few appropriate ones:
Before They Make Me Run
Coming Down Again
Out Of Control
Tumbling Dice
Rain Fall Down
Rip This Joint
Rocks Off
Heart Of Stone
Rock And A hard Place
Gimme Shelter
Send It To Me
Slipping Away
Let It Loose
Shattered
Down The Road Apiece
and of course,
Like A Rolling Stone
