some synonyms for imminent In W.A., also known as God's country because it is like living in heaven, things move at a different pace to anywhere else on planet Earth.

imminent, not to be confused with eminent, means any of the following.

near
looming
at hand
overhanging
menacing
threatening
overjangiong
lowering
proximate

of these I think manacing and threatening are the closest in meaning Carpenter meant in his comments yesterday.

use of the word in W.A. parlance, implying time, is more like the word manyana. Which I think means some time later, and only perhaps tomorrow or the day after.

Every thing moves
more slowly
in
god's
country
because they
have
eternity
to
get
through
before
anything
needs to be
done
and
Mr.
Bowler
reads
slowly
because
he is
a
westralian....

westralian means someone educated in the Western half of Australia. all such people find leaning and reading a difficult task because they have no need to do anything today. perhaps, manyana will be fast enough. and they love jerry springer and that sortof stuff because in westralia no-one is that interesting.

I'm so glad I live east of the blue mountains facing the blue Pacific.
