  1. A new definition of always from Officeworks: We check our competitors’ prices daily, then drop ours. So you always get the lowest price, guaranteed. *Exclusions apply.
  2. My mum had 2 1/2 years to go, but she fell badly and that was that.
  3. Our pathetic PM has again failed to show leadership on terrorism. God help us all if he is anywhere near Canberra when Australia comes under direct threat.

  7. Aussie choc has more anti- melting stuff in it.
  8. If that was during the Covid panic, the other thing missing was the hordes of Asian tourists driving badly.
  9. In Vic our electricity grid is about to be overwhelmed by excess solar power. Maybe tomorrow. It will be funny if the grand final coverage drops out.
  10. We export raw minerals mainly because Australia self-imposes industrial, environmental and "net zero" regulations that other countries don't have. I don't see that changing.

Closure will be blamed on costs, but we have the cost environment we have chosen.
  11. Selfies! Idiots!
  12. In 1959 I paid 1/- for a piece of plywood to make a boomerang. I bought it at the side door of FA Stowe & Co in North Albury. I still have the boomerang and can provide photographic evidence if required.
  13. To solve a relationship for x these days means posting it online.
  14. We had two good secondhand shops nearby. 5hey have both gone upmarket into collectibles and antiques.
  15. In an earthquake you could see the Gherkin jerkin'.

  24. The old term “slinging mullock” means criticising or abusing someone. I grew up with it.
