Sorry to do this again but my host made a bit of an error last night and accidentally deleted the site. If you have any of the posts from the 14th onwards… e.g. as an RSS feed… I’d appreciate you forwarding them to me so I can reinstate them. In the meantime I’m taking steps … More Call for old posts?
In the confusion surrounding the old mans decision to arrange his flight at the same time as the wife’s graduation ceremony… I forgot the problems we’ll have in other areas. To begin with, he has to be at the airport 2 hours before his flight leaves… so he needs to *be* there at 9:30 a.m. … More More on the chaos
So. Time moves fast when you’re having fun… or not. I came out of hospital feeling groggy as you’d expect so that took care of the 11th… and then went off next morning to the dentist for a filling… so more anaesthetics… and the wife insisted we walk over *and* back… which pretty much took … More Where've I been?
Part of the pleasure of the Ashes cricket test series over here is watching and listening to the ‘Barny Army’ that follows the English side around from game to game. The ‘Mexican Wave’ and the bugle calls add to the gentle pleasures for the crowd and relieve what can after all be occasionally… how can … More Fun turns to ashes,
Having got sworn yet at again by our resident “career victim” I’ve decided to drop out of Australian Opinion. I’ve been there virtually every day for the past 18 months and I think I need a break from it. Ok I know mods are supposed to above all that… but there are limits even for … More The 'other place'
In the UK Posties tend to be on foot… walking up and down streets, up and down steps, stairs, driveways etc… filling letter boxes and moving on. Here in Oz of course things are never that simple. The posties races around neighbourhoods on mopeds with sacks full of mail in panniers on the side. Done, … More It's a weird old place this – 2

Was reading the Phantom’s blog a short while ago where in short form he discusses the joy of cooking and presents the thesis that when it comes to food, consumer appreciation correlates closely with preparation time… more or less 🙂 I would never place my meagre skills in the same class as his, but there … More Not so souper.
Seems he missed the wife as well as he left me a little present this morning. I stepped in it as I wandered half asleep into the bathroom… ewww… what a job first thing in the morning. After that the day could only get better 🙂 My mother said “It’s lucky”. My retort was it … More Did I mention the dog?
Was intending to do masses today, but as ‘Phannie’ reminded me, I’d not even had time to rejig the theme I’d chosen to make it look right with the site! So… tomorrow you say? Well maybe not. The wife is off to Uni for a week from Sunday morning so maybe it’ll be an extra … More Workload.
