Oddball is an Aussie movie @Boo so don't be disappointed you hadn't heard of it. It's based on a true story though. At Maddie's age the kids favourite TV show was an Austrian Police drama called Inspector Rex.... totally in German which neither of us speak but she loved it. So random thought....I think this ghost gum is giving me a brown eye

Double decker trains, seriously what are you trying to make up for Sydney? Discovering Sydney coffee is shit.

Or she could stalled somewhere between here and there. Only in Sydney long enough to jump a train to Windsor.

Let's start with what I'm not doing, I'm not cruising at an altitude of 13,000ft half way to Sydney..... what I am doing is waiting in the terminal after spending 30mins sitting on a plane where the engine stalled on the runway waiting for a new plane.

Omg....you in for a nice warm summer @Doreensfree. Remember the blockout... all the locals know the rules, Slip Slop Slap. One of the nicest beaches I've been too. From memory the surf is pretty mild rougher at the end closest to town but much calmer if you walk a bit further north. The theme parks if that's ya thing, are about a 2 hour drive away but that could be a day for the kids.

Olivia Newton-John burst onto the wordl stage as Sandy but she had been stunning us all down under with her country singing and yodelling for years...then you mob stole her and turned her into a Pop singer....but she was more than just an entertainer, despite her long battle with cancer she gave so much back diwn here, hell she even gave us a hospital and was the first one back for any charity event.... VALE Olivia, may you be singing with the chior and pain free from now on. RIP..

Has @Boo's little princess watched Oddball? It has everything you could want...penguins, dogs, baddies and laughs.

Yet another Aussie music legend has taken their final bow. RIP Judith Durham....

Soo..just went and put the plug in the bathroom sink, filled it up and the pulled the plug to observe the direction the water drained. It drained CLOCKWISE. So I went an flushed the dunny....our toilets don't swirl when ya flush em.....so I asked Madam Google and I now know a shit ton more than I ever did about the Coriolis effect...but no idea about water going down drains.....I like to believe the science source I read that said it's both...it just depends on the physicality of the sink and the plug hole. RANDOM THOUGHT - why did I spend an hour of my Saturday morning confirming to my family I am a bit more than slightly insane.

Dusty....the dumbest bitsa on earth.

Fairy bread @DenaliBlues ...Ahi... we just call it yellowfin. Tend to have more bluefin to fish down south where I am but up north where NOPE Dave lives there is good yellowfin fishing.

When I can I like to post something bush tuckerish....or from my parts of the world... ensaimada

Sometimes a singer and a song writer is more than just an entertainter.....Archie Roach was an elder, a leader, a teacher and an example for all that regardless of the crap you get dealt and the hardships you face your life is always what you make it and you can rise above, but more importantly bring others with you. My favourite Aystralian of the year your passing is way to soon but your music will forever be the soundtrack of my life. VALE ARCHIE! And the last song...
