Very disappointed in @Toyota_Aus. No extension to three year fixed service deal on new car even though still nowhere near the 60,000K because no-one's been going anywhere!

And that's a wrap. After 38 years I'm putting down the pen, closing the keyboard and stepping into retirement. The full pipe and slippers malarkey, just without the pipe and slippers.

I generally choose to attend one non-family christmas event each year. In 2019 it was interrupted by bushfires, in 2020 by Northern Beaches lockdown, in 2021 the venue has been flooded. #msgfromtheuniverse

I consider myself relatively balanced, able to accept, even appreciate all manner of contrariness. But arranging your books by the colour of their spines IS A STEP TOO FAR.

Oh SMH subscriptions you're a caution. Thankyou for correcting my fees and crediting me with $1.117336858. Now how will I spend the extra 0.007336858?

Two hours last night following an Ottelenghi recipe to the T. Turns out I made mushrooms on toast.

Canberra folks at a loose end - son's band Beta Males playing tonight at the Basement. Not half bad.

New business starts were at their lowest for four years in the last financial year – but even so, more businesses started than stopped.

sometimes we forget how lucky we are: bus to Castlereagh Imaging, x-ray taken, films handed over, bus home. Total time - 56 minutes. Out of pocket expense $2.26 for bus.

Don't you dare turn your back on a woman speaking in parliament ever again.

I am having a coffee so strong that I am reminded of the French truck driver, who after drinking a similarly strong brew said "Now I am ready - for love, for life, for war!"

Ok - seriously weird. Dreamed last night of old friend from university (not a romantic friend, entirely platonic). Not thought about him in years. Facebook this morning suggests his wife as a friend. (cue creepy music)
