Finished harvest last night. Family have deserted me for the week so I'm treating myself to a home grown porterhouse and some cricket, before we get into cleanup and cattle work tomorrow. @PerthScorchers have some work to do.

It's been a grind to finish, but stick a fork in us, we're done. Beautiful evening with the family and team to draw a line under long but very rewarding season. #harvest2025

It's exciting to announce that I'm running for District 1 in the CBH election with full endorsement of the candidate assessment panel. I'm an active farmer with an extensive grain industry skill set. I'm confident I can add value to District 1 growers and CBH. Vote 1 Bob Nixon.

In scenes reminiscent of the 2018 Comm Games, Perth residents are warned to be aware of a group British tourists masquerading as professional cricketers that may be planning to overstay their visas. No other explanation given for the village cricket played yesterday #Ashes2025

The criticism of the Perth test pitch is ridiculous. History said it would do a bit for a day and a half, then be a road for a couple of days, before becoming tricky in the last day or so. You're not entitled to try and go at 5 runs an over regardless of conditions #Ashes2025

Good evening WA woolgrowers. I’ve resurfaced after naively thinking that "wool was back" just a month ago, only to find us back in a situation where prolonged weak demand has extinguished what turned out to be a firecracker rather than a rocket. Fact is that less and less people

Things you hate to see: England's test top order getting a good tune up in NZ ready for the Ashes. If bazball doesn't work in a one-dayer against a near no name kiwi attack, it should be fun over five days at Perth Stadium against Hoff and co.

#PastureCrimes2025 Favourite time of the year. Not as impressive as last year, but still pretty handy. I'd love to see the performance of this stuff with an early break.
