    What is the difference between a French Kiss and an Australian Kiss? An Australian Kiss is down under.

    It's not a song, it's a frequently repeated expression from a family comedy show.
  5. Participation has been down for a few weeks. Our shed had a BBQ day today, run by the group from the ladies day. Quite a turnout.
  6. Both on Sunrise this morning with video interviews with various people. No.2 was on the Ch 7 News last night. Apparently it is already law in WA and NT.
  7. Yesterday I had a calibration appointment for my Cochlear implant. It started with the audiologist connecting the device to her computer and playing a range of beeps at various frequencies, starting too low to hear, and increasing them until they were at a comfortable volume. She then read out a number of words from a printed list of about 30, with her face obscured, and I had to locate the word on the list and repeat it without being able to lip-read. Passed that without problem. Next, she placed a page of 12 half sentences in front of me. Again, obscuring her face, she read out the full sentence which I had to repeat back to her. The example I recall was: Printed: She cleaned the floor.... The spoken sentence: She cleaned the floor with a mop and broom. I passed all 12 sentences at the first attempt. She said she normally doesn't get to pulling that page out until the second month. I've had the device for 9 days. I can now hold conversations, watch the TV, and talk on the phone without the hearing aid in the other ear.
  8. Two items on the news I invite you to comment on. 1. Bob Katter's renewed call for north Queensland to break away at the Tropic of Capricorn and form a new state. 2. A call for people 16 and over to be permitted to purchase and carry pepper spray.

    Trump's limo driver got arrested for possession of drugs. They found over 230 pounds of dope in the back seat.
  10. It's Barry Jones, Pick A Box wizard and Labor politition.

  12. What implications could this have for Labor's rulings on tech giants and social media's impact on children? https://topstoryusa.info/News/10502/
  13. I know it's a totally different animal, but my 22 year old Holden Astra, a rebadged German Opel, has the turn indicators on the left of the column, wiper/washers on the right. My daughter, for God knows what reason, has her heart set on a Ford Mach 1, the electric version of the Mustang. It has the 'gear' selector on the right of the column.
  14. Clue - he turned 94 last Sunday.
