I've been in this house 46 years and won't move anywhere unless I require palliative care. Don't have to worry about interest, commissions, inflation on house prices, et al. Moving costs money. Back to the weather. Rained again most of today, with a few bursts of brilliant sunshine. My daughter said she remembered from her pamphlet delivery days, if it was raining and you could see blue sky, it meant it was going to rain harder within 30 minutes.

On a dark desert highway, cool breeza in my hair.

I got a brochure in the mail for a prepaid cremation. Special offer: If I die in a fire I get half my money back.

They say the more colourful your salad is the better it is for you, so I replaced my croutons with M & M's.

Normally I would be at the Shed today. Got there today and the carpark was empty. Checked my phone and saw that the Co-ordinator had sent a text after I went to bed saying the Shed would be closed. He's been having a lot of flu problems. I turn my phone off completely overnight or it has less than 10% battery left in the morning. Didn't get the text till I was at the Shed.

Our NBN is up and down like a bride's nightie. You'll be working on posting and you'll get "No internet". It will be out for 5 to 15 minutes then come back on again. It was as slow as a wet week over the weekend. They were working on an upgrade on Friday, and are back again today. Playing havoc with my son working from home. He has had to resort to using the personal hotspot on his mobile phone.

Did you know that you are required to give way to pedestrians on a slip lane even if no pedestrian crossing is marked? The penalty for failure to comply is a fine of $500 and 3 demerit points. In Queensland, there are two offences related to failing to give way to pedestrians. Section 69(2A) of the Queensland Road Rules: This offence applies when a driver fails to give way when turning left from a slip lane, including to pedestrians. Section 81(2) of the Queensland Road Rules: This offence applies when a driver fails to give way at a marked pedestrian crossing. For both offences, the penalty is the same: a $500 fine and 3 demerit points. Similar rules apply in other states.

The US Supreme Court has approved Trump's actions on immigration, allowing ICE operatives to arrest and deport people from Southern California based on race and language. State governors in New York and Chicago have argued against Trump's federalisation of the cities and sending in troops because of the "chaos in the streets." They say that crime is down, murders, car theft, shootings, etc. Trump claims he saw it on TV. "What am I watching on the TV?" It appears he was probably watching Game of Thrones.

Gavin Newsom has a new name for Trump - the Nodfather.

This is the man they say is the greatest president of all time, the greatest leader in the world, a man in excellent health.

Only the slightest sprinkling of rain today, but it didn't get hot. Quite a bit of sunshine.

Think yourself lucky you're not driving in Chongqing City, China.

Have you heard about the Police Grappler Bumper? It's a new device for police to stop cars in a pursuit.
