Sure and begorrah, the Sgt's name must have been Paddy?

Pete, there's a Chinese mob coming out with a mozzie zapper design, based on lasers and tracking mozzies - but still in the design stage, though. They're still looking for more money, and the sad part is, they're talking about US$600 for the finished item. I'm still relying on lots of hard-working spiders and their industrious web-spinning. I used to knock down their annoying webs, now I'm getting soft and leaving then and walking around them - realising just how many bugs they do catch! https://newatlas.com/around-the-home/photon-matrix-laser-mosquitoes/

He'll never be released, the Govt has passed special laws specifically applying to him, to stop from ever getting any kind of release, and to stop him from using the courts constantly for his personal grievances. He makes a good case for the death penalty, makes you wonder what benefit there is, in keeping him alive.

Just more AI/Farcebook rubbish.

You might get something in the next week or two, OME - there's a series of tropical NW/SE cloudbands forming across Australia, with Kalgoorlie copping it yesterday from one of them. Kalgoorlie recorded its heaviest-ever October rainfall - 60mm. However, official weather records only started in Kalgoorlie in 1939, which surprises me, as official weather records usually start in the mid to late 1800's. https://www.weatherzone.com.au/news/vast-northwest-cloudband-brings-record-rain-to-was-largest-inland-city/1890923

Gee, you'd have to have a warped sense of humour to do that, to innocent people!!

I don't know about "dearer" - that looks like "long and painful", with more neck pain than ever! There's nothing like tribal stupidities!

It looks like the kind of place that sovereign citizens would hide out in. 👮‍♂️

Roll. Sausage roll. Drum roll. Spring roll.

A - Haddock.

We had a nice burst of Spring weather last week, it was 29° on Friday in the wheatbelt - but it wasn't a pleasant day, a gusty Nor-Wester was blowing, ahead of a series of incoming cold fronts. I couldn't keep my Akubra on my head! - it kept blowing off with wind gusts, and I hate that! Saturday morning turned into Winter again, and it rained and showered all weekend. We got around 20mm, and the rain went through the wheatbelt of W.A. in varying amounts as well. Just enough rain to mess up hay cutting! Hay cutting season is always the same, the hay always gets rained on as soon as it's cut! But the upside is, the grain crops are looking better than I've seen in several years. We're on our way in this State to crack a total crop tonnage of more than 25M tonnes, that has only ever happened twice before here, in 2021 and 2022, surprisingly (in the midst of COVID). However, the world grain harvest is bountiful, so the grain prices are sagging. The road trains and rail trains have been going flat-chat, trying to empty wheat bins, ahead of the bumper crop.

Think outside the box.

There is no one (1) to (2) blame.

Inside job.

These REBUS' are way too easy, you're doing Marty out of a job!

Forget it.

No, Qld doesn't have the highest crime rate in Australia, NT holds that dubious honour. Alice Springs is the only place I've seen Police standing at the checkout exits in supermarkets, waiting to grab the steady numbers of shoplifters, red-handed.

First aid.

Eyeshadow.

It appears Victoria has become Crime Central out of all the States, as crime levels rose over 15% there last year. The Victorian Police are grumbling about poorly-structured bail laws that allow repeat criminals to be released, straight after they've been arrested. Repeat offenders should not be bailed, repeat offending shows they're only thumbing their nose at the law. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-10-05/victorian-government-mike-bush-handling-of-youth-crime/105845950

Uphill?

Of course, they've had to rename it as Cockwell Inn, and they serve Dickins Cider there.

Bump in the night.

Blood is thicker than water.
