I am having so much fun exploring this new lifestyle
You're doing the Derby trails? How are you liking our little island?

Derby is beyond description for the trails.
Mind blowing. Will absolutely be back.

Afternoon all,

Well it's another warm day in Melbourne town which is why I'm staying inside where it's cool, just naturally cool in the house. Have moved one of the fans into the lounge room though but the it's one of the less powerful ones. May have to break out the portable air cooler in the coming weeks. Now it's a case of dressing for each day depending on the weather and lots of combinations of clothes.

Just watching the NFL, like I do every Monday. Not one of the fav teams playing but I like to commentary on NBC.

So I tried the early voting thing and was rather surprised how well it went. I actually met all the major candidates and shook their hands and even scored a free pen from the independent candidate. I discovered all these dudes are on the short side. They look taller in their advertising . There were more people outside handing out stuff than inside voting, so didn't have to stand in line and I was done in a couple of minutes. Took longer to walk to the voting place than actually voting. Will use the early voting option again for the main election. Very good option since the location was so close.

Still not sure what the whole Blue Bus thing actually achieved for ScoMo, just a waste of tax payers money considering he was hardly on it. Then pretending he was using the bus. A normal car pick up from each regional airport would of been cheaper. When I was a kid people on the blue bus were considered "special". Don't think ScoMo wants that title.

I see Rump is doing his best to piss of Europe and China. He is fast running out of countries to piss off, now he's try to piss off entire continents. Trouble with being a dictator you eventually come to a sticky end.

Now looking forward to the Christmas lunch since I don't have to do all that driving this year. Even with the cost of the lunch it's still cheaper than what I normally have to do. Given the cost of petrol, I'm also saving half a tank.

So Trolley Man is out on bail. At least now he has the dollars to pay for bail. Since he now has all those dollars he is the one who needs to be worried of people robbing him. We live in the age of the instant celebrity thanks to social media. Quick to make a "villain" or "hero". Was interesting that the person who started the funding page doubled down on stating their decision. May be next time don't be so quick to make a decision. Camera phones just like any camera is only a small window on the world.

Hope the week is good for you.

Hope you watched the game today, one of the best I have seen. Third highest scoring game of all time with two teams that were 9 wins 1 loss.

Just wow, not a fan of either team but when you have a 54-51 game in NFL OMG. Now throw the Saints in the mix (also 9-1), and who knows. There are some powerhouse offenses this year and can't wait for the playoffs.

I am so jealous! I'm so pleased to hear that things are improving for you. Pity about your wrist not recovering so well. I hope it improves soon!


I have another date tonight! It'll be my second date with him....and he seems nice...so hopefully...

Saw one of my fav teams be knocked out of the post season even though there are more games to come before that. Green Bay have just lost too many matches this year. I like their QB but the poor guy just gets sacked too often.

And yep saw that game, and yep not a real fan of either team.

Afternoon all,

Was a very early morning for me compared to normal. Had to get up early to put the car in for the quick service. Wasn't prepared for the heavy traffic, then sat in the car for over ten minutes waiting to get to the front of the check-in queue. The morning traffic has got a lot worse since I've retired. Doesn't also help that people are even more distracted these days when driving. Sitting at lights just means they need to catchup on their social media, so fucking annoying. Wish I had a megaphone attached to my car. "Hey you if you're not going to drive your car get of the fucking road so others can use it."

It seems the Libs still haven't got the message. Waiting for the next Fed election will seem so much longer considering we have a govt that is just a clusterfuck. Can't get anything right. Saw a bit of Q&A and I now believe those dudes who are trying to get dinosaurs back, saw Eric Abetz speaking, an yep dinosaurs do exist. Where is a fucking meteor when you need one.

Apparently me sitting is a traffic jam is caused by immigrants who don't have a car license let alone can afford to own a car. As for the public transport being crowded well all that happened when petrol went above $1 per litre, prior to that sitting on the bus or tram going to work was comfortable. No talk of immigrants then just the cost of petrol going up and the warning that public transport was going to get more crowded and that State Govt's needed to think about infrastructure. None of them did, hence the current issue. At least Melbourne is making an attempt to fix the issue. Won't do me much good though. By the time the current rail works are finished I won't be living in the city.

Had to laugh at the Vic Libs plans to privatise the sewerage works. I mean the Libs have privatised all other govt services now they wanted to privatise our shit. They are really running out of ideas. They tried the race card and the fear campaign. That stuff doesn't work here in Melbourne town, might be ok for FNQ. Now the NSW govt want to reduce the amount of people in Sydney which also includes foreign students, the Melbourne Uni's must love that idea. All the HQ's of the major companies including the banks might relocate if they can't get foreign workers. All those accountants from the UK must be worried. Careful what you wish for. IT companies have already relocated to Brisbane due to the high cost of office space in Sydney. Do they really want to lose more revenue? I remember when you could only get an international flight to the US from Sydney. Now they don't want anymore people flying in. Stupid idea.

I hear that there was some cricket going on in the country. Funny how we could see the Women's cricket from Barbados but not the cricket in our own country. The all mighty dollar at work again. The place is becoming more like the US where you have to have cable to see anything. Way to go CA . I'm not expecting much from the Channel 7 coverage given their false advertising, where "you can see every ball... (on selected games of our choosing)".

The local council pulled a surprise a few weeks ago with speed humps in the main exit street from my place. However I've found a work around and I'm sure so have other locals. The bus passengers are possibly not happy either.

Hope the rest of the week is good for you.

Where to start!?!
I was rather impressed that he made such an effort. He even had his hair cut to see me He was much more gentlemanly than I was expecting....until we got naked and he was a little rough, so I still feel slightly...swollen still. It's been a little over 7 years and the Roaccutane makes my skin rather sensitive and fragile.
For a short guy, he has a big cock. He's coming over again tomorrow, so I might have to be a little more assertive with him so I don't end up breaking myself!!

Yay. We're all the imaginary crazies in the room cheering on the action. Get your arse up on top girl.

Looked like Mundine took a dive at around 90 seconds...... KO'd by a soft as air Horn punch.
Got his big payout though!
What a disappointing fight.

One for the retirement fund for both. Not going to earn Horn any quality fights. Looking forward to the Mundine biography and interview down the track now that he can drop the angry man marketing persona. It sold fights for years, but sitting at the next table from him and Danny Green and promoters when they were discussing details of having one last fight I heard the voice of another type of fellow.

Yeah, The boxing and the WW Wrestling are a money making machine, that's about it.
If the real fans only knew what goes on behind the scenes.

Afternoon all,

Well it has been a warm start to the week here in Melbourne town and going to get hotter for the next couple of days. Good days to wash the heavier things, everything dries overnight.

Been a busy couple of days. Discovered that I was a couple of days too early for the Christmas stuff. They were still putting things on shelves with no price tags so I guess I'll have to go back next week. The grocery shopping was a little quiet as well. The checkout dude was playing on his phone since he didn't have any customers. Going booze shopping tomorrow to beat the usual Christmas crowds. This time I found the brandy custard before it gets sold out, but then found it hard to find the puddings. They need to get their shit together.

So the govt is now going for the bottom up approach. Who knew they were into anal! Must have lots of closet anal-ists. Caught a re-run of The Hollowmen series. They really should do another series of that given what has gone on over the last few years.

Channel 9 taking over the tennis. Guess 7 isn't "the home of tennis" as they kept saying previously. Cricket test tomorrow so will watch that after I get back from the shopping and the heat. Done far too much sweating already in the last couple of days, so a cold drink and watching the cricket sounds like a nice way to cool down. Also saw that there was cricket on in Adelaide but no trains to get fans to the cricket. Like who was the brains trust making that call. Hopefully when they build the submarines, they'll remember to test them in water rather than the Barossa. "Ah yes well... it sinks like a stone but boy does it hold a lot of grapes."

So David Attenborough made his speech and nobody at that conference cared. Well done world leaders. The human race can't even be bothered to save themselves, just their money. Then again most of those dudes will be dead when things get worse so not their problem. Don't think going to Mars is going to save us either.

Hope the rest of the week is good for you. Hopefully those impacted by the bushfires in Qld and the floods in NSW are getting some relief.

Relief from the heat today in the Brisbane area... thankfully.

Would be good to just have a snap Election and move on... they’re getting tiresome with their navel gazing bollocks!

Think you need to understand SA doesn't have a very extensive rail network, it is more about buses. On the other hand it is a new Lib. government which at this stage seems out of their depth. They just put in the most draconian laws in Australia for vaping... say what?
As for the subs the French are building them we are just supplying labour lol.
Lastly I would much rather go to McLaren Vale than the Barossa any day, better wine, less tourism and no subs!

Having a wonderful time perving on an Italian waterpolo team having a training camp here in Perth, running on the beach and in the surf. Pertperth where are you hon? Come down and get some mental image bank credits up. Absolutely delightful.

Hello! It's been quiet in here!
Where do I start on my update? It's been a mixed bag! Good though.
I've seen him a few times now - he's nice! I think I might have offended him a few times with my sense of humour...sarcasm obviously doesn't translate well (He's Colombian) but he seems to like me too...so all good.

As for the sex, I feel like I'm having to learn it all again. We had much better sex (and I actually had an orgasm - a rare event during sex for me!) the second time...the next time he wasn't feeling well...so back to not-so-fabulous. Then Saturday night, my son had his first sleepover so we could go out to dinner and sex....and have morning sex. YAY! But after dinner we were both so tired that neither of us could climax. Booo! Seriously. Is this old people sex? I think he was trying to be gentlemanly and wait for me, but I was so tired (I have been doing bathroom renovations, plus had the solo mum's Christmas pool party at my house, so have been having very long, physically demanding days. As well as being a solo mother working full time) and my sciatic is still bothering me...anyway... long story is that we tried. And tried. And tried.
And tried again in the morning. So all fun...but....we promised each other we'd do more practise until we got it right. YAY!

Oh and he shaves (totally not used to that!) and was a bit prickly, so I've gotten a bit of a rash from him on my butt. Boo!

Now he's come down with the flu, so I'll not see him until Sunday. Probably a good thing...I need to rest a little!!

Don't feel any different.

There's just this old wierdo looking at me in the mirror most mornings now.

Great to hear a good news story, even though there's been ups and downs. Of all sorts.
Dated a single mum many years back and it was tough. I was immature and she had priorities that could not budge. Understand that now. I could have been a better person and it would have been easier all round. Was fun while it lasted but ended oddly.
However, your situation sounds good. Lots of practice is the key.
Got my fingers crossed you get what you're aiming for.

Ah yes the days when we had expertise in building our own military stuff. All gone now.

Yep I noticed that buses are the way to go in Adelaide. A bit like Perth, not sure which has the larger bus network. As you know we are big on trams here in Melbourne town but they usually end in what we call Zone 1, about 1 hour from the city centre using the network. The best trams are for the tourists in the city centre so they get a false impression of how modern our trams are.

Hey I heard that SA is going to be the home of the new Space Agency. Wow they'll be able to send Sub's into space

 

[darkelf9]

Just checking in .. cos I’m Australian .. Hi!

Not sure you said that right...Ouzestralia, there you go.

Now for the sake of security just some questions:

a. Thongs, on the feet or on your hips?

b. Meat pies, eaten with a knife and fork or with your hands?

c. Pro_cess or Pros_cess?

d. Snag or sausage?

e. Onions on top of a the snag or under?
