Yes, i did notice Bridget saying 'one time'. That may or may not be linked to how keen i am with a lawn mower.

Well done folks.
You noticed my little caveat.

Well I'm up, various teenagers found in enclaves around the house, and fed...pancakes made with fresh chooky eggs. Said house scoured, washing done.

Rain ordered and arrived in perfect time and pressure to water in massive bush regen project planted Friday.

Sitting on lounge in ball-y tracky dacks watching rain.

Ahhhh....life is good.

Did you go to the meet up.....if so, how was it? Tell us all about it

Brilliant craic. The restaurant was packed and us bang smack in the middle roaring with laughter. Heads turned everywhere, must have been wondering what we were all on. Oney is twice as funny in real life, if that is possible.

Evening all,

The Dandenong's are beeeeauwdiful indeed Reggie, and would've been magnificent today. I will show Jonesy if/when she comes to Melbourne. Devonshire tea dear?

Noice little gig today. A fairly hardcore alkie local crowd. (Tawny was there sipping on a latte reading a book. I think she thought Normie Rowe was on later. ). There were some very red faced, smoking, big drinker's there listening to us, and interacting. Folk's from 40's to 60's. Geez, it was a little hard to watch actually, cause i know where they're at, and sadly, many of them will shorten their lifespans by many, many year's. One bloke, prob in his 50's, who knew us from the last time we played there, told me he had had a great morning, as he'd worked on his hotrod at home for the first time in ages. My ear's pricked up cause it sounded like my past. He spoke about 2 things stopping him. 1. depression. 2. alcoholism. We chatted for a bit, and he'd done 10 months af before, but was totally bored, and was in deprivation mode, not gratitude mode, so he missed the grog, and hadn't turned his life and motivation around. I told him i knew where he was coming from, as i'm nearly 2 yrs. sober. His eyes widened, and just for a second, i think he saw it was possible, and not everyone in a pub is necessarily drinking, and you can exist happily, (well, much more happily) without the booze, it's just a big effort and requires work and a bit of change at the start. Anyway, off he went, an intelligent, seemingly good man. Hope we don't lose him before his time. Sorry to ramble folk's, but i love any talk involving the possibility of freedom. Please resume normal transmission.

G'day KT and Sapp!

Ah, brilliant to hear KT.

Hi Mr G. I hear you loud and clear on that guy, I know a few of the local bar flys who I would love to reach out too, but you are right it is their perception of depravation and life will be so dull that stops them taking the leap. That and the addictive nature of the beast of course. Sad really, but what can you do, except maybe share in a non intrusive way the fact that there is a viable and very real alternative.

I hear that Mr G.

Isn't it increasingly 'obvious' as you see it from the outside. The bright red faces. The people who seem to over explain themselves regarding anything to do with alcohol.

God it's so sad.


KTAB ... I knew that would be a hell of a get together...and I have no doubt that Oney is exponentially funny...what a girl. Is that the first time you've met her in person ?

Hello G. I hear you loud and clear about these folks. Closer to home my BIL has a serious serious problem with the booze and is in such deep denial about it that he refuses to have checkups at the drs. refuses to have medicals for work etc. etc. Doesnt want to be faced with some hard cold facts about what is really happening. I worry that my younger sister will be left alone when he finally succumbs to the ravages. But what can you do....I have tried to give him advice (unsolicited) and he is not interested.....I gave up, but it is still hard to watch what is happening.
