Rock fans need to see the documentary Slade at Reading.

Ozzy's Blizzard of Oz cancelled so Slade was last minute replacement. Def Leppard tried to follow Slade's set, but Slade blew everyone off the stage and stole the show.

Outstanding.

Giving this one another run, since it's rainbow bee-eater season again. We only see them here during the warmer months.
This one performed an unorthodox landing 😄

It'd be even better of the head of the National Anti-Corruption Commission stepped away from the National Anti-Corruption Commission.

I've been to see the ultimate 'you had to be there' band tonight. But with live bands, you don't know until you've watched them. I always err on the side of 'go see them, you never know'.

Hi Daniel - thanks for letting me know. We've moved out whilst works are being carried out, so won't be there. The key is in the keylock, so you can let yourself in.

Trust you to come up with that thought! Try it and let me know the result 😜

Review of men's cotton trunks as motorcycle cleaning rags. Wide elastic waistband is great for getting into cracks and behind things. Gusset (snigger!), being double-layer, is good for washing larger painted areas. Downside: can be a bit big and flappy, and get caught on things. 8/10 😄 #motosky

After 20+ years living in Canberra, I finally visited the Australian Mint. Operations are a strange mix of high-tech (various robots) and manual (man with hammer), but cool to be able to watch everything from the public viewing platform. The displays they have are pretty interesting, too.
