The White Girl - Tony Birch

Set before Indigenous Australians were granted voting rights (1962) & full citizenship (1967). Depicts the practice of forcibly removing fair-skinned children from their families.

The fight and love to keep family together.

Laughed. Cried. Got angry

I reckon I've got the best lawn in the neighbourhood. If I do say so myself.

Oh, good God. I've turned into my father. 😃

Temperature forecasted to be 27 deg C today. I'll take that after a dreary rainy weekend.

Broken Archangel: The Tempestuous Lives of Roger Casement - Roland Philipps

Very detailed read on his work on the Congo, Amazon and the fight for Irish independence.

Would have liked a bit more of an insight into his childhood though.

Christmas in the City.

Sad looking Christmas decorations on Swanston Street and a "traditional English pub" Aussie style.

Working Class Man was written by an American. NO FUCKEN WAY!!!

By a band member of Journey and now a Contemporary Christian Artist (Jonathan Cain), no less.

ALL HER FAULT - Binge (2025)

What started off as "spot the Melbourne location for a story set in Chicago" game turned into a rather enjoyable crime / thriller drama.

Sarah Snook is very good and carried the show.

The star jasmine is in full bloom, and the floral scent is going right through the house.

Quite lovely, really.

A shame they never finished Parliament House. It was supposed to have a dome in the centre of it.

Stand up and be proud Australia.

Having a former opposition Deputy Leader (and potential Deputy Prime Minister of Australia) on the right and said politician so blind drunk he falls on the footpath and continues his phone call….might not be the worst thing a politician could do.
