WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO WIN A GRAND FINAL SERIES?
A deep, productive bench.
A coach who has 'been there'.
Home court advantage.
Luck.
Defensive identity. (Defence travels)
Hunger (the reason why Hawks got 2025)
An excellent point guard.
An inside presence.

So, I'm rubbing stuff on my sore knee, and I look out of the window, and I see our resident rat mum moving house - one baby at a time. Overhead, a kookaburra, but the rat uses the open gate as cover.
This was trip 2. She made 3 trips while I was watching.
It's a jungle out there.

I have a strict rule: "Never read reviews."
I broke that rule because someone very kindly wrote a review of 1 of my books.
While I was there, I noticed a 1 star review for RUFUS. "No plot", said the review.
RUFUS is a bunch of stories written by a dog!
No plot!
