Agree it was good. But the word that came to me was melancholy.

Thanks I’ll give it a try. Department Q is worth watching. Netflix’s.

Thanks Kevin, I loved to listen to your Dad’s dulcet tones on cult of hockey here in Newcastle, Australia. I will be tuning in to the service so wish your family all the best for day.

I’m watching these as well. Here’s a few highly rated shows worth a look:
The Last of Us (intense)
Detectorists (fun)
Somebody Somewhere (emotional)
1883 (historical)

I think that crisis is primarily driven by the media. In the fullness of time markets provide stability in unstable times. As long as governments don’t interfere to a level that forces instability.

Strange why Australia’s delinquency rates are half of US rates given the burden posed by the debt servicing obligations. Can only assume Aussie lending requirements are more stringent than US.
Reality is also that a lot of Aussie’s now have had a big lift in their net worth from house asset values.
