Leonard Cohen - apparently changed the verses at times. Loved him, saw him 3 times on his visits to Australia.

Glad I'm not the only one! I get up and walk out, or turn the volume down, change channels ... Anything! Really really don't want to hear this disaster. Feel as though I'm playing ostrich, but there's nothing I can do except hope somehow it ends before too much damage is done. Poor Ukraine 😢

omg. Haven't heard that for, well ..... decades! I was failing at school so music was the go-to. Loved it. 🎶

Watched an Aussie journo in the US interview a carpet importer.
Journo: You're voting for Trump?
Importer: Yes
Journo: There will be tariffs imposed
Importer: That's good, we need that
Journo: Your carpets will cost more.
Importer: .....
I wonder if he did still vote Trump

Yep and Yep. Fully agree!

Nor me! Try 'How to Bullet Plan', Rachel Wilkerson Miller (I borrowed from the library then bought a copy!). It's straightforward & humorous - helped a lot. I began with Carroll's layout but was frustrated cos it didn't suit; & I can't do fancy. Miller's take is, do it the way that suits you!

Had to think about that! 🤣

At 60 I had to quit my job because it involved some physical labour and I developed bursitis (but I also had 40 years of admin experience). After that I applied for many many jobs and the only responses I got were two employers wanting to know my age!! Wishing you all the best in the job search

Oh, thanks. Didn't think to Google it 😆

This is very puzzling. I find it astonishing that IF she did it, she thought she would get away with it? Because she's the only person at the meal who did not get sick, or did she & I missed it?

Thank you. They're only about an inch high at the moment, but I'm watching them closely. 🙂 I've never had it fresh, only the dried leaves from supermarket, so I'm looking forward to it.

I've planted basil, oregano and dill seeds and dill are the only ones to raise their heads above the soil - LOTS of them. Wondering what I'm going to do with it all - this looks good!

Oh, yes! Opposite me is a linear park (browning off now) & at the end on the main road are filtration ponds where there are masses of birds. The Wood ducks *walk* 😬 across this road, up my street & graze on people's gardens. Occasionally see them on my lawn. So peaceful watching them. (Stock photo)

Oh, that's beautiful!
