So I arrived at the house today to find a couple of gas workers removing my gas line.
Which, ok, I do want that. But!! I didn't book it in.
In fact, I called CovAU and to ask about the price, but they couldn't give me a price in advance, and their estimate was 2-4x more than the government rate information, so I explicitly told them not to book. And followed it up with an email saying the same, which they replied to in confirmation.
This Azalea is looking the best in years. The leaves are a healthy, rich green colour. Previously they had a paler mottled appearance. It is autumn, yet it has a couple of flowers. I am not a fan of the frilly, pink flowers of some varieties but I like these flowers.
This plant was given to me by my mother. I receive her excess and unwanted plants. She enjoys buying plants and I enjoy receiving her rejects - a good arrangement. #Melbourne#GardeningAU
@Susan60 I have not done anything to deal with any pests or diseases which is why I am so surprised it has got rid of whatever pest that was causing the leaves to go pale and mottled.
Want to be an AFL media personality? It's easy — just follow the four-step Kane Cornes plan.
Look up which teams that lost on the weekend.
For each of the teams, come up with a reason why either:
a) It's the players' fault. They're too lazy. Don't train hard enough. Don't put in enough effort!
b) It's the players' fault. They're not skilled enough!
c) It's the coach's fault. Bad tactics. Bad strategy. He's allowing those players to be lazy!
d) It's the recruiter's fault. They picked/traded for the wrong players!
Get your producers to find a passage of play, interview, or press conference you can say backs up your claim.
Go on TV or radio and say what you think confidently, as if you're really pissed off about it.
Yeah, the older Richmond players didn't show enough effort. You really don't care — you used to play for Port Adelaide after all.
But you pretend you do on TV and the radio, because it makes great content.
@ajsadauskas@afl the worst part about Cornes isn’t his hatred of the Tigers, or his irrational vendettas against certain players, or even that he’s basically just a clickbait machine. It’s that he’s still an All Australian selector FFS!
Stuck on a westbound Collins Street tram near Parliament, something seems to have happened up ahead; can hear the odd siren. Eastbound trains are running OK though. Wonder what the issue is? #melbourne
I was being silly with an Australian Crawl reference. Reckless. :-) I guess the song was set in Sydney so Melbourne Trams aren't quite the Manly Ferry.
Eating lunch in the sun outside Docklands Library. This is much nicer weather than we normally get in late May - usually it's icily cold all day by now.
