Blog Day 16: Wednesday 08 April 2020

Here is a funny story.  When I got my flu jab the other day the nurse put a bandaid over the little wound left by the needle.  When I rolled my sleeve down the material of my sleeve caught on a sticky part of the bandaid causing it to pull against the skin of my arm.  I instinctively reached up to release the material from the bandaid.  Both the nurse and the doctor looked at me with alarm as they thought that I was having a reaction to the injection, I assured them that it was only the bandaid catching on my shirt and they both breathed a sigh of relief and let me go on my way.

I picked up piece of corned silverside the other day so that might be dinner tonight with some vegies, and best of all there will be cold silverside for lunch tomorrow.  That's life in the fast lane in Bentleigh East.

I have just had a break, put some washing on, made a couple of phone calls to see if I could get my creative juices flowing, but I am afraid that there is nothing there, so this will have to do for today.

Stay sane and safe.

    How about another instalment of what's in the pantry Graeme?

    You were right - not much in the blog today. I guess I'll have to start arguing with you for inspiration...

      Maybe Andrew you have just accepted that I am correct and that there is nothing to argue about.

Blog day 3: Thursday 26 March 2020 Its funny to think that this time last year I was a couple of days away from heading off to Europe for 5 weeks, my how things have changed.  On that trip the only medical issues I needed to concern myself with was twisting an ankle on a cobblestone or recovering from a hangover, wouldn't want to be there now. I am wondering where the extinction rebellion people have got to, they seem to gone very quiet, maybe they are lining up in the Centrelink queues to take money from a government they despise from a society for which they have no respect. Haven't been for a walk today apart from up and down the driveway to collect the newspaper and check the letterbox.  I even excitedly opened the letter from the bank enclosing my credit card bill. Keeping in touch with people by email, SMS and phone, Leanne even suggested today that I join Facebook.  Maybe...….when hell freezes over! Catching up on my reading, and looking at inspiration...

Blog Day 522 - Sunday 05 Sept 2021 - Day 31 of Covid Lockdown V6.0 Extended   There was an interesting piece in The Australian newspaper yesterday with the headline "Catholic Health Plea to Protect Jab Objectors".  In part the article said, and I quote "Indeed Catholic teaching holds that no one should be forced to have a vaccine or be discriminated for exercising a conscientious objection". I would be interested which part of the bible discusses covid vaccinations or indeed vaccinations generally. I also like the story of the Sydney family who snuck into Victoria to visit family or friends and then snuck back into NSW using the backroads, naturally without any of the required permits or exemptions.  Everything was going hunky dory until the children of the family started boasting about their trip out of town to their mates at school.  SPRUNG! I gather by the name of the school that the family may have been of Irish extraction. In a rather rapid turnaround Victoria ...

Blog Day 589 - Tuesday 16 November 2021 - Day 18 of Covid Normal The Andrews government have back pedalled a little with their new draconian pandemic legislation.  The fine for individuals breaching the new pandemic rules has been reduced from $92,000 to $45,000 for individuals.  That is a relief, far better to be fined $45,000 than $92,000, I wonder if you could enter into a payment plan?   There is still a lot of opposition to the legislation from the most unlikely of bedfellows, including the Human Rights Commission, the Melbourne legal profession, the usual suspects of various flag waving ratbag groups and anti vaxxers as well as regular members of the public. A great day for Australia's giant leap into the space age.  Sometime over the weekend the first solid fuel, Australian designed rocket to be launched in the country since 1971 was launched somewhere in outback NSW.  This rocket in its mighty thrust into the outer reaches of the known universe reac...
