Blog Day 39: Friday 01 May 2020

Mayday today, lets raise the red banner, workers of the world unite, the peasants are revolting and the working class can kiss my...…..!

Just returned from my walk, not many people around today, not on account of the corona virus but on account of the weather, very cold and wet.

Coldest day in May for either 50 years or forever, depending on who you listen to.  Wonder where the global warming activists have got to.  Maybe huddling around their...…… hmmm, what would they huddle around?  They can't huddle around a fire cause that would require trees to be cut down and that's a no no; they can't huddle around a gas heater because the labor government and the greenies have banned exploration for natural gas in Victoria so we have nearly run out of the stuff; cant huddle around an electric heater, too overcast for solar power, too windy for wind power (why do they turn the wind turbines off when it gets windy?) lucky we still have some coal powered generators to carry the load but would a global warming activist use coal generated power, I would hope not.  Maybe our assistant state medical officer has an opinion on this that she can tweet about.

I guarantee if our assistant state medical officer gets the sack she will be on the ABC or The Project the next day. The world of fellow travellers.

Snow in the Alps, after a disappointing year last year it would be a shame if our snowfields received a decent dump of snow but nobody could go there and use it, particularly as Melbourne supporters probably won't have any footy to go to.

That's enough for today, catch yo all tomorrow.

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...
