That’s a relief, I’d hate to give them up. 😋

I agree with you about the lady from Hobart, after all they haven’t found his body. I followed her trial and was surprised when the jury found her guilty. I have always found the death penalty abhorrent, but with so many ghastly crimes happening I’m beginning to change my mind. We have way too...

In Tasmania the original land grants had the boundary in the middle of the river, so the property owners had the right to refuse entry. I don’t know if this right is valid today, but I remember last year in a Hobart suburb, council, I think, wanted to construct a path along the edge of the...

I don’t usually watch this show but my son did, so I’m sure he’ll be disappointed.

Not for me, it’s just ugly. Bet it’s horrible to drink out of. I’m definitely a Le Creuset mug person.

We have a Financial planner looking after us, so this is his problem.
