What a wonderful couple George and Mildred were. I loved them in Man About the House, and then in George and Mildred. These were the days of British comedy at its best. No foul language and laughs galore.

And of course the French, under the command of La Perouse, arrived just three weeks after the English. If those who are ignorant of of the facts of the English colonisation - and I don't mean that in a nasty way - read contemporaneous documents written by Phillip, his officers and many of...

One can only assume that she doesn't know what 'pleading the fifth' means. It means refusing to answer on the grounds that you might incriminate yourself. I thought I was doing plenty of answering, but what would I know? Apparently, I'm mentally ill and in need of medication, so I can't be...

I'm still trying to figure out what Jacinta being guest speaker at an ACC conference has to do with Australia Day. 😂😂

Oh my God, you're rambling now. If it's okay with you, I'll go along with Bess who gave me a big hug and said, 'Sister in law.' She was in my home at the time. When did the missionary era come into the current discussion? Who introduced the topic of the 'Church and State' today? I really must...

I'm desolated. How can I sleep tonight?! Look, I'm sorry, but I see the name 'Knell', and I can't help but wonder if he/she has the first name 'Death'. As he/she is so fond of labelling me, I think I'll call him/her 'Dymo'. Thank you for your welcome. I'm happy to join the happy, positive people.

I stand by my opinions which I have, as you have yourself said, a right to do. They are based on personal experience, to which you have laid no claim. One of the things that makes America an angry country, is the insistence on labelling everyone politically. It's counterproductive and totally...

I do agree. But wouldn't you say multiculturalism is negative? It was thought to be great, and it was until cultures arrived who have no intention of assimilating.

When the truth is, they fulfil none of the criteria necessary for nationhood.

You know absolutely nothing about me so I fail to see how you consider yourself qualified to assess my character. Let me set you straight: the reason I wrote about the pygmy peoples was in reply to the previous comment saying that the Aborigines were the colonisers of Australia. They were...

The history of almost every country in the world is one of conquest and colonisation. The current Aborigines did not discover Australia. When they arrived here, they found Australia was populated by a race of pygmy people. They were completely eradicated by those we now call Aborigines...

The best I've seen is an alleged conversation on Fox News between Paul Murray and Mark Latham. Mark Latham had this wonderful investment plan that he wanted to share with the world. Now, at the time, and this may still be the case, Mark Latham was banned from Fox News, so I knew it was a scam...

It seems to me that the entire Australian advertising industry needs a shake-up. I know it's off topic, but is anyone else being bombarded with ads for a room air conditioner invented by 'a clever university student' from Melbourne? Apparently, the university he attended was too poor to afford...

Speaking of Aussie resilience and nonchalance, I have a story. When the Newcastle earthquake struck, our neighbours were concerned about the husband's grandmother who was well into her 90s and still living alone in her own home. The family piled into the car and made their way to her home in...

Look, it's a fact that people become attracted to someone in the first instance by their appearance. I sometimes watch a YouTube programme called 'Scamfish'. It's an American programme that specialises in investigating international romance scams. Most of the people who appear on the show are...

People can see how this can be misused. I see that possibility quite clearly, but considering the state the world's in, I reluctantly agree with the use of facial recognition technology. It seems to me to be the lesser of two evils and I believe that's what many people think.

Dear god! When we were kids, the adults would say, 'Stop whinging and put some wet sand on it.' Why are people so soft these days?!

Speaking of the IPCC, in 2017, the woman in charge, whose name escapes me, said on the record, that the climate change agenda has nothing to do with the environment. She said it's about the necessity of controlling energy worldwide, hidden behind the touchy feely announcement that third world...

Don't bother. I've studied both sides of the debate in depth over the last ten years. I was a climate change believer until I decided to leave the bubble and do something scary: study the other side. What I discovered was the lengths the WEF, the UN and their lackeys the mainstream media will...

And I'd bet my house that you didn't do it on a skiing holiday in Switzerland. 😂😂
