    Trump spoke like a hero saviour today saying only he could cure the ills of America and the "world". He'll stop the wars initiated by mostly narrisistic despots, who he has bromances with. Notwithstanding, Trump promises to bring peace to the world whilst threatening massive trade tarriffs on...

    It's a bit backwards that currently Thump gets away with accusing the Deep State Democrats for the sort of crap that he actually does himself unabashed. Electoral Fraud for instance, ,.. Will Trump call for another insurrection if he is defeated, again? As you said Craig, the eyes of the World...

    Coincidently, listening to the radio yesterday there was a discussion with a book author by the name of Kate Mosse about one of her semi-historical (real paper) books called Labyrinth. It sounded great so off I drove down to my local Library with digital card in wallet. Sadly they didn't have...

    The US erection for the new Potus happens Wodin's day. Trump is again blaring out his potty mouth. This time at Liz Cheney inferring she should be shot by multiple guns. Good Grief! That guy is a like a drunken psycho brat of seven. It's ok to call out such vile rhetoric, but not to stoop to...

    Sorry to hear of your property woes Thomas. I understand your dilemma and offer my sympathies. Aussies in strata units have their own annoying issues. EV's are lovely, costly and green yet we've not addressed the issue of how to charge them in blocks of flats. The usual red tape nonsense is...

    As for extreme right wing mysoginistic cultures the Taliban in Afghanistan gets the gong of the month for banning women praying out loud, even in private in the company of other women. Good grief; Dark age crap. ☹

    No worries about which war Thomas. As for the war in Ukraine, we've not been affected by that Invasion very much, yet. We're distant and many of our local markets like China are our big economic links. We're resource rich too. But the war in the Ukraine does worry me in terms of global peace...

    Hi Thomas, my uncle Eddy was shot down and killed on a Lancaster bombing raid to Duisberg Germany. Here's a part snap of a letter my old wrote Dad wrote to the RAF. As family archivist I have records going back 128 years. This is my Dad's handsome older brother, my uncle, who married a...

    Good point Thomas and well said. I often berate myself for not reading more of my own unread books too. With the 21st century addiction to screens I am happy to spend time working in my garden, with my animals, my house, cycling, riding mc, social things, mostly things with a physical aspect...

    ""Anything Miss Stout??, Glenys." "Well how about we discuss your future prospects over dinner tonight? I have to speak with another client, a Mr Groton who I thought was before you. Nevermind, show business, eh. How about 8pm at the Ambassador? My shout Miss Glenys Stout. I...

    Hi Thomas, That horrible war in Europe killed my Uncle who was the flight lieutenant and pilot of a Lancaster bomber. My father was a RN officer on boats and subs in the North Atlantic. He had his hip and spine seriosly damaged which left him totally crippled in his latter years. I had to...

    Tit for Tat missile diplomacy I reckon Craig. Old Steve said that to me and now I see it for myself. At least Nuclear or Oil infrastructure wasn't attacked, mainly military bases and facilities, assets, ... Iran is an interesting nation, now swinging gently to the left. They say they are not...

    How's this Thomas? Mrs Celeste Brighton having finished some computer work and calls for Mr Hitchcock paid only cursory attention to Mr Groton's wave on to Glenys. However, looking over her horn rimmed glasses, she saw Mr Groton with an annoyed look on his face whilst holding up a bank note to...

    Other possible characters to play include: Mr Dennis Groton the diddled old actor with the forged $50 note. Mrs Celeste Brighton, the canny Secretary to Mr Hitchcock. Or just walk through the door ... as whoever. 👽👾🤖👻🙀🙈🙉🙊

    Hi Thomas, I agree with Craig to have a crack. Maybe follow the evolving narrative to get a feel for this loose style of collaborative writing. 🙂

    Cigar puffing Mr Hitchcock said "Well Miss Glenys Stout, you've come to the right place if you want to get started in a few minor acting roles. I have a few irons in that fire. TV adverts too. You've got a nice face, what's your background? Can you sing, dance, training, .... ? My take is 18%...

    On an optimist note, I'm happy Cricket sanctions have been lifted on Aussie batsman David Warner. He did his time for his 'Sand paper gate' debacle. As did Smith whose form is now flaky. 🙁
