You know Aussies and Americans have very different ways of saying things. Constantly am I confronted with a word I'd have no way of knowing in which context you are using it in......like Plugger. Lol

Next someone will be selling eco friendly leaves you can use and throw outside when you're done :). They clean you and can be used as fertilizer, good for the garden.

ohhhh so many many noises...except my own loud music haha. Hate people coughing and sneezing these day- not sure why??? Hate hearing my dog swallowing noisily in the night, or noisily licking nethers eww. Hate hate noisy boy racers revving down our street late at night and doing wheelies at the roundabouts. Though i would probably be one of them if i was young and a lad. And there's more...HATE the sounds of those Gunshot firecrackers that people let off..that freak us and our animals out. Hubby hates the sound of his neighbour howling..yes howling. And the guy who power saws bits of wood for hours in the nearby workshop. He turned up on a sunday once to cut wood- until a certain man in tank chair zoomed over and gesticulated at him to F.O.

I was wondering where you went :) I also like metal, so found this metal cover....Rocio, Sweet Dreams: https://youtu.be/78Mh3hIh0I8?si=hB-BbTB3C1Lh4LTV

The problem is you americans are under the delusion that you think your country is the greatest thing on this planet when in fact most of the world generally dislikes your country and what it stands for and finds most of you very irritating and quite honestly I couldnt give a rats arse if your country dissolves into anarchy

It depends on things such as, are you working, do you have children under 18, how old are you? It never seems to be a realization that of those who do these surveys, many are at home due to health or age and therefore we can't answer the questions asked.

Oooops! Grandpa may be getting over the hill there! I've heard of MAP (minor attracted person), but it seemed too filthy for my frame of mind to read any further.

Maybe he was trying to print in colour but it only prints black \ud83e\udd23. How many eggs have you consumed thus far Mary?

\u2026 there were absolutely no red surveys left, at all. What is a person supposed to do now? Perhaps I\u2019ll have a cup of tea, a BEX and a good lay down\u2026.. Now the bloody phone is ringing AND there\u2019s someone at the door. Oh! It\u2019s\u2026\u2026

This is a common theme throughout history: elderly people think that youths are wayward, youths think that the elderly are grumpy, every generation seems to be worse than the last. But in the grand scheme of things youths are just being youths and act according to their influence and cultural norms. Here's some good quotes from a few old timers: Socrates: "Children; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. They no longer rise when elders enter the room, they contradict their parents and tyrannize their teachers. Children are now tyrants.\u201d Plato: " No man should bring children into the world who is unwilling to persevere to the end in their nature and education " So in a nutshell, youths are just behaving as they always have. But yes child upbringing is the most important for determining a child's character later in life so if you want good kids then you need to be the best role model for them and the best educator that you can be.

Scribe ! sorry A , cover thine ears it is new age stuff .. https://youtu.be/OkgMt9BVsvQ (easy beats tho :) )

Funerals are for the living, not the dead. I came into the world with no fanfare, and intend to leave the same way. The only winners out of funerals are undertakers, florists, printers, vicars and caterers. But if somebody wants to, as the ashes go over the side, play The Streets of London. on a cheap trannie /tape recorder will do.

does shaky pudding on top of a laptop on a desk constitute falling in love online?,, if so,, yes, hi Liane, yes it is i, the wandering vagabond on return,, but i been looking around, and it seems that you and Mary have been passing out mushrooms to all the participants in our club,, strange shyt going on, people's names changing, A has the covid, Brad has changed his name folks disappearing, well i did that twice, once rewardia's fault ,and the 2nd time was my fault,, so lemme know if i fell in love online or not, laptop was on, had internet connectin

Alison Holst recipe makes the best citrus slice - loved by all. It's my mums book so don't have name of it. Go to Mac n cheese is from Brian Lagerstrom. It's lighter than the traditional rue recipes and is very quick to prepare - YouTube 10 min Mac n cheese Brian Lagerstrom. Tahini choc chip cookies from David Lebovits - best cookies I've ever made, such a good recipe. His lemon cake is a crowd pleaser too. Highly recommend any of his recipes.

Well, Nancy, whatever is hittin you hard right now, I'm very sorry you are going through such turmoil. I'm Christian too and the only place real peace and coping comes from is our Father in Heaven and His Son, Jesus Christ. Christ knows your heart and situation because He knows you intimately and there is a reason behind what you're going through. You've got to keep praying and putting one foot in front of the other and cry and let your pain out that way if it helps. I'm going through incredibly tough times too, so I can empathize with you and feeling like you have nowhere to turn and that your burdens are too heavy. My husband is young and term ill. He's dying before my eyes, my sweet loving husband who is a wonderful man, which is hard to find these days... but that's beside the point. I just can't stand the thought of losing him soon and the wrenching my heart will go through. I have a severe debilitating disability myself and it's difficult to care for him when I'm having such a hard time. But it is a privilege to care for him and have the little time I do have left. Just remember that you are not alone. There are people in your life that I know must love and care about you immensely and don't want to see you suffer. Try to put good things, (books, movies, positive talk) into your head so you are feeding your soul positivity and not negativity. Stay close to your God. He's there, I know He is. I wish there was a magical answer to going through tough times, but really there isn't. I only know what I try to do to help myself through mine. I find that focusing on other people and doing acts of service for others always helps me to feel better and focus on others who are hurting too. I will remember your name and what you've written here and include you in my daily quiet time that I take to talk to my Heavenly Father. I don't know you, except what you wrote, but I assure you, your Heavenly Father sure does. I am your sister in life. Please know you are loved. Peace and clarity be yours.

Are you having a day off? there was a bit of drama on the bongo page ...I didn't have anything to do with it...well not directly...but it was a lot of fun....and I got told off for joining in...as you can imagine..I am deeply shocked....what me?

I love watching The Chase Australia and enjoy testing my own knowledge to the questions presented and am estatic if the contestants win their overall game.

Great topic Liane :) Great laff at the 7 teeth. Just slippin' this song in as i used to make words up for bits i couldn't quite get.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BciS5krYL80 and Rains in Africa by Toto- i used to ad lib that one quite a bit. Hubby has some trippy speakers these days and i can pick up lyrics i used to never know :)

There are safety issues too in the event of crash...I was told that the power supply needs to be disabled before trapped people can be cut out of electric vehicles...and I haven't forgotten the "smart" Tesla whose door failed to open when it hit a tree....everyone present had to watch the poor Doctor inside burn to death....my petrol driven car uses less fuel than a hybrid...might be worth waiting for a hydrogen powered car?...Hyundai already make them....or cold fusion? ...GREAT SCOTT!!!

What pisses me off is when I finish the survey and I am not given my due points. Then get the excuse of not have finished the survey which is not true. I feel like giving up rewardia.

"Jest plain old inter sex jealousy". If you look back in history and we had been given the chance we might have helped with some of the messes men have made in the troubles and wars of yesteryear!

I quite often get \u2018oops! It\u2019s not you, it\u2019s us\u2019 and almost always at the end of the survey\ud83d\ude16. Time wasted and points lost. And, they have our information. High scoring surveys too, I might add!

In a good month I might get around $90 which is around $3 a day. Looks like the person was trying to get people to sign up with his link so he could earn referral points. That would be why he removed it because Rewardia would be able to track who it was by the referral link.

Covid-19 is here to stay just like the flu and pnumonia. There will always be NEW variants of the Covid-19 virus, some more deadlier and some less deadly. In Australia we are told that Omicron is less deadly, however over in the UK and USA some people have died from Omicron; but we must keep in mind there is only a small percentage of people vaccinated within those countries. In Australia, in NSW for several weeks they were averaging around 200 to 350 new Covid cases each 24 hour period, suddenly they are getting over 2000 a day, then the day before yesterday they had over 3000 then yesterday close to 4000. The government is saying that by the end of January 2022 we could be averaging 200,000 a day Australia-wide ( worse than the UK and USA ). With International borders now open, all state borders now open ( except West Australia ) the Omicron is without no doubt going to spread across Australia like wild fire especially now that NSW and Victoria are not enforcing mask wearing and social distancing and NSW not enforcing use of QR codes and these states refusing to go back into lockdown to get it under control because Scott Morrison and Josh Frydenberg are more concerned about the economy. Covid-19 is a virus that continuously changes it's DNA each time it transmits to each person and continues to grow stronger and more contagious. As it changes each time it transmits from person to person, this means that countries that have higher numbers of infections each day are creating NEW strains of the Covid-19 virus. Every country needs to minimise the spread to minimise or end the risks of new strains being created. IF this is not done soon then the Covid-19 virus will become so strong that disinfectent and vaccines will NOT protect us and within 20 years the Covid-19 virus will make the human race extinct. Although the 3rd vaccine booster shot is only providing 30% protection against Omicron, we ALL need to be fully vaccinated to give us at least some protection because Governments around the world are no longer taking steps to control or contain the virus because they are now all more concerned with the economy

That's very kind of you Mary thinking of those affected by the cyclone here in NZ luckily I live in the South Island where we were perfectly fine but it sure has brought back vivid memories of our own natural disaster here in Christchurch years ago so the entire NZ is feeling for those in the North :(

RIGHT!! I have a bow and arrow It's not a cupid's bow... Heard rustling in my local woods Of another bear who thought he could?? He sure has some clout sashaying about . Is he friend is he foe? Does he really not know One Bear rules these woods And as an archer she's Good ! So posting here the deed Seeking this rogue bear's identity ... Been frequenting the Bingo Hall While wearing no pants at all Scratching up around the trees Naming himself Mr Humphrey B.!!

Just wasted my time on LI-Q7MC5Y worth 1350 points. I spent 30 minutes on it and I was right at 96% of the survey (the progress meter was in full display), and then it told me I was screened out. No point contacting Support as they are useless. They will just write to tell you that yes they have checked with the survey company and you do not qualify. Why let me go through the whole survey then?

Oui oui!! Said with great gusto as it's always unexpected. Have completed and received tasty points for 2 this very week. "Celebration Time Come on!".

Yesterday's 30 point bonus for playing Drop and Merge was a rip off. I'm 71 and need a hip replacement, but even I don't have over three hours to spend trying to get an extra 30 points. At one stage I gained 1168 points ( not that far off the leader board and it gave me 2 points! This is just plain ridiculous and I have written and told them so - especially as I stuck it out until I had 31 points and they didn't credit me with the bonus today! First time I've commented on here but that is just plain ridiculous. Like recently when they offered 300 points if you gained 1000 points on Blue surveys in a 36m hour period and there were NONE.

"I get knocked down...but I get up again...you're never going to keep me down!...I get knocked down...." if I'm feeling down that is the one to play at full volume.. ..and "strange days indeed"...by John Lennon

Hi Mary. I would like to confirm that these results above 1000s lines are real. It is not an in-game time cheating or sort of Some members are really love this game and play for two, three or even four hours. They are keeping this game in the separate tab in browser, so can take a pause, drink coffee etc. after that get back to the game

Never heard of it. Sounds hilarious. We used to get hit with a wooden spoon as kids,can't imagine doing it to myself on purpose.but each to their own

Thanksgiving is an American tradition. Its not celebrated in any other western countries that I know of.

We have private rooms for private messaging via Google.... people's pictures can be put up via their avatars and now added to things like their recipes and discussions or polls . These can either be personal photographs or taken from another social media source like pinterest or facebook or instagram ..all of which constitutes copying and pasting / sharing posts / uploading from one social media site to another ! We can like or comment on eachother's forum posts in the chats otherwise known as a thread ... Keeping safe online here is still very much warranted as are the rules for using other social media sites. Yes we have limitations here ,but there is live chat in the bingo room and the ability to share video clips from media sites along with putting up with a multitude of annoying advertising , people's mad misinformation and some trolls even .. yep I would most definitely call this a social media website ;)

Did a survey the other day took me about an hr and a half, kept thinking im gunna get booted out any min now....but no, got to the end 4684pts!!! never ever had that high pts before....

The two biggest money makers in a cafe are coffee and the soup of the day...no-one seems to care that they both cost very little make...you wanting to use several different milks would make the Barrista's job much more difficult..in a really busy cafe it would be a nightmare....I would hate to be doing that job now....it was a breeze when I did it....I enjoyed it..nobody needed all this crap in 1980...(why is that?) what happened to humans in the meantime to need all this extra stuff?...and who is supposed to pay for the extra work..stock and storage?...its not just the purchase price my friend...you are missing the point..it makes everything a lot more difficult... and more expensive

..... and I have tried and tried to get rid of their stupid invasive adverts popping up ALL the time on and over my screen trying to flog off their low cost junk to me. The more they do it the less likely I am ever going to spend 1 cent with them. The old story and saying is - You get what you pay for.

We have been able to do this with photos (without AI) for over 30 years...anybody who is skilled can do this in Photoshop...so what has changed recently?....little girls now spend hours photographing themselves.. pouting and vamping it up...with their new phones and post them all over the internet...and little boys have easy access to to these..and pornography....and also now have software that makes attaching heads to bodies so easy that every moron can do this to a reasonable level....what's changed?...technology...that's all...if you don't want your head attached to a naked body stop posting it everywhere... in multiple views. different lighting and angles.. online....easy to use.....you know it can happen...just wake up and pay attention....if they made the software illegal it would stop immediately...

I was all in a flurry to see what the buzz was about these new Azure surveys .. only to have my bubble burst. Blue .they are just ordinary ol blue, reinvented yet not one is 1000pts ,nor do they roll into a next one .. bah humbug I say !

Wow ,nothing so scary as that . The sleeping Arabs at Tehran airport with their turbans were a bit of a shock as an 11yr old from down under I would say ,, apart from that I was suprised in Fiji at having to say Bula ( hello) to everyone basically from the airport security ,cleaners ,police in their long skirts ... everyone! At first I was getting exhausted from it a bit . And they will eyeball you coming your way too so you don't miss the opportunity. Kids waving out of the buses with no windows iin them while you're driving next to them "Bula !" ,, When I got back here I missed it, I walked past someone in my own street ,they just looked down kept walking by .. usual city behaviours ..

No! Too much government control there. I don't trust any government, no matter where they are on the political spectrum, not to abuse power if they control everything. Throw a switch, and you can't buy groceries. Your BMI is too high so you cost the government too much in health care. No birthday cake for you! When another government hacks in, you are stuck. And let's not forget the Greek government a few years (5?) back. 10% off the top of people's accounts to help with the bail-out. No thanks, I'll want cash to pay for things when the network is down.

Well we Aussies don't like being told what's good for us especially re changes to our laws. After all in my whole life only 1 referendum got passed as ayes vote. Here we go again and I think it will be NO!

I love the kings English. Have you read the instructions on how to put something together from China.Oh my God. I see so many grammatical errors. Some of the sentences don't even make sense. Even with spell checker and grammar correction on Word, they still get it wrong. English is a beautiful language. God forgive those who trespass against us and deliver them from their grammatical errors. Go Matildas

Eggs from chickens reared in back gardens in the inner city can have up to 30 times more lead in them than that from country reared chickens

In Gosford NSW...a doctor who was probably late for work at the surgery parked in a disabled car space....there is wonderful security camera footage of a man in a wheelchair very carefully removing all the air from all his tyres...absolute magic....there should be MASSIVE fines for this behaviour....

Wonder Woman lol but I also loved watching The incredible hulk,The six million dollar man,Bionic woman,Bewitched,The love boat,Tom and Jerry,Lost in space,I dream of Jeanie,Mork and Mindy,Charlies Angels,The brady bunch,Little house on the prairie and the Waltons and Chips lol

YES! But without "the Royals INC." what else would we talk about? How on earth would the print industry survive? Perhaps, we could talk about The Bay City Rollers? Anyone remember them?

mmm great topic..where do i start haha. If i have the shakes from a bit of low blood sugar- because i've actually used some physical energy which my lazy body not used to- i have to snaffle a peanut butter and honey sammie. If i'm just feeling piggy then chip sammie, cake cake or cake, and of course choc. I used to wolf down hot chips but lately i can't do that without suffering later. And everything with a cup o tea n sugar.

Roll up and put a lotto ticket in each Christmas cracker and don't tell anybody you have done it prior to Xmas lunch/dinner. There then will be a few surprised faces when at the table the crackers are all 'banged off' and then opened to get their hat and small toy AND surprise , surprise a lotto ticket.

We always had family over so it was more to do with what they brought over. Rotten corn, crayfish, hangi, paua (abalone), kina (sea urchin) and wild pig. I was scared of Julia Child and her cleaver, but loved Hudson & Hall and Graham Kerr.

Being the head honcho in NSW is hard,your in no way going to be able to keep everyone happy,by trying to keep some happy she has plunged that state into being a bit of a basket case,the lockdowns should have been hard and fast first up,now your going to be in the doldrums there for donkeys,being a true leader she would have not been to bothered what people thought and done the right thing by the people even if it had gotten her kicked out at the next election

Fortunately I have know idea what you are talking about, and relish they opportunity to stay ignorant.

I would start looking at a move. Not to the city but somewhere that has more access to shops and facilities. We all get older and need easier lifestyles. Closer to a city would be a bonus.

Wouldn't mind owning a Smart House - as long as it is smart enough to pay the rising cost of renting and the rising cost of utilities :-))!

share your experiences with the nurses . they have lots of good down to earth tips. Run a day by day diary and give it to the oncologist at each regular consultation, you will get many and varied side effects. Some of these could influence a variation in the chemo. Don't try to eat big meals once your taste goes away. It does no harm to have a google look at what is out there. I should have said I've been there. Lung and bowel cancer, and 6 months of chemo.

i watched a guy wrap up a nasty cut with duct tape, not sure what the hospital thought but it did stop the bleeding... I have used it for flies and bugs and have several pieces hanging around the shed, also used it to remove splinters, pet hair, and lint from clothes and have often used it as a belt to keep my pants up is also a great insulator,

The older I get , I find after bending down to get something it's impossible to do silently .. and no NOT what you are thinking! It's because your diaphragm muscles become weaker and your stomach gets pushed up closer to it so oldies often make a grunt when they do such activities !

And there is the lesson to learn from. Climate change is a natural process of our earth. Climate crisis is a manufactured illusion spread by unelected leaders of global organizations who do not have our best interests at heart. These people jump on individual jets to fly to conferences so they can find more ways of controlling what we can and can't do.

Qualification question today .. have you travelled by car to Mars in the past week ? Umm no,, Great! You have qualified for the survey . Now baking and listening to some music whether it's a streaming service such as YouTube or the common radio ( transistor) can be quite therapeutic I find, however the survey probably went on to interview the lucky applicants who were successful on a completely unrelated topic such as bladder leakage !! How many dribbles ? A few drops or more? How often .. oh that's all the questions we have for you today !

Thankfully, the ads offering sex from ladies around the globe have finally stopped. It got too much for me as I'm a hetero female!

Australia is a continent which is part of the region of Oceania. It is the only country in Oceania that has the land mass to be a continent. There are only 7 continent in the world and Australia is one of them, although other country seem to call it the continent of Australia/Oceania, must be some new age thing.

There are professionals who train for between 2 and 3 years whose sole purpose on graduation is to design things like surveys polls and forms that need to be filled out....nobody bloody uses them because it costs money...so all the forms polls and surveys are rubbish...the results are rubbish...and we end up with lots of other rubbish that no-one needs.... we are surrounded by idiots who want to save money...buildings and stadiums that collapse...that packet you cannot open..the tin opener that doesn't open anything..plastic door handles on cars...there is no reason for any of this...just employ people who understand what is needed and what is safe reasonable and intelligent....

I had shingles when I was about 10/11. If my memory serves me correctly, it\u2019s related to the Measles Mob.

At a younger age, while I was still finding my feet - a glass bender. Yep, that was the job title. Worked nights in front of a very large and very hot rotating furnace kiln. We had long poles and we reached into the flames and placed flat sheets of glass onto the molded seats, they went around inside the kiln and then rotated back into view, perfectly melted, molded and shaped. We then took them out and placed them to cool off. It was quite complicated as there were 25 sheets of glass inside at any time. The molding seats came out with the glass and new seats had to be placed in and then new glass sheets had to be put onto them.5-man crew all working in harmony. If one man missed his task, then it would all stop. On a good night we would shape 2000 glass molded ceiling lights.

Not that I remember Walter, nothing awful or scary, for which I am grateful and I treated our young kids the same way = no not perfect but no mind games or scary lies. :)

Fully agree with you - the thing that really bugs me is that sometimes you do a survey, complete all the the questions so that they have all your information then the site kicks you out and the survey says "closed by user" zero points awarded

Have not tried the vapes. I use the 'under the counter' tobacco. All the tobacconists sell it. It's hit n miss for quality. Usually around $40 for 100gms which will last me a week. OZ govt tax makes 'brand' tobacco out of the question. And, as soon as I exit the store, the bums are lined up, give us a smoke, got a smoke, got spare $2. It's **** off from me everytime.

At my old home address I got fed up with huge amounts of weeds growing in the raised garden beds so I decided to cover them with weed mats, however under the weed mats I placed flattened cardboard boxes and a year later the weeds began growing back; so YES things do grow on them. However when I looked there was no cardboard boxes thee meaning they had ALL broken down and turned to soil

Audra Mae and the forest rangers; forever young ' let it be me Ray La Montagne things we handed down Marc Cohn all great Sunday songs all regulars on my playlist in fact not sure if you have a spotify account but if you do look up pops top 100 covers there is hours of great tunes there it will keep your sunday laze easily

Why do most of the advertised lengths of surveys not reflect any accuracy. I have seen a 3 minute survey being 35 minutes when opened. Or some that say 160 minutes but end up being 15 minutes.

I too have noticed how many organisations are now asking me to turn on my webcam. I do not allow it especially as I was told by an IT specialist that even if you do not have it switched on you can still be seen by others. That scared the bejesus out of me.

Call 90 Day Fiancé!!!

I wondered that too. I would also like to know why so many real words come up as 'unknown word'. I'd love to know which dictionary they have used.

I did not think advertising your business was allowed on sites like this and nor are referrals to other sites. Is this correct or incorrect?

I have some bottles of dehydrated water.....going cheap...$20 a bottle. Directions read....just add water...

Electric vehicles are no better for the environment than normal petrol / diesel cars. In some ways electric vehicles are actually worse. Massive amounts of money is being wasted on the idea. \ud83d\ude41 Added to the problems are all the gadgets and gizmos (ebikes, escooters, mobile phones, tablets, "smart" this, AI that) which all need constant recharging, plus the enormous amounts of electricity to run the servers, as well as the materials need to make all those batteries. If you really want an enviromentally-friendly transport option, we should be using Flintstones-style vehicles ... stick your feet through the floor and run along the ground. \ud83d\ude09

You're not obligated to save a seat for her. Tell her you don't feel comfortable doing that since there's no assigned seating.

I am fascinated by the fact that you never see salmon marketed as "Pacific salmon" You always see "Atlantic salmon" sold but Pacific salmon is better. In general, wild-caught Pacific salmon is often considered healthier than Atlantic salmon, mainly due to its lower fat content, better fatty acid profile, and lower risk of contaminants.

I think we all get wildly different ads....I've never seen the one you are talking about...and you have probably never seen my boring ads either!

I agree. Surely your demographic, age and sex would be enough. More than that and I assume that I am being screened out because my opinions conflict with the answers THEY want,which defeats the purpose of quantities social research and not a true indication of public opinion. Just saying...and i always give true,concise answers so shouldn't be screened out for making silly remarks that aren't relevant to topic.

because it makes life realistic, how many of you folks that are complaining about it swear/curse yourself in life, there is an off button

This is a problem that a lot of people have and I'm glad you brought it up.....use a fine needle to release any pressure in the packaging ...then gently remove the top of the packaging with a sharp scalpel....leaving the base and sides...then apply several layers of spray glue (hairspray can be used) and allow it to fully dry before counting..I find that usually works...(and of course when you have finished counting..you can spray them all over with glue and throw them at the walls...family members..and/or people you don't like..) ..if you usually throw them on the floor and just jump on them...give them a light dusting in flour first or they will stick to you feet....

fast photo shop, signwriters with paint brushes, radio operators at sea, photolithographers, real bank managers, typists, if you'd asked who gets paid to do nothing, that list would have been way longer.

A post on our Neighbourly website: I was on a diabetes information website the other day. It asked me if I would accept cookies. Is that a trick question?

That\u2019s daft, the minimum wage is far too much. Pay them the pension and see how they like it\u2026..lol

Some of the topics do seem rather silly, but it doesn't bother me at all. We can pay them back by making silly comments.

Close to you (the Carpenters), November Rain (Gunners), Don't cry at my grave (I am not there) - The Prayer, (Lizzie West), Evergreen (Barbara Streisand), Skye Falls Down ( Ocean Lab) and not sure yet which one, but something by Metallica.

and the biggest racist of all are Christians! Long ago they decided that Jesus was a White, Blonde, Blue-eyed adonis because that is how the Christian Churches depicted him when the Truth is he would have had a Brown skin, possibly a dark tan due to his job as a Carpenter, Black hair and those Beautiful dark, brooding Brown eyes so many, if not all, of those natives of that part of the world have. I do sometimes wonder if those who make so much noise, complain so much about Racism are not more Racist than those they accuse of being Racist thereby deliberately creating division where no division actually exists.

In a pub, the barman says to Paddy, “Your glass is empty, fancy another one?” Paddy looks at him incredulously and says, “Why would I be needing two empty feckin’ glasses?”

While armament production is such a prominent industry there will always be a need to have war to use the products.

As someone who was born at 11:20PM, i have always said i only have a 40minute birthday. That's what my Mum always told me from as young as i can remember, and it's still what i believe today. My hubby and friends try and convince me the entire day is my birthday, but it is still hard to believe when i was told otherwise my entire life.

you should also ask if they should stop the slaughter of the people in yemen by the saudis,personally i think theres a lot more going on than ehat the media tells you,dont get me wrong,i dont think russia should have invaded but theres always more to the story,the first rulke of war is to get the propaganda machine cranked up. who here now knows that going into Iraq on the false stories of WMD was wrong,killing thousands of Afghanis was wrong,bombing weddings and the like,Look at how libya is now after the wests regime change,what makes you think the west is right about things this time,whats different to make you believe they are telling the truth this time?

The thing that bothers ME most about lockdowns is the proliferation of dimwits that think it doesn't apply to them!

In early 2020, the government added salt to the wound of pensioners by giving the unemployed people the "Pandemic Supplement" which doubled the dole payments to $1100 a fortnight for several months, thus being MORE than the average pensioner; AND the government DID NOT give pensioners any "Pandemic Supplement" payments. Although that salt in the wound made the wound sting, in late 2020, when pensioners were due for another pay rise, the government opened that wound, poured more salt onto it, then rubbed that salt into the wound by REFUSING to give pensioners that payment increase which they were entitled to receive. Although that additional salt rubbed into the pensioners wound had infected the wound, the government decided that they have NOT caused enough harm to the pensioners and decided to add even more salt to the infected wound by adding insult by announcing in March 2021 that single pensioners will receive a payment increase of $8-40 a fortnight ( $4-20 a week )....which barely buys a cup of coffee.

Look Jose, a deep breath sounds nice and all, but my morning routine is more like yelling at the TV because the referee was clearly blind. If I don\u2019t start the day with a Scotch and an argument over a football highlight from 1984, am I even properly awake?
