Every time I watch cricket I remember what TV with ads is like.
And I am grateful that I don't watch it.

Nice opening lines from Penny Wong in her interview on #insiders , bewailing the degradation of the Liberal Party as a serious political party in Australia, into a farce.

Sometimes it's an effort to get out of bed and trudge up my 30° inclined hill for my 6.75km walk, but it's always better when I do. Done my walk this morning in the cool sunshine. Feel great.

Tonight I'm having a night off. I still went for my walk. But after the last few rather stressful weeks I really need a night off.

His humiliation is complete? Really? Had he faced a court and been convicted of anything? https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-10-31/prince-andrew-loses-titles-royal-lodge-and-dignity/105955874?utm_source=abc_news_app&utm_medium=content_shared&utm_campaign=abc_news_app&utm_content=other
Stripped of his titles and his home, Prince Andrew's humiliation is complete
Once considered the darling of the royal family and the "favourite" son of Queen Elizabeth II, the King's brother will now be known only as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor. It's a humiliation for the history books.

I've been wandering around the house, tidying up and getting things ready for tomorrow and I couldn't work out what seemed wrong. Then I realised I didn't have TAFE or mentoring tonight. I mean technically I do have TAFE. And work. But not formal classes. So it feels strange.
