A political joke !
An airplane withfive passengers on board was about to crash; but there were only four parachutes … The first passenger said “I am President Obama, leader of the most powerful nation. The world needs me: it can’t afford for me to die.” So he took the first parachute and jumped out. The second passenger, Tony […]

The weakness of being weak …
Anyone who’s had the perseverance to keep perusing my posts|comments of late may have some idea of the fact that I keep complaining of being tired. Like, REALLY tired.

Re-blogging myself – for a reason
http://wp.me/p3ZISx-2C Katoomba has just had fairly serious fires through it, again … Sometimes they must really wonder if it’s worth living up there in the mountains, in the cool, with all those wonderful trees … Because all too often it becomes terrifying. And the other half of my reason for re-blogging this, my very first […]

Done the second-last for 2014
… and in truth, the second-last, period. Yesterday I took another lengthy train trip, down to Sutherland – which has a most delightful library (about to be re-furbished). Eleven people had booked a place, but fewerturned up.It happens, and for a variety of reasons. My talk was videotaped for the library’s website, and I shall, […]
