Orange Blossom Orchid (Sarcochilus falcatus) flowering here.

A night of of free to air Tele tonight. Bruce Willis busting ass on multiple channels. And last night it was Matt Damon I mean what the…

I think if you can successfully pull off a Louvre heist in broad daylight you should get to keep the loot.

Extreme fire weather to hit NSW on Wednesday www.weatherzone.com.au/news/extreme...

What a deal. My @smh @theage cartoon.

Woke up early expecting rain here this morning early. Hasn’t arrived yet but met is warning us - stinking hot in NSW ahead of front and fires burning. Cloud ceiling still high but descending.

Sunny spring day for big fella Bogong.

Welcome home. My @smh @theage cartoon.

Good morning from Mt Beauty.

That was good #Take5 with Zan Rowe interviewing #Paulkelly #ABC. What a legend.

This article is boring and forever taking, but it does finally explain how this battery works. Most cunning it is too.

For any USA followers, log on to ABCiview (Aust public broadcaster) & watch #4corners for more flagrant Trump corruption - this on his private profiteering on bitcoin & crypto currency. Even to point of skewing US foreign policy. Award winning ABC reporter John Lyons, who was attacked by Trump

Morning all

If Albanese visits the US after they invoke the Insurrection Act there can be absolutely no doubt he’s comfortable with aligning Australia with a fascist state.

Watch reporter John Lyons’ story Chasing Trump’s Billions, on #4Corners ABC TV tonight 8.30 AEST & support public interest #journalism. Via YouTube for international viewers. This story famously led Donald #Trump to threaten John’s questions were “hurting Australia”. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-10...

Approving new coal mines assuming they will be profitable aligns Australia to IPCC's SSP5 'fossil fueled development' tajectory. SSP5 means *at least* 2.7C global heating, likely 4C, by 2100. The government's own National Climate Risk Assessment shows 3C is disasterous for every Australian.

Meanwhile back at home not so good news…

Up at Marulan NSW for the weekend and scored a room at the historic Terminus hotel. And they have the equally historic Tooheys Old on tap!

First paving job for spring completed :)

"You cannot get through a single day without having an impact on the world around you. What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make." Rest in Peace, Jane Goodall 🙏🏻

I love this This is the best of humanity.

Hilarious!!

It ceased being a war long ago. It has been *exclusively* a genocide for *many* months now. So this is not a peace plan, and Trump is not a peace broker. He *may* secure a flimsy, farcical, open-ended agreement by one of his foreign-autocrat friends to *slightly* pull back on the genocidal throttle.

"It is a 5 minute walk from my house to the Pub. It is a 30 minute walk from the Pub back to my house." "The difference is staggering."

Wow — Italy and Spain have now both officially announced they're sending military ships to support the Gaza aid flotilla

That speech by Donald Trump at the United Nations was a disgraceful and full of contempt. What an sick President America has got.

He stood in front of the world at the UN today, and every other word out of his mouth was a lie. I’ll say it again, we’ve not been here before. An American President who lies as he breathes. It’s a terrible place to be. Shame on the media & everyone who’s normalized his lying and/or doesn’t care.

David Rowe any way the wind blows.. Financial Review

First landscape job after winter. Brick paving for a local public school at Tawonga.

Will pro Israel lobby groups pay for this? Will Ita Buttrose pay for this? No, we will pay for this. The already stretched ABC budget will fund less local content this year due to political interference and terrible management. #OurABC #AusPol

“Emmanuel Macron had to walk half an hour by foot through New York after his speech to the United Nations on recognising Palestine as a state. Video footage shows him getting out of his car to talk to police officers after they stop his vehicle…” www.theguardian.com/world/2025/s....

The consumption of McDonalds started in the 1950’s and has rapidly grown. Narcissists have become increasingly common in the last few decades, especially in the US. Therefore McDonalds causes narcissism It should be banned Thank you for your attention to this matter!

John Lyons has done Australia a favour.

Kaboom thunderstorm approaching!

“Left did cancel culture and now right is doing it.” No, right framed and named cancel culture (fighting against the monopolisation of speech by the repressively powerful) and have now appropriated it for the purpose of actively repressing the powerless and silencing dissent *against the powerful*.

The march. My @smh @theage cartoon.
