I have been blessed by the generosity of Samoan ladies. They gave me a flower and a pocket full of lollies

Have had some tears going while watching clips of the last episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. I went to a taping of it back in 2018 and had an absolute blast. Can't for the life of me remember who was being interviewed but remember Stephen being so amazingly warm and kind to the audience pre taping.

I went to a place called Rattle n Hum afterwards and had to fake having fireball for the first time.

Attn Spin... Pickle twisters are at Woolies.

Would tag you but Jerboa sucks and I don't know how to make it work.

Can I interest anyone in a slice of Lions Club fruit cake?

[-] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 points 2 days ago

Oooo. Yes please. I love their fruit cakes.

[-] Alamutjones@aussie.zone 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

So do I. Major nostalgia thing for me - my grandfather was a member for years, so a Lions Club fruit cake was my grandmother’s contribution to the season.

I got one for Christmas in 2025, and have just cracked it open. My god, so much cake. Please, take some

I am exhausted with this cold/flu

going to bed

cough mixture has had to be taken, so much coughing

[-] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 points 2 days ago

Miss Seagoon just came over and said she was furnishing her spare room for when people stay over. 😭

Woke up with one very swollen eye. Giving me flashbacks to when my ex farted on my pillow and gave me pinkeye πŸ˜‚ I don't think it's pink eye this time though, no weeping and it isn't pink or red, just swollen.

Getting a blood test done today will be interesting lol

Day goes well thus far

[-] SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 4 points 2 days ago

What a glorious morning for a bike ride! Just a shame about the lack of dogs spotted on said ride!

[-] tombruzzo@aussie.zone 3 points 2 days ago

A bit cold this morning but the ride home is shaping up to be lovely

[-] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 4 points 2 days ago

The man brought home these ugly cake plates. I'm gonna eat lamingtons and Vegemite sandwiches off them while reading Possum Magic. Not today. Today is beer day.

[-] Thornburywitch@aussie.zone 4 points 2 days ago

I quite like the design of the lyrebird.

[-] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 4 points 2 days ago

they truly are hideous , the blue is ok

they might make good xmas gifts

If you're looking for a doco on porridge competitions The Golden Spurtle on Netflix is your show. 5/5 for entertainment.

*A golden spurtle is a spurtle that is golden that has its own suitcase. Not my words

**Porridge must be stirred clockwise or the devil might come out. Also not my words

[-] Alamutjones@aussie.zone 4 points 2 days ago

adds to lengthy Netflix list

[-] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 2 points 2 days ago

You gotta watch it now.

The clockwise bit is for the northern hemisphere. Like bathwater, it goes the other way south of the equator.

Not even joking but that is right up my alley. I will watch either tonight or this weekend and report back

Back on the bike to work today. It has been a while and gotten so much colder since last ride so I'm using public transport whilst it's still free. If I don't get back on the bike now I won't until Spring.
