Never fall afoul of the Country Women’s Association. They have an appetite for intrigue and plotting that the Borgia Popes would envy, and an intelligence network that would make MOSSAD look like rank amateurs.
If Dave Allen’s homosexuality joke is still on you tube it’s a classic.

I don’t know how these blood ‘n guts Missions continued as long as they did (I think it must have been late ’70’s before they petered out).
Pretty sure they drove more people away from the church than they attracted. I think the objective was for the devout to shame the lapsed into turning up for a dose of even more shaming.
I vaguely remember public attacks on the strays from pulpit.
Disgusting stuff, really.
They obviously weren’t avid readers of the Prodigal Son tale.
Now in the service of woke.
They’ve also gone broke.
As a result they had to close their national office.
Just to be clear regarding cathollaxy news.
I was aware of the dedication to the Immaculate Heart of Mary from this morning and knew it was for Russia and Ukraine which is not what the misleading Church Militant news headlines said.
The comment about what Cardinal Pell had said was also misleading, possibly deliberately so, so again directly from the horse’s mouth.
It shouldn’t surprise that some wannabee narrative contollers aren’t trusted to provide accurate information.
Timothy Nielsen at 7:15.
This is news to me.
Not saying it is incorrect.
Just when it was first approved it was only for #1 and #2.
Never going to be for boosters.
I’ve read a biography of an Irish Jesuit who’d run them prior to world war one when he went off to be a war chaplain but didn’t even know they were a thing in the 70s.
I feel now I’ve missed out.
novavax boosters approved, from another horse’s mouth
Tim I was quoting actual novavax reasons provided here.
Anyone currently getting novavax for the first time wouldn’t be in need of a booster for the foreseeable future would they?
What makes you think that? I don’t know what they’re claiming, but if some spike proteins vaxxes don’t give lasting immunity why should we assume that another one will?
I don’t really understand the spike protein argument, if you get covid you get extra plus spike protein don’t you?
As I understand it, the vaxxes are pretty massive doses of the spike proteins. How much exposure you have to spike proteins from covid itself depends on, firstly, whether you catch it, and secondly how severe the case is. In any case, the vaxxes don’t stop you getting covid. Remember, by not getting vaxxed you’ve got a 99%+ chance of not getting killed by covid and a 100% chance of not getting killed by the vaxx.
And hasn’t Andrews abandoned generalised booster requirements?
He hasn’t introduced them yet. It will, of course, be a political calculation. If as the weather gets cooler we get more “cases”, and more covid-attributed hospitalisations, ICU admissions and deaths, Dan will gauge the hysteria against the resentment against compulsion, and if hysteria has more votes in marginal seats Dan will introduce booster mandates and no doubt many other regulations.
I lust after this dish, colcannon but small amounts is best. Must have been bought on by the Irish pub dissing.
So you can get Novavax if the mRNA vaxxes almost killed you?
I shouldn’t be flippant about ‘missions’ they sound pretty ghastly and I’m glad I never went to one as a child.

They’ll never stand for such scurrilous demonstrations…
Yep the CWA was taken over by the busybody doctors wives and it is gorrrrn.
I don’t know.
I thought Andrews had abandoned general boosters because the federal government does not require them for international visitors.
I guess we don’t know what tricks Andrews has up his sleeves but there will be a state election at the end of the year and I’m hopeful that will keep any covid strong arming at bay.
And I’m not really bothered by spike proteins.
its been show the mRNA can persist for something like 8 weeks because its not normal mRNA. you get a uncontrolled dose of potential long duration. nor does it include all the other proteins in the virus. the entire thing was bad idea from start to finish.

novavax boosters approved, from another horse’s mouth
Thanks rosie, I was a fortnight behind in my info.
Not sure exactly what’s meant by the link. ATAGI have “recommended” it can be used as a booster “if no other vaccine is suitable”, but they’re only an advisory body and the TGA haven’t yet actually approved it as a booster at all. So it seems still to be in limbo – but it can presumably be expected that the TGA will eventually approve it. Quite what “suitable” means though remains to be seen if and when the TGA does pick up the ATAGI recommendation.
Did somebody preserve the Scone, Lamington, Lemon Meringue Pie and Vanilla Slice recipes?
#CulturalTreasures
Here’s a guess:
There were 2 guys in the incident Roberts Smith was Awarded VC for.
The other guy was recommended for the VC.
When the recommendation got further up the Hierarchy, someone there
said to his fellows
“Hey, why don’t we kill 2 birds with one stone?
We’ll award Roberts Smith the VC, that brings him back to Australia and he stops being a problem.”
PS rosie, via the link ATAGI does discuss the possibility of using Novavax as a booster for Novavax primary vaxxed, which suggests that boosters will be needed by Novavax primary vaxxed. Interestingly ATAGI don’t seem keen on the idea, though they don’t rule it out.
Sure, but it’s old news.
Why didn’t Markson blow the whistle 2 years ago?
The polling suggests Victorians are quite happy with covid strong arming.
Let’s see what a winter outbreak brings.
In the meantime, Matthew Guy seems preoccupied with the Ukrainian invasion. Understandable from a personal point of view, but I’m not sure how it helps him as an aspiring state leader. Victoria is not exactly Alberta, where 1 in 10 citizens is of Ukrainian descent.
If Dave Allen’s homosexuality joke is still on you tube it’s a classic.

Very sad this is happening more often.
NSW Health is reporting seven people dead with COVID-19; four women and three men.
One person in their 40s,
one person in their 50s,
two were in their 70s,
two were in their 80s and one person was in their 90s.
Of the people aged over 65, one person had received four doses of the vaccine, two people had received three doses of vaccine, and two people had received two doses of a COVID-19 vaccine.
The two people under 65 who died had both received three lots of the vax.
If this was any other vax, the TGA would have recalled the vaccines by now and pit a stop to this insanity.

Can be found in the CWA Cook Book, c.1965, in the National Library.
Along with mock chicken sandwiches, devils on horseback and other assorted delicacies.
Prescient!
Disagree.
The TGA have never withdrawn any vaccine ever, and the list of Big Pharma Medicines they’ve nixed would be a blank sheet of paper.
I do seem to recall the TGA going to war over people using Comfrey, many years ago.
1 person died, the TGA went nuts.
Every newly wed bride in rural Australia got a copy of the CWA cookbook as a wedding present.
Zipster,
Thanks so much for bringing to my attention the video by Michael Matt.
I forwarded it on to family members who were most appreciative.
CRISIS in UKRAINE: What’s REALLY Going On
Despatches from the COVID wars in McGoonistan:
First, the Chief Health Officer has refused a permit for a swimming race between Fremantle and Rottnest, because (to quote the report in the West Australian) “the State Government believes swimmers without masks could pose a COVID threat”. But: it is OK for 30,000 people to half fill Optus for a football match.
Second, the local medical practice has instituted procedures which might be appropriate during an outbreak of the Black Death – you make your appointment online, when you arrive in your car, you ring reception to let them know that you are there, and when the doctor is able to see you, a receptionist phones you and tells you that you can come in. She remains in the waiting room behind a floor to ceiling Perspex screen, so that you won’t infect her.
Re Novavax: I have had to cave in to pressure from family and friends over my refusal to be Jabbed, I have tried to explain to them that the RNA vaccines may be more dangerous to you than the disease itself, but to no avail, I think that most of them get their information from TV and the West Australian, both sources are adamant that Jabbing is essential. Mr MacGoon has said that boosters may be necessary for seven to ten years. I have chosen the Novavax as the least dangerous option but, as someone has said on this thread, I would prefer a 100% chance of surviving without being jabbed, to a 99% chance of surviving COVID.
I’m trying to think what happened to my mum’s copy.
I used to flick through it as a kid…a real treasure trove of recipes that did the most with the least ingredients.
Never put comfrey on your mutton. Rosemary, lemon or garlic.
Intravenous injections of Vitamin C, doctors have had their licence suspended, never getting it back.
So, yeah, the TGA can be ferocious, but when it’s Big Pharma, they’re pussycats.
I’ve yet to see a single cat ever saying anything remotely positive about Andrews.
Maybe Monty or Numbers might have in the good old days.
All seven multiply vaxxed up to their eyeballs. Okaay, it clearly works really awesomely.
Sad to see. Maybe an actual treatment might improve people’s chances. How about an antiviral that is so safe it’s been on the WHO essential medicines list for roughly forever…?
The missions were a call to repentance, conversion; not unlike the voice of the Baptist in the wilderness or of Pell in Rome.
Slimming Teas is another one.
The TGA will send a fucking SWAT team over to your house if you try and promote those.
I didn’t have a lot to repent at that age.
🙂
Matthew Guy is the Liberal leader? huh. Didn’t even notice. Goes to show how useless they are.
As for polls, I suspect there’s a lot of people who’re not going to answer in favor of Andrews who just don’t answer at all. Look to the size of the protests last year for a better idea I reckon.
I hope you’re right.
Bruce:
The vaccine killed these people.
7 people with nothing in common other than multiple recent CovidVaxxes die?
No way that can be a random distribution.
So do I. Hopefully the people conducting the polls have continued the poor practices that caused the misses with Trump and our last federal election. Otherwise I don’t see any decent future for the country.
And who was the dreaded TGAs ally in their war on slimming Teas, Comfrey, Vitamin C, etc.?
Why, none other than our much despised MainScreamMedia, who have been lying like demented freaks over how well the Ukes are going in their Russian War.
There is a CWA cookbook at Casa Pedro, dated 1953.
Full of wonderful old fashioned recipes like mutton chop casserole, lambs fry and onions, boiled beef and white sauce , scotch eggs and masterpieces like mushroom and herb stuffed chokos and cracked wheat and parsley salad.

One of my treasures is a cookbook started by my grandmother just after her wedding in 1922. The binding is tatty now and the pages yellowed, but from the first page young Emma’s pride in her marriage and her husband leaps out to enthral the reader.
I still use many of her recipes: her tomato sauce, plum sauce (which my kids call Emma P’s rocket fuel,) Christmas cake, date loaf and various jams. She also had recipes for amonia biscuits, cough medicine, floor and furniture polish, poultices, shampoo and soap.
Later in the book, her copperplate handwriting is interrupted by a child’s scrawl. My mother’s. Both gone now – Emma just in her thirties, leaving her young daughter to the care of her father, grandmother and eight adoring aunts.
I still get misty-eyed every time I open that little book.
That one might have been in the booster pack Grigory ate on Wednesday fortnight ago, thinking it was a beer coaster…
That sounds potent.
What was her secret ingredient?
Loads of garlic, chili and mace.
Got the removal truck booked already……
I’ll say something nice about the bat eared mong. It would be nice to see him dead.
Mace, not an easy one to find.
Ingredient in quite a few soups, alas unobtainable in shops & from regular wholesalers.
I’ve always found it intriguing that my grandmother used chili, mace and garlic freely in the 1920’s and 30’s, but my mother never, ever used them. In fact, I never saw garlic until my mid teens, and chili much later.
Glorious. 🙂

“possibly” V “deliberately”
Headlines (as bolded in the title of the post), are NOT the whole story.

Sharing headlines is NOT controlling the narrative.
To deliberately mislead people is to attempt to control the narrative.
Still managing to avoid the headline re: the sacredness of the unborn child, in the post you’ve deliberately tried to taint as “misleading”, is a blatant attempt at controlling the narrative, but that’s cool and I won’t say why 🙂
Yeah but lets all ignore all Catholic News & views unless it’s, “cathollaxy news”, i.e., it only comes directly from rosie/notafan and those she approves of.

“They Laughed At The Parents” – Leaked Audio Reveals How California Teachers Recruit Kids Into LGBTQ Clubs
A leaked audio recording revealed California teachers mocking parents over concerns about homosexual and transgender indoctrination at school, said a source who attended a recent teachers union conference in Palm Springs.
The recording, obtained by The Epoch Times, captured two seventh-grade teachers, Kelly Baraki and Lori Caldeira from Buena Vista Middle School in Salinas, Calif., telling other teachers how to recruit students into LGBTQ clubs, also known as “Gay-Straight Alliance” (GSA) clubs, at school.
“It was horrifying to listen to not just one teacher but really all of the teachers in all of these seminars, excoriating parents,” said the source, who goes by the pseudonym Rebecca Murphy.
Murphy attended the California Teachers Association (CTA) conference in late October. She told The Epoch Times the teachers “mocked” parents for their concerns, and suggested they know better than parents about what’s best for their children.
“They laughed at the parents,” Murphy said.
The sold-out CTA conference, billed as the “2021 LGBTQ+ Issues Conference, Beyond the Binary: Identity & Imagining Possibilities,” was held Oct. 29 to 31.
The CTA has hosted similar “Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity” (SOGI) professional development training for at least the last two years, according to an event notice posted on the United Teachers of Los Angeles (UTLA) website, which asks teachers: “Do you have the courage to create a safe environment that fosters bravery to explore sexual orientation, gender identity and expressions?”
However, according to Murphy, the purpose of conference in Palm Springs appeared to be about teachers showing other teachers how to undermine the authority of parents and school administrators and conceal activities related to gender inclusion and sexual orientation from them.
See the whole story here:

The three classes Murphy attended were designed to recruit middle school students to GSA clubs, she said.
The sold-out CTA conference, billed as the “2021 LGBTQ+ Issues Conference, Beyond the Binary: Identity & Imagining Possibilities,” was held Oct. 29 to 31.
None of those who have appeared on either side of that shit-show have shown any of the qualities I would expect of men belonging to those units.
Not one.
And don’t give me “long tours” and “multiple postings”.
They’ve been carrying on like 13 year old girls months and years after their time in Afghanistan.
Pathetic.
Simplest and most obvious explanation?
She’s a Spook.
Not hero-worshipping anybody, Bush.
I would much prefer to see what comes of the actual trial, not Grigs slandering someone using his usual context and fact-free schtick for the purposes of being, well, Grigs.
No-one has come out of the testimonies or cross examinations thus far looking particularly good, but if this is the best a decade of ‘actual’ criminal investigation and media-driven innuendo has got us to, then extending the man the benefit of a doubt for the time being seems quite reasonable.
Here’s my case in point, Bush:

Someone asked me the other day what I thought of the BRS thing.
Twelve months ago I would have said it was a media stitch-up without a doubt.
Now?
I just said that I honestly don’t know.
And that isn’t a result of media chatter.
Even based on the undisputed matters I am disappointed in his behaviour.
Several decades of relentless politicking and Hillary-style skulduggery behind the scenes, I suspect. Though with significantly less Arkanicide.

Rex, to be clear, I wasn’t particularly referring to the core allegations.
All of them come out of it looking like petty teenagers because of their general standard of behaviour.
Think The WEF Is Evil? You Have No Idea
Grigory, there is only one Rex Anger. And he’s right here.

ALL of them?
You’re referring to the SASR members?
Those who have given evidence in this shit-show.
Can you point to one who comes out of it looking half-decent?
Ex wives have a habit of saying that sort of thing.
Delta A:
Are they all the same?
Inquiring minds etc…
I see there is a whole lot of gibbering going on again.
I watched the ‘church militant’ news bulletin and I went to their website independently and looked at that, neither of them mentioned the full story; that the dedication to the Immaculate Heart of Mary was for both Russia and the Ukraine.
In the current atmosphere of western support for the Ukraine you have to wonder at ‘Church militant’s motives in implying that the Catholic Church was preferencing Russia over the Ukraine.
I also referred to the misrepresentation of what Cardinal Pell said because it had nothing to do with any discussion previously raised at the cat.
As for the rest of your irrelevant and bizarre tirade, I’m sick and tired of your attempts to paint me as pro abortion and profiting from the abortion industry.
Making false accusations to discredit those you dislike is clearly part of your MO.
You even lie about lying.
When will it stop?
What’s this reference to the CWA cookbook?
There’s dozens & dozens of differing volumes & pamphlets with that name.
You mean the troopers who have persevered with these allegations?
Because maybe, just maybe, they know right from wrong.
Oh that’s right, they’re just pissed off because they were passed over for a gong and/or had a few personal differences with the hero.
Apparently there is an ADF Special Forces WAG hierarchy that makes Nadia Nose Beers-Bartel, Brooke Cotchin and that entire AFL menagerie look like third-rate amateurs.
Odd how the diatribes against one poster suddenly stopped so it was back to me being the target.
Why is that?
ZK2A:
Um. Haven’t we seen this movie before?
With Tits Shorten ready for government?
Maybe.
But along the way they have exhibited traits I wouldn’t have expected out of that group.
And I am suss of blokes getting criminal indemnity in return for testimony in a civil case.
This being obtained before they’ll talk, really really does not assist me to believe that BRS is the baddy.
Mmmyes.
The bloke who had to miss a tour to sort out his missus who wanted $50k to withhold publication of his holiday snaps.
I believe he was one who was granted immunity.
Makes you wonder what’s in his happy snaps, eh.
To be clear, I am not talking about the core allegations of criminality.
Just the general tenor of shitty behaviour.
That’s just BullShit.
Anyone on CentreLink Benefits [presumably the entire aboriginal population in the NT] is automatically enrolled when they turn 18.
Felons can’t be Jurors, so that rules out a considerable minority [?]
then there are challenges.
Aborigines in these Communities appear to be under the thumb of the cops, so they mightn’t make real solid Jurors.
Or the chap who booted out for having a root in the barracks.
Whatever he said about BRS you’d be able to take to the bank, sure.
Heck, standard procedure. Were I the OC of a special forces unit & one of my gun operators, with years of training & unit cohesion in him, was sprung porking a sheila in barracks I’d instantly boot him from the army.
Sure.
Totally with you.
Re the core allegations, I’ll defer to the piece by Noel Pearson, linked/posted the other day by Zk2A.
Most likely all Spooks.
I’d say.
Still thinking about going to Ukraine, Salvatore?
They need you at the Yuvorov Training ground, since an Iskander vaporised about 200 mercenaries there on Monday.
Or the chap who’d been done for having 500 rounds of ammo in his civvy car, the ammo then got “stolen” or somesuch bullshit story.
Coz as anybody who’s been in the army knows, procedures around the control of ammo are pretty loose & several hundred rounds ending up in your civvy car is something that could happen to anyone.
Anything he says about BRS would be totally credible & something you could stake your life on.
Piss off, Grigory.
What country am I living in now?
BOOM
Like Steve Earle used to say…
NOW THE REVENUE MAN WANTED GRANDADDY BAD…
That article was rubbish.
No fraternisation on base or within the ranks has been standard Defence policy for years. Zero tolerance.
Granted that I have heard several anecdotal variations on the ‘walk of shame’ from various Regs I worked with in the past, but it was always quite a serious offence.

Crikey Rex, what was that about?
I accidentally began to read one of Ed Casement’s posts a day or two ago. I’ll recover from the (brief) exposure to supreme dickheadsmanship, however the beneficial result is a significant improvement of my ability to scroll past.
Australia isn’t allowed to conduct spying operations, according to Dot.
Apparently he had a civvy chick set up living with him in Army quarters.
Dunno how it worked, or exactly where he was living.
So what penalty would you suggest for a certain young rooster who would retire to his room for the weekend with a carton, and his current camp follower?
A monumentally hungover Zulu Kilo wandered into the showers one Sunday morning, and shambled past an occupied cubicle, before he realized that the occupant was built rather differently to the normal occupants….
Silly, silly man.
If he’d shacked up with a rent-boy, he’d be a brigadier by now.
Grogarly, QC. has spoken..
Why, Grigory?
Whatever the DFDA declares about the topic.
I’m pretty sure that a Notice to Show Cause was one of the likely responses to getting done. Certainly that was the vibe of every general warning on fraternisation I remember receiving…
I think Grigs is just having a lash out, trying to provoke something. And just like his usual gypsum-fuelled disruptive antics, it hasn’t worked out quite as well as expected…
Sancho, the age of reason in Aristotelian and Jesuitical terms was considered to be arrived at by the age of seven. (The ‘Seven Up’ series is something of an exploration of this.) Hence the missions were very much in keeping with the societal norms, even if looking back people now think otherwise. Relatively speaking, 35 or thereabouts as the current age of reason is no more tenable than that of 7 as the age of reason.
This is getting hard to follow
I just paid $150 bucks for a full tank of petrol!
BRS is exactly the sort of guy I want defending the country; the rest are faggots, lickspittles and nanny-boys. This is why they are targeting BRS: he is a son-of-a bitch who takes no prisoners.
Said to one of my company directors one day (he was Irish) that I would dearly love to do a motorcycle circuit holiday of Ireland.
‘It’s pretty fekkin’ wet’, he said.
‘Well, yeah, I’d obviously want to do it in summer.’
‘Nah’, he said. ‘Oi don’t tink you’d ever get all the way round in one day.’
You mean , Nancy- boys.
You mean , Nancy- boys.
Nanny-boys are the softer, more useless cousins of Nancy-boys. You should know that head prefect.
I hear there’s been some moderation at the site. Whose comments were partially canned. I’d guess it was cronkite.
If you want to go down that path, where would you rank Lt William Calley or Harry Harbord “Breaker” Morant?
Went out this evening with friends. I was enticed into ordering a Black Manhattan cocktail. FMD it’s a tough drink as I’m still feeling the effects even after wine with dins.
You sure that’s not the residual horror of the $150 refuel manifesting as something else?
Dude, 150 bucks is disgusting. I tell you that in a perverse way, that kind of cost is highly deflationary. The reason is that as people need to direct considerably more expenditure to fuel, the less is available to spend elsewhere.
shit JC, are you the same bloke was crowing ’bout oil going over $100?
Anyone in Perth who likes to have a bit of a poke around for wineries and food on the weekends, I can thoroughly recommend Fairbrossen in the Bickley Valley. Good wines, nice e people, great outlook. Food is limited to a choice of three platters … but it’s fresh and very nice. Try the Saperavi wine; it’s an 8000-year-old grape type from Georgia (as in Europe). Once you open it, you need to drink it … shame about that.
No argument. A week ago, I paid around $55-60 to fill my Getz up to about 35L.
Yesterday, a half-tank of about 20L cost me the same amount.
It’s a shitty arithmetic. Expensive fuel, combined with practically every person’s need for a car to work (or seek it out) makes for some hard budgeting choices.
Thanks mate, I’ll add that to the list when Pharaoh decides the lower orders can dine out.
Fr. Altman: Bishops have ‘redefined and weaponized’ the meaning of obedience to silence criticism

INDEPENDENCE, Ohio (LifeSiteNews) — Fr. James Altman, the well known “canceled” priest and co-host of LifeSite’s latest show Faith & Reason, gave an impassioned speech at the Bringing America Back to Life Convention this past Friday.
Receiving enthusiastic cheers when the emcee mentioned his name, as well as a standing ovation when he took stage, Fr. Altman launched into a scathing criticism of Catholic bishops in a talk titled “Obedience to God, Not Man.”
The object of Altman’s ire were bishops who’ve “redefined and weaponized” the meaning of priestly obedience. He called out by name Cardinal Wilton Gregory, Bishop Christopher Coyne, and Bishop William Callahan, the latter of whom removed Fr. Altman from his parish in La Crosse, Wisconsin.
Quoting St. Maximilian Kolbe, Altman clarified that priests promise to obey their bishops in all matters except when they “command something that is in even the slightest way a contravention of God’s law.”
“Monsters in miters have changed the apostolic definition of obedience and then weaponized it to silence all criticism and cancel priests and now even bishops on a regular basis,” he said.
Altman added that bishops cannot be “obeyed” when they demand their priests get injected with the abortion-tainted COVID vaccine, as well as when they threaten to punish them for speaking out too strongly against the vaccine, COVID restrictions, and the pro-abortion platform of the Democratic Party.
He also laid into bishops who kept the faithful away from the sacraments during the pandemic, who let pro-abortion politicians commit sacrilege by receiving Holy Communion, and who have failed to adequately teach the faithful right from wrong.
“Damnation awaits every single bishop whose silence is complicity,” Altman said. “Silence is complicity. Silence in the face of evil is evil itself. So like St. Peter before the Sanhedrin, we must say boldly, ‘Obey God before man.’”

Do they sell bottles?
The last time I did a winery-esque thing that was not a badly-organised RPH Staff Amenities Fund activity,* it was to New Norcia about 8 years ago. I came away with a very nice port, and relieved I had only consumed a single glass of their ale. That stuff went down like a lager, and had the punch of an IPA. Lovely stuff, but not when you have to drive…
* A rather bemused Anger was roped into directing people to the correct boat at South Perth Jetty, then the coaches, and spent the rest of the day being repeatedly mistaken for the person in charge. It did not help that I was A) sober, B) looked like I knew what was going on, and C) the lady who had done the organising started the day utterly clueless and finished it 3 sheets and spinnaker to the wind. Never go on a winery tour with hospital folks and their hangers-on, Cats…
Indeed they do.
I’m remembering watching a coach tour of the wineries of the Swan Valley, where several rather shapely young ladies were having a “Twerking ” competition in the car park…
Oh, and BTW, their fortifieds are pretty damn good, too.
Friend of mine used to be a “hostess” on one of the more popular Swan River winery tour boats. She said going up river was reasonably sedate … but going back down after bellyfuls of wine and food was a totally different experience!
I’m remembering one where a group of New Zealanders – none of who was sober – danced the haka in the aisle, and another, where three ladies of apparently respectable appearance danced a can – can……there were several hearty masculine cheers…….
She’s being polite- On this tour I refer to, ‘our’ boat was delayed getting in, and some folks charged clean past me, got on the boat intended for another group and were several hastily skolled glasses in before they got chased off.
Thanks, Bruce.
I might need to risk the terrible stabbing pains in my hip pocket from the fuel costs, and go for a drive this weekend… 🙂
Oh yes, that is shining through as the one constant in every piece of testimony.
Catallaxy could look at itself regarding bullying and ‘mean girls’. I am a decent woman with a reasonable sense of humour and many life experiences, but I was subject to one female’s constant bullying for years, which more recently became generalised in some sort of mounting madness, with no protection offered to me at all. Johanna’s ‘Rat with a gold tooth’, and Pogria’s pile-on then with the ‘Florence’ piece about a loony wealthy wanna-be opera singer were just a part of the general undercurrent of confected memes of denigration against me. All in all I have received very unfair harassment indeed here for doing no more than commenting in ways that many others did, and still do, and definitely from a non-left perspective. I think in the most recent period the level of abuse I received was one of the things that saw me over that period in Emergency at the Prince of Wales with a suspected heart attack in the early hours at 4am. A stress reaction complicating other factors.
Kimberley Kitchen’s death might give some people here pause to re-think their behaviours. Some things have consequences. Calli is much loved and appreciated here and deserves an apology for one rude comment. Even if I was neither of those things, I still deserve an apology too for ongoing and continual harassment, for I was a genuine contributor here, driven out by ridiculous upticking pile-ons and nastiness. Inexcusable, so no excuses should follow. Perhaps some lessons learned though.
Catallaxy is finished for me now but the treatment I received here will not be forgotten. I will write and publish analytically about it elsewhere, not necessarily in Quadrant, in a piece on internet bullying when my anger and sadness has dissipated, for it was a disgrace – the right is just as adept as the left at eating their own. Especially by strangely vindictive women, and by the men who then think they have been granted free run at a target.
Halfway point for vintage in Wallybrook. Whites all off, took the Tempranillo off last night, and not a moment too soon- they were past their prime, evidenced by the winemaker already flogging off half of the parcel to another buyer.
Reds? Who knows, weeks maybe. Birdnetting now, which is exhausting, but at least it’s a bit cooler.
Frontignan- muscat variety- netting also, they’re in a spot which every damn feathered critter seems to park up for the noontide. Don’t anyone moan about how expensive estate port is, it’s a slog every step of the way getting them into the bottle, and with spirit bond excise ticking away too.
Had to buy a new TV today.
Salesperson (SP): Size?
Me: Oh, about 9″ on a good day, if it’s not too cold!

Me: Well, it has to go on that white cupboard in the family room!
SP (rolling everything): Tv screen size?
Me: Oh, silly me … I want a 55″ screen.
SP: Very good, sir. LED, ULED, QLED or OLED?
Me: Yes, please.
SP (sighing): How much does Sir wish to spend?
Me: Oh! I want something really good, you know? So … oh … say $1200?
SP: OK … basic … entry level it is.
Me: Huh?
SP (consulting computer): We have the PolPot Victory set … 55″ … LED … mostly …
smart“semi-intelligent” model, 48 hours’ warranty, handcrafted in the Punjab, for … $995. But I like you (smirks), so for you I’ll knock it back to $987. It has Android.Me: But I’m an Apple person.
SP: But of course you are. Anyway, delivery is just another $125.
Me: Can’t I take it with me?
SP: What vehicle does Sir have?
Me: KIA Sportage
SP (sniffs): Oh. One of those. I’m sorry, Sir, it just won’t fit. Has to be kept upright while transporting.

OK, it wasn’t like that. Feller at The Good Guys was great; very knowledgeable and professional. Got Toshiba UHD 4K QLED 55″ for just a bee’s dick over $1k, including built-in soundbar and Google/Android stuff, shit, that I don’t even know about. Happy.
Lizzie-
I’ll miss you here, and I’m sure many other quiet lurkers here will too. Even your detractors will miss you, tho I know it’s bitter comfort, but a mark of your worth as an antagonist, as well as barracking for your passions.
Be forgiving, if you can. These past two years of batflu madness has pushed many into untenable positions.
I’ll miss you, Lizzie. I used to enjoy reading your posts. To me, you came across as a human being. Look after yourself.
Bruce
Some days, it’s just nice to get it.

Two problems with this. The nomination and approval process is very long. BRS completed that tour. Plus there is the fact he went back for another tour after he had received the VC.

Australia’s cowardly court system has betrayed ordinary citizens opposed to COVID jabs
Moral clarity and courage have not been evident in Australia’s judicial bodies.

Tue Mar 15, 2022 – 4:03 pm EDT
MELBOURNE (LifeSiteNews) — Perhaps the biggest disappointment in the COVID-19 crisis is the failure of Australia’s courts and judicial bodies to provide checks and balances on the politicians and bureaucrats who have aggressively robbed citizens of many of their basic rights. So far, no judges have shown any commitment to protecting those rights despite many attempts at litigation. There is little sign any will in the future.
I have felt this disappointment personally with my incitement changes. I am in and out of court regularly defending my innocence. However, in the broader community, this has been felt widely through the lack of support for individuals to make their own medical choices in order to be employed,
It was initially thought that the Fair Work Commission, whose role is to protect workers’ rights, would act to curb the vaccine mandates which blackmail workers into getting either jabbed or losing their jobs. Hopes were raised last September when the deputy president of the Commission, Lyndall Dean, said in a case about flu vaccines that vaccination mandates are “medical apartheid and segregation.” She described it as “the antithesis?of our democratic way of life and everything we value”, something that many of us Australians once thought, but no longer do. Dean extensively cited Federal law and judicial precedent to support her argument.
The response was swift and brutal. Dean was barred from hearing workplace vaccination matters and excluded from full bench work until she “completed training”. The message was clear to any other Commissioners thinking of standing up for the law. Do so, and you will lose your job.
Dean had expressed support for a social media post arguing public health measures implemented by the Australian government during the pandemic are akin to “Chinese-style totalitarian social control.” As if to prove the point, the manner of her silencing would have done any mid-level bureaucrat in the Chinese Communist Party, charged with re-educating dissidents, proud. Commission General Manager Murray Furlong said Dean would “attend training on responsibilities and standards of professional conduct expected of a member of the commission.” He added: “She will be excluded from all and any further full bench work at least until she’s completed that training … she has disqualified herself on the grounds of bias from adjudicating disputes relating to workplace vaccinations in future.”
Coroners are now joining in the deception. A Tasmanian father of four collapsed and died last year because of the side effects of the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine (a similar technology to the Johnson & Johnson inoculations). According to newspaper reports, Ian William Reed, 44, suffered from an intra-cerebral haemorrhage, a type of stroke involving a blood vessel rupturing and bleeding inside the brain and abnormal blood clotting.
Coroner Simon Cooper found that Reed died from an immunological response to vaccination. Then, when asked by Reed’s wife whether there had been adequate information about the vaccine’s risks and side effects, he made the outrageous comment that he was “satisfied that at the relevant time there was sufficient information available as to the potential side effects.”
That is the exact opposite of the truth. Since the middle of last year there has been nothing but blanket advertising and pronouncements from politicians and bureaucrats claiming that the vaccines are safe and effective. It was obvious at the time that the government could not possibly have known such a thing and were lying when they said they did. There was not even enough short-term data to demonstrate they were safe and effective, let alone medium and long term indications.
Their lies are now being exposed. The fact that booster shots are required after three to six months – they are being mandated for some workers around the country – shows that they are not effective for very long, if at all. Governments are no longer pretending that they stop transmission or infection, so the argument that getting jabbed is a way to protect the whole community has been exposed as false.
It is also becoming clear that they are not safe, and that this should have been known all along. Pfizer has been forced to release its clinical data – the company tried to hide it for 75 years, but at least one US judge still remembers what the law is – and the evidence is damning. Tellingly, Pfizer chief executive Albert Bourla is backpedalling on the decision to use an untried experimental gene therapy, mRNA, saying he found the strategy “counterintuitive”. There seems little doubt that the evidence of harm will continue to accumulate.
This is what Cooper should have said: “The government not only failed to warn people about the potential side effects of the vaccines, they insisted that they were completely safe when they could not have known this because even short term data was not available. They did not tell Australians that the jabs were only provisionally approved. They did not tell Australians that the gene therapy technology had either never been used or only rarely used. They did not tell Australians that the inoculations do not meet the Federal government’s own definition of what a vaccine is. They did not tell millions of Australians that they were participating in an experimental drug trial. They blackmailed Australians into choosing between their jobs and the jab, and viciously attacked anyone who disagreed. The government has criminally misled the people.”
This will not happen because it would require moral clarity and courage. Neither has been evident in Australia’s judicial bodies.

Imagine going through this shitshow and still believing in vaccination.
This time it’s different right JC?
Jo Nova exposes the contrast between the Europeans reopening their coal fired power stations while Australian idiot governments persist with the fantasy that we can indulge companies like AGL bringing forward closure of ours!
Angus Taylor is a failure, the Morrison goobermunt is a failure, but electing Labor would be about as sensible as electing Dems has been for the US. Things could be made even worse than the power fiasco they have all brought about. As things stand they will certainly be worse pretty soon.

Good.
Things have certainly “got worse” in the USA as a result of the fraudulent 2020 election. It’s big news that Wisconsin might decertify, as it would then be a precedent for other states which have been shown to have a lot of dodgy ballots to follow suit.
This is, after all, what January 6th was about. Pence’s role was to accept or deny all the state results as kosher, which he did (accept) even though there was huge doubt – amidst concerted attempts to shut down everyone, at whatever level of influence, who expressed those doubts. Silencing not just doubters but commission of further fraud (like deleting records thatbare supposed to be retained) has been the way things have gone. It hasn’t prevented the examination of ballots in a number of counties, large counties, where Biden was said to have won by “x” but dodgy ballots numbered multiples of x.
If the half term elections in November are gamed – or deferred due to some “national emergency” – the US will be saved by one method only – a military coup. This is why the radical left has worked hard to denature the armed forces. It’s also why Erdogan “cleansed” Turkey’s military.

I disagree with you completely about diseases not being transmittable, on this issue you are a nutcase. I agree with you on this tho, once you had the original shots, why stop?
You believe the government and experts, right?
More shit likely to hit the fan for Pfizer and Moderna.
When is a vaccine not a vaccine?
American Thinker opines that the above might yet cop big legal actions for damages resulting from the widespread use of and (hitherto not fully reported) adverse reactions to their “gene therapies.”
That seems to’ve been what happened in Russia too. Unfortunately if you purge the free thinkers and retain the incompetent toadies you get an army which is no longer very good at winning wars.
But if you don’t purge the competent professionals they just might purge you. Which is what happened in Egypt.
And if your army can no longer win wars, then it certainly isn’t going to win an insurrection of 100 million heavily armed furious righties. Therefore the Dems are going to be walking on eggshells very carefully into the mid terms.
