Should ā€˜hours’ be changed to days, weeks, years, months or decades for all of England to stop whinging about the rules and the weather? A feature of their calamity is demands for rule changes, extra days and a roof. Anything to ensure England win šŸ˜‚ #Ashes23 #Ashes2023

To ⁦The Courier-Mail⁩ ⁦Cairns Post⁩ ⁦Townsville Bulletin⁩ ⁦ABC News⁩ ⁦7NEWS Queensland⁩ and all in between. There are no croc infested waters in Queensland. A mouse plague is an infestation. An average of 1 croc per kilometre is NOT an infestation.

Gotta say Epic Games Store and Xbox and Xbox Support you’re all useless. Epic Games Support You both told me to contact each other and provided zero help. Pathetic. Should never have bought the Xbox. Should’ve gotten a play station. How freaking hard can it be to fix this?

Dear me Westpac Bank How the hell does anyone get in touch with a real person in your business? I’ve called your general enquiries line three times only to be hung up on automatically. Don’t you have a call centre? Don’t you employ someone who can actually take a call?

Just a note to ABC News ABC Brisbane that there are NO crocodile-infested waters in Queensland. A mouse plague is an infestation. There’s probably more sharks in waters around Hinchinbrook Island. They lasted hours in the water so no infestation. abc.net.au/news/2024-07-0…

Showing a complete lack of class The West Australian Absolutely disgraceful. Adam Simpson did more for Western Australia than you grubs ever have. Here’s a reminder of your pathetic meltdown. No wonder you’re a disrespected rag.

From Dudinin to domination… The story of Billy Duckworth - football legend and winner of the 1984 Norm Smith Medal. Essendon FC perhaps some inspiration for 2024? Story on Footy Almanac footyalmanac.com.au/almanac-footy-…

Can all journalists stop using ā€˜croc-infested waters’. It is lazy and incorrect. There are no croc-infested waters in Queensland. A mouse plague is an infestation. Several crocodiles in a river system is NOT an infestation. Stop dramatising for clicks. ABC News The Courier-Mail

If you’re looking for an entertaining Saturday morning read, check out this story about former Test umpire Mel Johnson!

It took me a while to find Mel, but I am so happy I did. A former Test umpire, he was at the helm during some infamous incidents that stunned a nation!

Okay Telstra Since 19 April 2025 service to Elimbah had either been patchy or nil. Twice it has been restored for a couple of hours. Now it is out again. Coming up to ten days without proper service. Can’t take or make calls. No access to internet. It is ridiculous. Fix it.
