I had a rose. A climber called Kiss Me Kate. Over 3 metres tall. She had beautiful flowers but in 4 years she gave me a total of 2 flowers. While waiting for TC Alfred I decided that Kate’s time was up. She gave me one last Kiss before leaving. I believe it’s called a Liverpool Kiss 💋

Excuse my naivety. Is the “ability to make money” actually equivalent to “ managing the economy”? One is about self-interest. The other is about public good. And I don’t think Dutton understands the concept of “public good” www.abc.net.au/news/2025-02...

Ian Fleming's original James Bond novels haven't aged well. For example, Moonraker - published almost exactly 70 years ago in April 1955 - features a villain who's a super-rich industrialist and rocket-maker seeking to cause chaos because he's a secret Nazi. Such a silly idea!

Gardasil has and will continue to save many human lives. So I guess if you don’t think that’s a good thing maybe reconsider your attitude towards human and specifically female health

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do. Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.

Well he's either: A. a genius or B. a seriously dumb man-child who hasn't the intelligence to understand the consequences of his actions. My vote is for B. Actually seeing we are in a post-democracy dystopian nightmare world I'm calling all votes for B and if you think otherwise, you get a B too!
