As Rodriguez once said

'And don't try to enchant me
With your manner of dress
'Cause a monkey in silk
Is a monkey no less'

He’s an idiot and she’s an opportunist. Both entitled and as bad as each other. I wish the general public and the media would not feed their obsession with themselves. It's never going to end though. People love drama. Small minds.

Hi guys – sorry for the sporadic visits. Silly season is upon us, AND we have the prince of darkness to contend with as well. Stage 6 load shedding announced today. That’s two stages from blowing out the candles and kissing everything goodbye. Joy to the World!

Apparently, it’s not a whole lot better in some European countries – anything to console ourselves!! LOL! Tonight, I bottled chutney in the dark - no idea what it will look like in the light of day!  Rolleyes  My once-a-year foray into jam and chutney making - apricots, specifically - give it all away as gifts. Thank goodness for a gas hob.

And now, by the time the lights come back on, it will be time for bed. It's all a bit much. Anyway – if I’m a absent from MD, it’s not because I want to be, it's because fitting things in, in increasingly lengthy periods of no power and tired batteries, is exhausting and a complete pain in the derrière.

We are having a Switching on of the Christmas Lights event here on Sunday, on our town square,  which I help organise – now we have to find a generator and make contingencies all over the place. The hugely popular SA Navy Band is entertaining us and they are fab – looking forward to a good, festive community event! Will be back properly once it's all done. Cheers!!

i cannot even imagine what all that load shedding must feel like Ruby but it sounds awful.

the depravity of human cruelty against animals never ceases to amaze me: https://www.msn.com/en-au/news/world/tiger-suffers-agonising-death-after-being-left-suspended-in-the-air-by-wire-trap/ar-AA154CCv?ocid=msedgntp&cvid=b9335531d72c4d4f987f857b9523d4d5

Santa I am NOT impressed! That Russian mail-order bride I ordered for Xmas 20 years ago finally pitched up this morning. 20 years too late! Now what do you expect me to do with a 40 year old bride? And you got the configuration wrong as well. I had to send him back....

RE: I read the news today, oh boy! - JeromeD - 25-12-2022

Oh it's definitely a joke. Believe me!

The world just gets more and more insane with each passing year. Imagine what it's going to be like in 50 years time.
