Cheeky!

Too frustrating for me.

New puppy is Koby (aka King Koby). Skippy is still here very much but Koby is a real pleasure. He can look like Skippy but he is a very different dog. Cheeky and cute.

Yes, I do. All good here, I am actively involved in the Community Independent, Alex Dyson's campaign. It has been wonderful.
How bout you? Well?

Yep. I have a strong commitment to unionism but as a young woman I experienced the blantant discriminatory sexism and even bullying from some organisers. I am glad that things have improved but the union patriarchy shot themselves in the foot for treating women as lesser.

Greed is so ugly. These men have a polished veneer covering rotten decaying wood underneath. Their souls are riddled with borer.

The vibe here in Wannon is like a breath of fresh sweeping across the electorate. Keep your fingers crossed for us. People have come out and dared to put up corflutes, stickers and everything, many are still scared to do so. There is so much at stake for us in this election on so many levels.

This is our shame.

Isn't your car carrying a sticker? Shame! Mine has two 😁

Thank you Tracy. That makes clear a very murky and sad situation.

Thanks for the reminder Bridie. ❤️

I expect when the thugs in their crowd reacted they would be forced to address the issue.

This is the man I am voting for. He is honest, intelligent, kind, a gentle man who will, I hope will soon represent the people of Wannon and show leadership for the people of Australia. The latest polls says this will happen.

I describe him as empty...nothing there except bile.

I am a volunteer for Alex Dyson, Community Independent in Wannon. I have been immersed in doorknocking, and more. It seems to me that in my part of the world that there is change in the air. I am hopeful and trying to prepare for whatever.

That woman must have a serious mental health problem, she can't get over it.

I do think we take trees for granted.

Go Ellie!

It's good to get cheery news at a time like this.

South West coastal Vic and it's day three of smoke haze, presumably from the grampians and other local spot fires.

Good luck Ellie!

My great uncle died with other timber workers in Matlock, fleeing on foot. Family story is he jumped into a water tank and boiled. A great aunt's guest house burnt down in Healesville.

It's a LNP tactic to try to get independent votes split. They crowd the ballot paper with independents and hope to slide in through the confusion.

Thanks Richard. I'll stick to my black tea I think.

I'm pretty cool but this is what the thermometer says below. Of course its not correct, it is 10.45am! It shows indoor 26.7 and outdoor 36.3.
We have a strawbale home, so no air con. And it's comfortable enough. We have a fan if we need it.
But the wind outside is a shocker.

The cool change should be here today. That'll be a relief.
We are preparing for a hellish summer. Fortunately where I am we should be relatively safe from fire, but that's just cos we are not in a forest.

Stay cool.

Why caffeine Richard? Serious question.
In SW Victoria it's 29 degrees at 9.30am. Ugly winds.
Stay safe.

Good morning to you Stephen! Stinky day here in SW Victoria. It is good to see your post!
