Big difference between β€œgoing back to the office” and β€œgoing back to work”. WFH is working…..

Yesterday's sunset is well worth a view. From Conder in the Lanyon Valley in Canberra.

A sunrise rather than a sunset. This is from Tura Beach just north of Merimbula on the Sapphire Coast in far south NSW.

Stormy skies this afternoon across the Lanyon Valley and Tuggeranong in Canberra. Didn’t bring a lot of rain though.

He even interrupted her to show footage. It was quite rude.

An embarrassment of riches for women’s sport this evening. Australia Open, the Ashes and Canberra United against Newcastle. I’m wearing out my remote.

Ooh, I hope you are successful. It is a beautiful place - my 88 year old Mum still lives there. I drive down to visit a fair bit. Will be there for a few days in early Feb

Indeed. A little like countries with β€œdemocratic” in their name - DPRK and the former GDR spring to mind.

I lived in Bendigo from 1972 until 1980 - so 100 years after the event took place!

Alison, thanks so much for the share! If it wasn't for the pioneering women in 1874, maybe we wouldn't have the women's Ashes today. Glad you're enjoying the story!

My first election was in 1982 - almost accidentally voted for the DLP!

@louisezed.bsky.social reading your lovely book "Bowl the maidens over" today in advance of heading to the day night women's Ashes test at the G at the end of next week.

Fascinating. I grew up in country Victoria in the 1960s (not Ballarat) and knew about the DLP. We were Methodist, ALP and union.
