Smokey Ficifolia

@gilgriffin.bsky.social After doing the 3 S's and got my Kilt on, I'm driving to Ballarat for a mate's Father's Funeral @ 11am. He was a decent man who loved his family, friends, and the Sth Melb / Sydney Swans...

Get well soon Emma!!

This newspaper is the most expensive toilet paper Down Under...

Dear @emmagraeauthor.bsky.social,
May your wee break be restful and recharging b4 you tackle your next book. Getting away for a Social Media Break is always a grouse (VIC Aussie Slang word meaning very good to Excellent) idea, regardless of the length of time you're away!!
Slán for now my online Pal

This was the first film I watched where I first heard of Robert Redford, becoming a fan of his work since 1984!!

Vale Robert Redford...

All of these hatreds only serve to devide us, rather than what we all have in common!!

@emmagraeauthor.bsky.social Besides my child cat Smokey being an awesome Cat, that'll stop me EVER getting another cat, I really hate Kittens!! Especially when friends have them because they're always in hunting mode, attacking my ankles!!!!!!!!

This is how to see and what Kedi is about!! Personally speaking, I'll never own another cat after my first family pet Smokey, a Black & Grey cat, when we lived at 9 Ficifolia Street, Doveton 3177, Victoria, Australia!!!
Smokey was the best cat in the world...

Now that your book is in the publisher's hands, you might like to unwind with this doco on cats???

I've got a similar cat with a knife design on a t shirt that I'll send you a pic this weekend, when I find it!! It'll give you another chuckle...

Dear @emmagraeauthor.bsky.social,
I am very tempted to buy you this in honour and next book!!

I never read the novel of The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas, though I did watch the film, which was amazing and terrifying. The trouble history is when it repeats!

@gilgriffin.bsky.social on average, how many more MLB games are left in this season???

Happy Father Day to all. Especially to the one's we lost, that live on in our hearts and our memories...

This virus has jumped from Live Stock to the No Water's (Aboriginal name for Koalas, as they very rarely drink water). Vets are doing their best to vaccinate the tree climbing marsupial species!! They're not bears but arecclosely related to Wombats!!!!

Chlamydia...

Much like a Writer's re-editing. Only YOU will know when it's the correct time for it go!! On a much lesser scale than PK & yourself, I've done that Leap of Faith is both terrifying & exhilarating at the same...
Emma, I believe in you!!

There's a section of the Book & CD boxes where Paul Kelly was in a recording studio in Ireland, describing his hopes and fears whilst trying to get every bit of artistic creativity into his latest album (at the time), where he had to eventually let it go out into the world.

Congratulations, and keep up the great work!!

@gilgriffin.bsky.social The most aptly named non-alcoholic beer in Australia!!

Orange wine or IRN BRU???

Tommy Hafey never smoked nor drank. That's why he had a Body like a body-builder into his 80's. I've got tales about him other Aussies, though this one needed telling...

Take care Emma, and good luck with the proofreading & editing!!

Slán for now💙🤍🐯

to take his life, until he heard Tommy Hafey speak!! Tom rang the student's home phone number straight away. They spoke off & on over the years. Richmond's 4 Premiership cups of 1967, 69, 73, and 74 pale in insignificance to saving someone's life!!! The student joined the Victorian Police force...
