The Daily Gaggle

   Not a day passes when we hear of another event taking place that  shakes our faith in humanity. sometimes it is another conflict between nations but mostly it is occurring on our own streets. Rapes , bashings, drive by shootings. Drug and alcohol fuelled bashings  have become second rate news as common as parliamentarians lies - crookery and sex exploits. Listing these happenings would never end, but home invasions where innocent and vulnerable aged persons are beaten senseless for their meagre possession's by persons with drug habits is on the increase. It is also a sad fact that domestic violence takes many different forms but there is one factor constant throughout: There is never any excuse for it . Assaulting one's partner is becoming more common too this is  unthinkable to level headed persons and yet because it has become more common, it is usually overlooked as simply a domestic disagreement  usually sorted out by a cu...

Those of you who are Family orientated may be aware that a Monopoly game becomes a battle when dad is playing. My research reveals fathers are more likely to go all out to win when they play board games with their children- or grand children. Mum's in the main are quite happy to see their children enjoy the thrill of victory if it makes life more easier, it seems most dads enjoy a 'school of hard knocks' approach either because they themselves  can't stand losing, or to teach their child how it feels to taste defeat. However, this usually creates a problem for most kids who  in most cases throw a wobbly if they don't win. Wives too become annoyed when they mostly lose when playing card games, to keep the peace it is best to create a winning opportunity from time to time  for  madame although it tends to go against the grain of my superior  male ego. Read this the other day.  Recently a Dead man has been elected to the Texas State Senate, a few week...

Cor stone the crows, whatever next.

Sunday 24TH. Rained a bit last night, the sun is creeping higher in the cloudless sky to add to the discomfort of the expected humid 30c at noon today,and we are going shopping soon, the shops are less populated when the misc worshipers are absent praying for the sins they have committed this past week. I wonder what wickedness you have been involved with during the past week? Myself; well apart from using strong language in a anonymous letter to our local council, I have been pleasantly disposed to most of my contacts except the next door ginger tom who was hosed down to cool his ardour. The bad news this past week is, we didn't win lotto and the god news is my dreaded 'C' has disappeared from my water tank, but I still have to have periodical? checkups. Have been doing a lot of ifs  buts and why's over the possibility of her and I trotting over to the Sceptred Isle, Problem is Although I have a licence to drive in the U/K inspecting the road in front of you and not...

"JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE LOSING. NA Na NANA NA, What a petulant bunch of sore losers, spitting the dummy namby pambies, only a couple of players worth their salt. Read it in the Sydney Daily Telegraph. Long gone are the days when a batsman was given a more gentlemanly departing statement like" hard luck old chap" when given "Out" following a gentle clapping of hands. The spirit of the game has now descended to it lowest level, few teams would pass the skulduggery test. Likened to war minus the shooting.The weebix muncher 'Binga' heralded the 'AIR Punching ritual which sadly has been copied by other gormless bowlers, this is usually followed by the hyped up team members leaping on each others backs and patting each others Bums, makes one wonder what goes on in the dressing rooms away from the public eye. The latest news on the test series in India looks grim for the remaining bunch of Ducks. Remember the days when it was a hard slog winning in Austra...

I had intended to include this after the previous post , however, I was called away. For those who have never heard of Bunnings, Bunnings is a Ginormous company which flogs all manner of things from - well just about everything, you name it they have it. They also have a huge garden nursery attached to their stores flogging seeds, fertiliser plants and trees with branches everywhere in Australia, They are part of the conglomerate of companies  including Coles, K Mart and others  trading under West farmers I believe. Pm yesterday after leaving the Aldi Store  we called into Bunnings for seeds for our garden also a line replacement for the clothes hoist ; but trying to find a plug for our bathroom wash basin was a calamity, searching we found the half dozen slots containing plugs various, after a few minutes of searching found what we thought would be OK, all of the variety of plugs were priced at $2-50oents , however the one we chose was a soli...

I slept well last night probably due to working in the garden and not having my Midday siesta, but after 8.5 hours I. had to rush to water the horse, Minnie our mog joins me for brekky as er indoors is down stairs doing the laundry, Minnie has raw meat every day  and bickies, she is a beautiful creature very agile and alert and is gradually becoming less feral . Shopped at Aldi today, although Coles is three minutes walk it is far more economical to drive a return trip of 22kays and gets us out more, while in Aldi we somehow became involved in a conversation with a wizened old bloke of 96 when we helped him find an article on the shelf, after a half an hour of listening to 'Charlie and the war years ' we were blocking the aisle and people were visibly annoyed we continued our shopping when the old guy reappeared saying he had been back to his car but forgot something., and I am concerned about my test in July when I am 87, the old guy is a cancerian, as was my ma an...

Most celebrities far from being penniless live in another world supported by doting and groveling fanatics who make some of their idols believe they are beyond the arm of the law and can do no wrong  Most of these offensive morons when pulled before the beak  usually plead ' a mental breakdown due to pressure of work and was the sole cause for their violent actions. It is rare for these persons to be awarded a custodial sentence and those who do usually serve their time in clink away from the general hoi poloi and are given and are able to receive comforts from out side their prison cell. Slick ambo chasers and lots of dosh spent on a host of lying testimonies from other high profile assholes usually get these people released from the slammer much sooner than the Joe blows and the down at heels. Serial offenders like the son of Melbourne's Moon Face and Patty; Matty the Batty can always come up with a session of violence to order when matters do not agree...

The Italian news paper La Republica reported Ex Hitler Youth member and leader of the Faith Industry Catholic sect of the archaic Christian Roman Church Pope Benedict XV1 has resigned after an internal investigation informed him (He was unaware)about a web of corruption blackmail and prohibited forms of sex  and drug activity in the Vatican precincts.. Three cardinals were asked by Big Benny(his nickname or dick name) to verify the allegations of dodgy financial activity and cronyism exposed by 'Vati Leaks'. Benny the pontiff was handed leather bound volumes containing the  map of the problems and those who were the so called 'Bad Fish'.  Red lidded cardinals are now vying for the prestigious privilege of wearing the fisherman's ring including Sydney's Cardinal Pell ( Pelly with the head of jelly). Is Cardinal Sin still around? Is Australia following a few European countries by soft pedaling the Australian Muslim Community, by allowing  the despotic and ar...

It was dry but windy and overcast on my way to our local shops which only takes three minutes for the average bloke to cover the distance, going without my stick was foolhardy, I sat down on the bench outside the lotto place; gathered strength and made it to the counter , better luck next time; nothing too unusual about that, then I had to get stuff for our 45 yr old fith sons moggies we are boarding for free until he gets settled 'Again', passed the woman collecting for legacy and said "No;" gave ten cents to the guy twanging the guitar, told him to go buy a bar of soap he replied " tight arse"I then sat next to another old guy on a bench who was reading about mad cow disease in Europe the lady collecting legacy Say's looks like you didn't see any of the wars in your life time otherwise you would contribute to legacy,." Nah Say's I, most of the recipients from waking are in the the clubs pissing up and playing bowls  all day then when...

Mothers and fathers are slaving in the home or working overtime to support the bone idle bunch of layabouts we call children, and Males are the worst culprits mostly school dropouts from sixteen year olds plus. it hurts more when looking back to an era that most people have forgotten , when at thirteen few options were available in the workforce on leaving school unless  your parents were wealthy and you were afforded an education befitting a well paid job or profession. myself on leaving  a charity boarding school at fifteen point five years and sent to the Royal Navy was not my idea for my future, but there was no option and to date the RN is paying approx 20 %. of my earnings.. A local study showed young adults  in NSW Australia and possibly all of Australia rely heavily from the support of their parents who in most case are stupid enough to allow their namby pambying of their bone idle offspring  to squeeze and bleed them dry.  A six month st...

Miserable day today, woke at 5 30; from the window all that could be seen was rain and more rain , Strange how running water makes one want to go, from the bathroom window I could see 'Ginger tom' looking wet and bedraggled by the shed lean to, the randy sod never gives up. Went back to bed - seemed the most sensible thing to do  woke again about 7 30 her indoors brought me the paper which was full of crap about thugby league, car sales and whats on if you wish to venture forth to the local club venues, after a modest brekky of cereal and tea, the weather being what it was like cool and very English sort of cricket test match weather and not wishing to go shopping the fridge produced a myriad of bits and pieces which were used for today's din din , a quarter of a chook left over from yesterday plus heaps of lean chopped bacon and six 45mm mushrooms a very large onion two carrots a stick of celery, two turnips the chopped stalks of the broccoli and a finely chopped t...

Understanding Islam by Greesh Sharma, Ph.D Here is a perspective by Dr. Peter Hammond. Dr. Hammond's doctorate is in Theology. He was born in Cape Town in 1960, grew up in Rhodesia and converted to Christianity in 1977. Adapted from Dr. Peter Hammond's book: Slavery, Terrorism and Islam: The Historical Roots and Contemporary Threat Islam is not a religion, nor is it a cult. In its fullest form, it is a complete, total, 100% system of life. Islam has religious, legal, political, economic, social, and military components. The religious component is a beard for all of the other components. Islamisation begins when there are sufficient Muslims in a country to agitate for their religious privileges. When politically correct, tolerant, and culturally diverse societies agree to Muslim demands for their religious privileges, some of the ot...

Within hours of the news that Tesco's 'all beef hamburgers' contained 30% horse meat, these quips hit the Internet : o I'm so hungry, I could eat a horse … I guess Tesco just listened. o Anyone want a burger from Tesco? Y ay or neigh? o Not entirely sure how Tesco are going to get over this hurdle. o Waitress in Tesco asked if I wanted anything on my Burger … so I had a £5 each way bet! o Had some burgers from Tesco for my tea last night … I still have a bit between my teeth. o A woman has been taken into hospital after eating horse meat burgers from Tesco. Her condition is said to be stable. o Tesco are now testing all their vegetarian burgers for traces of unicorn . o I've just checked the Tesco burgers in my freezer ... AND THEY'RE OFF . o Tesco now forced to deny presence of zebra in burgers, as shoppers confuse barcodes for serving suggestions. o Said to the missus, “These Tesco burgers g...

The Movie Remake of the Jules Verne schoolboy story is soon to start in Australia. ?. It is well known among people with a brain that the archaic distance titled a League  when converted into Miles will read, Three miles, So assuming some halfwit is going to travel 20,000 leagues, his converted distance would become 60,000 Miles. So if the distance between the Core of the earth being approx 7,500 miles and the shorter journey (not the Diameter) is only one Eighth of 20,000 leagues or 60,000 miles (see diagram) his journey would take him into outer space.                                                                       ...

Japanese massacred British military personnel both patients and staff of Hospital on 14 February 1942 before British Surrender Alexandra Military Hospital, Singapore, was meant for British military personnel from British Malaya, Singapore and the Far East. On 15 September 1971 the British handed the hospital to the Singapore Government. It is now called Alexandra Hospital. On 14 February 1942 Japanese Imperial Forces advanced through Kent Ridge down Pas Panjang Road to Alexandra Military Hospital. The British retreated west through the Hospital. They set up machine guns on the first and second floors to cover their retreat. A lieutenant carried a Red Cross brassed and a white flag to meet the Japanese. The Japanese killed him. Among the patients in the Hospital were a four Company force nicknamed the Plymouth Argyles who were survivors of the 'Prince of Wales' and 'Repulse' which were sunk by Japanese torpedo bombers off the coast of Kuantan, Pahan...

People in the UK are beefing on about the contents of their Lasagne and other dodgy meat products such as pies and sausages and the always a bit suss hamburger.. It seems Britain's Horse Meat scandal has backing from the Government and is advising people not to eat beef lasagne made in France and sold under the 'Findus'  brand due to the product containing  100% Horse meat. Two weeks ago, the food safety authority of Ireland had revealed up to 29 % of the meat content of some beef burgers was in fact Horse meat, while they also found pig DNA. The frozen burgers were on sale in most supermarket throughout Britain. The consumption of horse meat is quite common in France and neighbouring EU countries.  Makes one wonder how long this has been going on . Mind you I recall Sydney in the early seventies having a similar problem. Anyone remember this sing song slogan on local radio, "Hurry on down to Harty's  - Where the burgers are barbecued" , Harty's were n...

Some of the gibberish particularly when quoting statements made by persons they interview both astonish and irritate persons like myself and others with first hand knowledge of incidents wrongly explained. I refer to the article in the Express Advocate local central coast edition, where the story relating to the consummation of 70 years of marriage by a couple from Portsmouth England in their nineties now living up the road from me on the central coast of NSW Australia, a Mr & Mrs Bush.'The Advocate stated Mr and Mrs bush grew up in Portsmouth Mr bush served in the Royal Marines at Portsmouth and was in 1942 ( on the cruise ship Fiji during the battle of Crete ) in the mediterranean when it was sunk by German bombers . He survived this situation and his happy married life continues on to this day Read about it. Actually they married in the same church ( St Mary's) Portsmouth as my eldest son was baptised in 1956. Rosemary and I are approaching our sixtieth. Now the ...
