Describing Things In Canberra

@luke_ablett They have given us so much joy and pride.

@ElizabethKamel All good wishes for excellent care, stamina and luck

Saw my Oncologist and my cancer has become deeper in my chest (sternum and pec) and has spread to my liver so I’ll start chemotherapy again soon. Dr says I’m young, fit and otherwise healthy and other patients of hers are on same chemo for years so it’s not curtains for me yet.

@alicektg @MarkusMannheim This is the way

@DescribingIn @MarkusMannheim Hat, gloves, the whole enchilada.

Canberrans, please help me win/lose an argument. What do you call the CBD suburb?

@alicektg @MarkusMannheim Do you wear your smart going-to-town outfit?

@MarkusMannheim Town

We've raised $7,834 of our $10,000 target, thanks to Parker Coles Curtis matching your generous donations. Any amount donated helps women be safe and supported to solve their legal issues. Donate here: givenow.com.au/womenslegalcen…

@ajdlinux Dance like nobody's watching. Because they are all at home in Ringwood.

Hmm what to do in Melbourne at 7pm on a public holiday

It is a stunning Canberra day my friends… hope you can be out in it 💕

@LizDolphinfluff Almot

Today's round of head cold or hayfever seems particularly brutal.

Canberra weather: people who have booked their children swimming lessons in outdoor pools may need to save up for therapy bills

Canberra weather: the cat would like to mention that you should do something about this temperature. And also she would like to know why you have removed your gigantic flesh hot water bottle from under the dooona so she needs to rely on her own body warmth.

@GrogsGamut If Triple J steals the crown from Taylor Swift again, I say we riot in the streets of the national capital until Triple J is forced to apologise and also buy us all an ice cream.* Who is with me? Anyone? Anyone? * or a hot chocolate, weather dependent.

My #Hottest100

Man in a Maserati gives the proper wave when let into traffic.

@DrKate_Miller We don't call it bribery. We call it the anticipatory reward system.

Canberra weather: sheep graziers warning. I mean, really.

@AnnaVidot I always feel that We Built This City on Rock and Roll is the least appropriate song for our planned capital. Bless us.

Never did this one cos I worried it's a 'my weird brain' thing SONGS YOU DISLIKE BUT WILL LISTEN TO FOR ONE SPECIFIC PHRASE THAT GENUINELY ROCKS: Starship - We Built This City Generally blerg but the "Marconi plays the mumba/Listen to the radio" syncopated melody gives me LIFE

Each week for three years, I picked a category and you've given me your songs. Now it's your turn. For our Final Song Challenge Tuesday, give me A Song You Always Wanted to Nominate But It Never Quite Fit or A Song From A Category We Should Have Done But Didn't ... go. 💜

There's no industrial relations law permitting you to stay indoors listening to cheesy jazz Christmas carols, even if you do have severe hayfever and your nose is dripping liquid unpleasantness.

Canberra weather: aaawww yeah. Bit wet. *imperceptible raise of the chin no eye contact*

@ContrarCanberra 😯

@DescribingIn Best flowers in town are at Woden Cemetry. Go late afternoon and pick up what you need. The dead won't miss them. And you save a motza!

You know we are verily in a handbasket and approaching the outer regions of hell when you don't covet any of the flowers for sale at Whiffens.

@murrigellas It is the one true mango.

Breakfast time with #Murrigellas Look...the only mango is a Bowen mango (for those born in Queensland)...now known as Kensington Pride! Lord!
