I’ve finally made the podium! I’m so excited and honoured to have won the silver prize 🥈in the thriller/horror feature category with PLAYDATE. Thanks so much @PAGEawards 😃

@CC68891975 Does anyone remember those sausage-meat-things-on-sticks in the shape of chicken legs that you would get from the butcher? I loved them as a kid.

I’m watching a video about the 70s Mums and what they cooked for dinner. Some you might remember 1. Savoury mince on toast 2.Lamb chops with three veg.(boiled potatoes, peas, carrots) 3.Tuna Mornay 4.Corned beef, white sauce 5.Rissoles and gravy. 6. Curried sausages

@BazRees @IPhillips79 I obviously need to watch it again!

@Ms_L_Simpson @IPhillips79 As I remember it she was found by an old guy who mined opals. He nursed her back to health and gave her some opals that paid for the plastic surgery?

Return To Eden (1983 mini-series) Australia's wealthiest woman, Stephanie Harper, is thrown into a crocodile pit by cheating husband...she survives but presumed dead, has plastic surgery, becomes a supermodel & plots revenge on evil husband! 😂Preposterous but CLASSIC TV! 😂❤️

@ThoughtCrimes80 Soulless

Never experiencing Tinder dating might be the biggest flex of my life. 💪🏼💔 This looks miserable. ☹️

Because women's rights have all but been thrown away by the "progressive" left.

@heyitsmeCarolyn Aging is normal. No one can look like they did in their 20s and 30s a good 40 years later.

1980s actresses you won’t recognize today!

@FondOfBeetles I apologise to the table if I bump into it.

I’m British. I say “thank you” to automatic doors.

Australia needs a literary festival organised by people who love literature, where writers talk about writing and readers talk about books.

Objectively, he truly is the least fuckable man that’s ever existed.

Gorgeous Yellow-tailed Black Cockatoo spotted on my morning walk ❤️

My favourite place (or one of them). I generally hate anyone breaking into song in a movie, but enjoyed Wicked. About to watch ‘Wicked: For Good’. 🪄🧙

Beautiful day laying under the trees watching son #1 play cricket. Lots of bees 🐝 buzzing overhead and a pair of cute baby galahs wandering near me.

I went out for lunch today to a posh private club with a group of producers. I noticed they had all placed their white napkins on their laps. I tried to casually do the same, but accidentally put my fist down on my fork and sent it catapulting across the room.

@MikeBoaks I’d love to! I need to find a Kate to write with.

@Ms_L_Simpson yeah we've really got into it I can totally see you writing something like this!

🔥 🔥 🔥

@MikeBoaks I watched it as soon as it came out because I knew Beck Cole had directed some episodes. Also because it was created by the two Kates. The whole cast is great, but Madeleine Sami is awesome.

@Ms_L_Simpson I'm up to ep 5, funny I was going to message you to see if you'd seen it!
