@JonDeeOz we lost Sprocket the spaniel almost a year ago-- we planned his burial in the Blue Mts BTW and had a full blown ritual. It was fun and made the grief easier to manage

Dear sweet Jack is really unwell. He’s been such a wonderful part of our life for nearly 15 years. It is going to be unbearably sad to say goodbye to him 💔

@Peter_Fitz I’d go for a natural burial a shroud not a coffin and no emissions with gas fired cremation hard to find but available even in Sydney basin. We buried mother in law in Lismore in one surrounded by nature

If you wanted a respectful, quiet funeral for a beloved family member, but didn't want to spend money on shiny coffins that were to be burnt anyway, and assorted bells and whistles, who is best in Sydney, please? Asking for friend. Thank you.

This is a classic example of 24 days of red tape (delay) … Businesses who want to participate in the Seniors Card program are required to 1) fill-out and submit this form 2) wait up to four weeks (24 days) to get approval to join the program 🤦

Pleased to release our annual PHIIA member survey tinyurl.com/fx5kddjf Specialist private health insurance comparison services have again accounted for selling almost a quarter of the sector's policies, which in the last financial year totalled 834,000.

What's our heritage worth? The almost theatrical life and death of a grand old lady played out on the stage of Sydney Harbour and my very small part in her story. I was a bit player in the saga but she played a leading role in my life smh.com.au/national/nsw/t…

@captainbrown @CentParklands No, as many bikes, mountains and otherwise, observed off-road in the park. Most piloted by grown-ups but as no (thankfully yet) licence requirements to ride I can only add 'go for it'

@fleurbrown The story gets even better but only if you prefer great yarns to happy endings snopes.com/fact-check/fra…

At 40, Franz Kafka who never married and had no children, walked through a Berlin park when he met a girl who was crying because she had lost her favourite doll. She and Kafka searched for the doll unsuccessfully. Kafka told her to meet him there the next day THREAD 1/5

@FoxyLoxy Only way is to join the party and drive change from within!

How do I stop UAP texting me?

ID warning: Police blitz Bondi this AM checking IDs to ensure you are not more than 10kms from home. Polite officer asked for mine understand why but I felt very uneasy at the precedent. Russian sounding middle aged man became very agitated lucky to avoid arrest
