Watching people in the park next door.

Couple had a 2-3 year old on some kind of balance bike that seemed to be battery powered, another couple came up and 3 adults tried to explain to a 6-7 year old girl how to ride it. After all the lectures she pushed off with her feet, rolled 1 metre and got off, then 1 of the adults decided to show her how it was done, got on the bike and took off downhill, followed by the screaming 2-3 year old "owner" of said bike. To say the kid wasn't happy would be a massive understatement. Caught up with the adult, grabbed his shirt with one hand and absolutely shrieked at him.

Adult got off bike, tried to reason with 2-3 year old (which is as effective as telling a drunk adult to calm down) with zero success.

Very funny to watch.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

There are reasons why:

Swinburne and Latrobe didn't merge to become the Swinburne-Latrobe University of Technology.

Swinburne and Holmesglen didn't merge to become the Swinburne-Holmesglen Institute of Technology.

and Curtin University said NO to a campus in the Northern Territory.

And if any one did see this, as usual a current affair were less than honest.

The factory is teddys, and they owe him 6 months rent.

I did see that the other night T.P. My initial reaction was that Teddy is in a bit of strife.
