Did they pinch it off your Insta? You get royalties for that?
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

They can if you tag them, I did, or you send them in to the tv station or for channel 7 they have a Facebook page, I got so many comment and likes on the channel 7 page, even the page itself and they didn’t use it, so I lost hope and bang, they gave it a bit Of air time! I’m happy!!! Not interested in royalties, I might start a page one day, right now I just want yo learn and have fun with it

Hey Jo that’s pretty cool didn’t see it sorry I don’t watch that news station.

Had enough doom and gloom planning for an African holiday next year - who knows what will happen but the planning is fun and brings back so many good memories and hopefully more to come - roll on 2021!!!

Celebrating Easter tomorrow.

Won't be the same as other years, as I would have been at church this evening at midnight but at least I'll get to celebrate with those closest to me.

Excuse my ignorance but what would you have been celebrating at Church at midnight? What religion? I thought Easter church goings were Friday and Sunday?
Cheers big ears

Greek Orthodox.

Saturday midnight = Sunday.


"Eastern Christianity recognises a different date for Easter because they follow the Julian Calendar, as opposed to the Gregorian calendar which is widely used by most countries today."

Started a new job this week. Relocated from the ED and Police work to Mental Health Triage on my request. Wow, I was aksed when I would like my break: I haven't had a designated break in over 19 years FFS. Nice suppotive environment & while busy less insanely busy and less unrelentingly pressured than the previous work envirmonent. I've gotta give credit where credit is due: my manager who has some micromanagment control issues was highly & immediately responsive to my request to move.

Much better shifts too.

Back to riding to work in the last week a 17 km round trip. Takes about 50 minutes one way & I need to take another 30 minutes to park the bike in the workplace bike cage, get temperature tested, unload some gear, undress, shower, dress then start so all up taking about 90 minutes one way.
