    Bucket Lists

    Who has a bucket list and what is on it. I don't officially have a list and want to write one. But it occurs to me that there are travel items (overseas and in Australia), there are cultural items, things that cost money and things that are free (not much is free :( ). Writing a list is...

    Greyhound racing to be banned in NSW

    Greyhound racing is to be banned in NSW from 1 July 2017. I have to admit I have nothing to do with the industry, and have no relatives that do. But it seems a very ballsy decision by the NSW Government. A lot of people will be out of work. And I suspect that many many dogs will be put down...

    X-Men - Apocalypse (spoilers)

    What do you do if you get a friend request from someone you really don't want to accept a friend request from, but know they will be really ticked if you decline it? That they'll really hold it against you for a long time. Edit: 2,400 messages. That took a long time!

    Visitors from the grave

    In the past 24-48 hours, both Luke and Eedz have posted. Plus a few more posts from Berries and Steve1700. The Mrs is back - and I suspect she was a Kenneller long before she was the Mrs. What's going on? I don't believe it's a pre-season build-up.
