You tease. For a minute there I thought it was a leaving thread.

Still a few days to officially go but, yeah, then it'll be another year consigned to memory.

Oh, I'll stick with roasted chicken breast rather than le coq thanks :yes:

Even though you're a rude a-hole I still hope you have a good Christmas. Just as I wish all the other rude a-holes here the same.

For sure, never mind the money I've brought back into the country either...
I owe a return tickets worth. Might as well buy a one way and carry on earning a decent bloody wage overseas with lower cost of living instead. Really regret going to uni.

And yup! Last Friday berthing in Picton. Such a cool vibe and general lack of assholes (other than me) here too.

Also, I agree with you about 2016. Like, my work year has been good, if a bit stressful at times, but fuck, David Bowie died which is just not cool. I couldnt't listen to his last album.... though I will again after 10 Jan 17.

Some people in the US are offended by aspects of the coverage of her death. The New York Times refers to her as Hollywood and Star Wars royalty. She was much more than that, she was a successful screen writer and a novelist.

Odd, all the news I have seen so far went into great depths about her.

You probably don't read as much as I do, I have the advantage of being retired and thus have more time - for the meantime?

TV1 news here started with the Hollywood Royalty, Star Wars thing just as the NY Times had. It's possible the NY Times lifted their game subsequently but I haven't checked yet. Later in the TV1 bulletin there was more detail (probably lifted directly from ABC as per usual) still, more was omitted than was mentioned. Star Wars clips are easier to illustrate a TV item with than mention of her mental health work. I woulda thunk screen plays should be easy to illustrate though.

Lazy journalism...lotsa that going on here too.
The phrase "Churnalism" is used to denote the lazy/cheap ways of "making media". One source types something up and then it is regurgitated by other media outlets, usually without fact-checking the article.

I note that Mrs Queen wasn't seen at some god-bothering occasion recently and was described as "poorly", "under the weather", etc.
Just a speculation that she might have popped her clogs and they are keeping it secret until 2017. Do the Tinfoil hatters have any suggestion here?

a stroke ?

young buck, it takes me a trips to the doctors, 2kg of sildenafil citrate and a magazine or two, ( the ones that are in a plastic bag on the top shelf )

mind you the doctor warned me about the side effects;

If you have an erection that lasts more than 4 hours, get medical help right away.
If it is not treated right away, priapism can permanently damage your old fella........ a hard on for 4 hours, sod the treatment, think how much the byatch will cost me ....one of us will be seeking medical help thats for sure .....

Sudden vision loss in one or both eyes can be a sign of a serious eye problems ......Im blind as a bat .....

Some people may also have ringing in their ears................... Im married, the noise is constant.

Some people may also have ringing in their ears................... Im married, the noise is constant.

I'm from the days of unsilenced race bikes, 2 and 4 stroke. I have a neat hole in my hearing covering roughly the frequency of an unsilenced 2 stroke twin...

Luckily it closely approximates the broadcast frequency from 'er indoors...

Personally I'm looking both ways crossing the road and being careful around machinery and 'lectrics - at least till the end of this dammned year.

You can have your David Bowie and your George Michael, but Cliff Michelmore and Ian McCaskill? How did that not make the news?
