DEMOCRACY MANIFEST: A family tradition - eating a succulent Chinese meal whilst watching Antony Green call the election. #succulentchinesemeal #democracymanifest #auspol #tradition

Total props to Newcastle East Public School for having a Vegie #democracysausage so @eeveebeth.bsky.social could taste democracy manifest. #vote #auspol

#democracysausage: I love a sunburnt democracy/ the lands where freedom reigns/ of voting in the sunshine/ and not whinging when it rains/ I love snags for education/ I love the camaraderie/ this manifests democracy/ and my vote speaks for me. #vote #auspol #sunburntcountry

SEVERE WEATHER: Christ Church Cathedral Newcastle is CLOSED for the afternoon of Sunday 27th April 2025, due to severe weather. #newycathedral

24 March 1879: death of the Rt Revd William Tyrrell, aged 72. First Bishop of Newcastle 1847-1879. Local saint and hero! #anglican #146years Credit for attached portrait @tyroleanlass.bsky.social; my photos: his grave, and the plaque at St Andrew's Cathedral Sydney.

WANT TO COMPLAIN ABOUT TRANSPHOBIC AND RACIST ADVERTISING? You can make a complaint to the ACCC, and to the Australian Electoral Commission. You can also call the paper directly and complain - but remember it's not the fault of the person who answers the phone :-)

Hey @smh, I am disgusted and appalled by the #racist ad on your front page today. #racism has no place in this country, nor on your masthead. When will we see an apology? #trumpetofhate

PRE-LENT VACAY WITH THE BOWYERS: Our week away barely started, and already, Ladybird book GOLD. Is this a sign of things to come? #ladybirdbooks

BAZAAR FOR UKRAINE: Such a fun afternoon at the Bazaar for Ukraine. And met up with this total legend too! Bazaar continues Sunday 9/2/25 - don’t miss a bargain, and support children with cancer in Ukraine. #childhoodcancer #ukraine #shoplocal

Thinking of @austanglican.bsky.social today, the busiest of all Australian Anglican days.

Such good games.

What do you call two simultaneous test wins? Australian Cricket #cricket #TestCricket

Wondering how many other cricket tragics like our family are frantically flicking between the test telecasts. @icelandcricket.bsky.social #cricket

"January, 31st, Monday: Installed in my Cathedral Church on my birthday..." 31 January 1848: On his 41st birthday, the Rt Revd William Tyrrell (1807-1879) is installed in the old Christ Church Newcastle as first Bishop of Newcastle. #anglican #177years Photo credit: @tyroleanlass.bsky.social

31 January 1997: The Cathedral Church of Christ the King, Newcastle re-hallowed after the completion of repairs to earthquake damage. #anglican @tyroleanlass.bsky.social
#28years And 149 years since the installation of William Tyrrell on the same spot (and his 190th birthday!)

CONCLAVE: Go see it. That is all.

Beautifully filmed, magnificent actors, wonderful film.

And bonus W B Yeats quote.

Christ Church Cathedral Newcastle rests on the unceded sovereign lands of the Awabakal and Worimi peoples. We pay respects to Elders past and present. We repent of sins past and present against First Nations peoples. We are committed to Makarrata.

Cricket Commentary: “Henriques swings lustily.”

Me: “And with good courage”.

My family: 🦗🏏

START THE YEAR SLOWLY: January Sunday nights at 6.00pm at Christ Church Cathedral Newcastle NSW. Why rush into the new year? #anglican #slowchurch #newycathedral

Having watched the Youi carpool ad too many times, enquiring minds want to know how five children are legally seated in the car? #youi #bbl14 #enquiringminds

It’s only a few hours into the new year but Glenn Maxwell has already taken the catch of the year. Incredible! #bbl #cricket

That moment when the ABC Radio coverage of the cricket decides to do a live cross to Bay 13, and Bay 13 does not disappoint. 🫣 #oops #nodelaywhenlive #bay13 #abccricket #cricket

Simply having a wonderful Christmas time. @eeveebeth.bsky.social
