About ten pelicans on the end of a pontoon at Mallacoota. Dark clouds and rain in the background.

Pelicans at Mallacoota. Rain on its way.

finally, been wanting to see the Sturt's desert pea somewhere other than a botanical garden or nursery.

It's beautiful, love seeing what low tide reveals.

About time I started writing again. Starting small.

Watching in outback pub WA. At least no opposition supporters here. And while typing this yet another point.

Jane Hume, your tiara is a bit too tight.
Straight out of cabinet. Shadow, that is.

Go Blues, watching in the outback, in the rain. TV failed with 11 minutes left. Came back to camp drenched. My first State of Origin, not sure why there aren't more injuries. I went blue because my bottle light is blue.

Gotta love camp book exchanges. When it's too windy to fish, a book is the way to go. Well into the Sam Neill one already.

I hope the worst passes quickly. Wishing you blue skies soon.

Town Beach, Exmouth

Full moon. It did hide behind the sea mist, so I mist the rise. See what I did?

Feetless little corella. Seems to have adapted well. Has been here at the camp ground for years.

Watching Tiges in remote WA pub, lots of noisy Eagle fans and me the line Tige. Dressed in my member shirt. #gotiges

Camping, where the 5 second rule blows out to 90 seconds, or more. Of course if it's toast and Vegemite and Vegemite down, it's a pick up and bin.

When camping, it is acceptable to use a fly swat at the breakfast table. 4 in one hit - winning. Even in a strong wind, there's still flies.

Feeling left out, I actually voted, absentee, in the electorate of Durak.
Wasn't many people giving out HTV cards, no queue, no cake stall, no sausage sizzle.
Actually the volunteers here were quite chatty with each other.
It'll be weird watching the count when polls still open here. #auspol

Why not have both. I certainly hope for both.

First time absentee
First time numbering above the line - at home I number all squares.
Senate paper, printed out absentee version was so small text, thank goodness went prepared with HTV senate emailed from my electorate. Needed magnifier they supplied.
No democracy snag available. #auspol

I've heard a term I had never heard before: Life Style Employment. People, usually backpackers, clean toilets for shit money because the place they work is near a NP.
Talk about rip off. Unions aren't welcome.

The appropriate amount of tomato sauce on chippies.

Possibly, or Emu Export.

Robodebt and all those cunts involved should be jailed. The emotional damage never ends. Will never forget my dealings in this. The pain has stayed. The damage is permanent.

Talk about extreme emotions in the game.
Listening in outback WA, anyone camped near heard Yellow and Black shouted many and loudly.
