Port Stephens Pearl

Eagerly waiting for my $100 voucher from @GladysB That buys a *LOT* of "Lunch Specials" at The Port Stephens Bowlo when we have our weekly village outings in the bus. I'll be up to my ears in Prawn Cocktails and Schnitzels for weeks. And maybe a sneaky shandy. 😊🦐💯👌🏻🍺

They do use the term "celebrity" quite loosely these days, don't they? Hopefully he can be replaced by someone wholesome, yet just a little bit saucy. Like Ugly Dave Gray.

😍

These chaps remind me of a musical interlude on The Two Ronnies in 1975. #qanda

Barnaby makes about as much sense as an ashtray on a motorbike. #qanda

Optimism? I'll tell you about optimism... Optimism is when you wake up in the morning, realise you haven't snuffed it in the night and whisper to yourself... "Hooray!" #qanda

Correct, Emma. However those CEOs on million dollar salaries have been topping up their bonuses with Jobkeeper payments too. Muppets. #qanda

Compasses are guaranteed not to work once you get into the depths of The Canberra Bubble. #qanda

Michaelia Cash. Nutty as a fruit cake. #qanda

That Pete Evans chap.... Bit of a nob, isn't he?

As my old work supervisor used to advise us way back when: "Bread and meat don't mix, Pearl! Work is work and leave all those other shenanigans for the back row of the cinema". A tad crude one feels, but it does have quite a ring of truth to it one feels. #qanda

Sigh. If you want something done properly, get a woman to do it. Simple. #qanda

Regarding Mr Joyce... As my dear old mother would have said: "Lower than a snake's hips, that man". #qanda

This is turning into Jerry Springer rather quickly. #Qanda

Oh no. Barnaby's on. Put it back on Midsummer Murders! Quick! #Qanda

Remote falls out of Clive's trouser leg, Cyril picks it up with a hanky and promptly changes the channel. #Qanda with the wonderfully handsome Hamish the Dish it is then. 😊

Sigh... So it's the usual Monday argy-bargy in The TV Lounge over whether we watch #Qanda or Midsummer Murders. Clive, who's rooting for Midsummer, has stuffed the remote down his trousers and is making "up yours" gestures, so it looks like Inspector Barnaby it is then. 🙄

Aaaaaaaand I'm back. Lost my phone. Turned out it was down the back of the sofa in the Residents' Lounge here at the Aged Care home. Shows how often they clean up in this place.

That's a delightful red hijab that Pauline is wearing tonight. Oh hang on..... #qanda

I'm pretty certain that Old Mate Bobby Boy wouldn't pass the psychological evaluation to get a spot in the aged care facility where I live. To be honest, that's quite a relief. #qanda
