A random question. Does anyone living in the east and south east of Sydneyknow any shops that still have Paul Newman Salad Dressing?

We do take technology for granted. I’m on a plane heading from London to Singapore, at 40,000 feet and sending messages via wifi to England…and anywhere if need be. ✈️ 📱 🌍

We drove to Dublin Airport today and passed through some interesting places. Then Aer Lingus to London, where we are now, before Singapore Airlines taking us home. Plenty of great times and stories.

My teams, @SydneyFC , @WestHam and @CricketAus all lost yesterday but I had a big win as well. I now have a 2nd daughter-in-law which means plenty of Irish relatives. A big afternoon and evening, and a slow Sunday morning in Waterford! 🇮🇪 💒

In Leap, County Cork, Ireland. An omen? This place is legendary for Halloween decorations. @CricketAus

This sculpture in Porto, Portugal, is made from rubbish. Quite a nice rabbit really! @SSFCRABBITOHS

How long is this session? It feels like it has lasted forever! Maybe I’ve missed something. @SEN_Cricket @collinsadam @beastieboy07 🏏

I find it very interesting still to see the regular police presence in both Spain and Portugal. It’s not excessive, just a few every now and then positioned on streets with the occasional police car driving around. It’s better than sitting in police stations doing paperwork!

If you or any of your friends visit Lisbon, make sure you go to Downunder by Justin Jennings. It’s a wonderful restaurant run by Aussie Justin and his Portuguese wife, Sofia. The food is amazing. google.com.au/goto?url=CAESW…

Some posts are so bad that I wonder why I’m reading them. I then discover that it’s because someone I follow has reposted it. It’s a dilemma! I can’t believe what some see as amusing when it’s really just pathetic.

A cafe called Melbourne Lane in an alleyway in Faro, Portugal. Apparently the owner loved living and working in Melbourne. I thought Victorians may be interested. @MervHughes332 @bowlologist 😊 🏏 ☕️

It’s the 13th day of October at home in Oz. My late father loved sharing his birthday with @IanThorpe. Happy birthday, Ian! 🏊‍♂️ 🎂 🎈

It’s the morning of 12 October here in Seville, Spain. I’m thinking of all affected by the 2002 Bali bombing murders. Still awful to recount 24 years later. @Coogeedolphins 😢
