… this is quite to the point downunder:

Julia responded with 😳 or similar; I responded with:
“I remember well. I was in Alice, put washing up along line, went back to the start and began taking down.”
8. Liz and Eva?
No brainer if you’re a boy. (Toods is asleep and Isilme has her craft day):
There’s a serious point to this item … compare that silly bint who had her hand blown off in Minneapolis yesterday, those blocking roads etc., the violent femmettes … campare to these two in this clip. Chalk and cheese.
Females get passionate about things, get locked into notions … we hope and should educate them young to latch onto good notions, such as with Liz and Eva, not the Wokeleft ordure, not mesmerised by bad boys, not 304s with body counts, not feminazis. Etcetera.
7. Toodles and Grifty
Toods writes: “I love Grifty! You may not be caught up with all the things going on with ‘those two’ creeps. But Unremarkelable is being her unremarkelable selfie and that Fuzzy One she is hitched to. Anyway…Grifty called her out regarding iconic cookies( biscuits) sold by a certain organization for girls unless of course if a boy( whatever that is) wants to join up, most likely.”

Quite enjoying this … blessed are the meme-makers, for theirs shall be the satisfaction of a job well done in cheering up the troops for a day. So far, I see her at Tuesday 1, Monday 16 to 20, in comments.
Comments on comments:
With my landlord hat on, sometimes it’s better not to transfer from HQ comments as the discussion is right there, neither is it important for me to stick my oar in, I just enjoy reading it, asking myself is there anything I need do here?
(0802) Morning all! We’re at the tail end of a full blown storm here, window blown out and wet floor but that’s about it, temp near freezing but meant to be 9C (48F) later. Storm is meant to pass by around 0900. Light coming up and looks an angry sky just now, wall to wall. Just wrote to Julia, after Toodles:
“Caught in a storm here, don’t know what the rest of the UK had, window blown out. Why did I not know about it until within it? No MSM here and X was in North American gear.”
Right, without giving too much away, we are in a pocket here, even different climate to a few miles away in town … so when you lot (UK) have a snow or storm, we have an idyll and vice-versa … not so much the snow. You can be under a few inches of the wet fluff, we have nothing but wind.
This has messed up the sleep pattern (storm started about 2200 last evening) but did sleep through most of it. I’ll venture out to check the house damage after it dies away. (0902)

Reader, you may wish to familiarise yourself with some names who repost items or even post …
Christine Easdale was the Reform cllr I think who resigned and is uncompromisingly of the politics of these pages and at OoL … far harder, more populist, inc. our armed forces, largely, short shrift with the lily-livered and preverts but at the same time, split on tactics. More on that in an upcoming post.
In this majority (I believe) are many currently Reform but who see no alternative (middling normies in deep shock are these Reforms-for-now), plus us who do deep dive a bit. Names include Donna Rachel (hardline anti-rape-gang, as a former victim), Jess Gill, Charlotte Gill, Wendy Patterson, Harry Rag, I’ll add more names later.
But I’m also friendly with these middling, mainly southerners, e.g. Sandy Tregent (full blown love Nigel Reform, Suffolk, otherwise sane), Jen, more names later but including the empire building “new journo, pay to subscribe” types like Dan Wootton, Nick Dixon, Father Calvin … don’t know much but they make the right GB type noises, like Fox in the States, Hannity etc. Question mark patriots I call them.
Golden rules for me, red flags, include substack type single column, big important journo types, buy me a coffee types, choose your level of subscription to me. Slick presentations are alarm bells, also opacity as to origins.
One name on the “sound, good people” list imho include Vicky, usually reposting … if I see her name, I almost always read what she’s reposted. She was full-on UKIP in the old days, felt betrayed like most of us, TBP, initially Reform, then Rupert, not so much Ben but respect due. Tommy’s not a dirty word but all the same … careful of the agenda. Israel? I loved September 13th last year, done well by Tommy and backers. The raped girls are usually pretty good, politically.
Donna above is “take no prisoners anti gang rapist bstds” … a good girl but hard. Our Roobee is a good girl, ditto our Julia … some find her a bit “hang em” high, plus of course Leggy, Longrider, similar.

a) The reason Iranian protesters are burning mosques, is not blind hatred, we are not Palestinians. It has a concrete, practical reason, and there is a very important lesson in it for you in the West….
b) French Members of Parliament approved Article 1 of the proposed law (PPL) on Monday, January 26, aimed at banning social media access for minors under 15.
c) The right-wing Austrian Freedom Party (FPÖ) is calling for an immediate end to all aid from Austria to Ukraine….
d) Instead of being ‘Off Piste’, these skiers will be ‘Pisted up to the eyebrows’. Three Maltese nationals suspected of trafficking nitrous oxide….

Time for a break from all the awful out there. Yes, as for the usual fayre, we’ll be back to the hardhitting after I can get a second sleep in, crashed early, had to check a friend’s news.
It was Andy I was thinking about but at least it’s repairs and he has an interim roof and sustenance … nice to see blogmother Toods comment and the boys drop in too. My friend’s daughter just had good medical news, another daughter is about to have a baby, also IYE health, watching Steve, nice to see MD and others drop by … the tavern motif is a nice one.
On X, a fellow styling himself Vic (Meldrew) also has a local tavern for real, gives the pub perspective, plus quite a few ladies drop in to excoriate Them but at the same time have some banter … last evening, a gal from Cronulla beach in Sydney and so it goes on.
Does anything online mean anything? Tell that to Iranians being slaughtered. Certainly the devils’ business. The Minnesota biz … seems Trump or offsider gave the hard word to demon Walz. And so it goes on.
Yes, I believe it does mean something. And in turn, staying up with the news on this and that does help, imho. When you drop a few lines or even more, others do read you. MMutR yesterday … I said he probably didn’t see Wogan, Trump etc., being off on a mission. He’d seen it (ha ha). Nice. Plus there’s a little thing going at the other sites, each in its own way. Plus the blogrounds each of us make.
Yes … nice. It does mean something. It’s necessary that if you weren’t specifically mentioned, you’re still part of it, DM and DAD. Saw DM at, of all places, C@W yesterday. I need to write to Isilme, a few more. You have your rounds to do. All have your own aches and issues. As Roob said to me … care to share? I did … tales of penguins (I’ve had a weird life, 50/50, the good 50 was excellent).
Downunder, there’s been flash flooding near to Geelong:

Yes, it’s the end of the summer hols down there, at least they had some hols at least. Meanwhile, rain lashing down on panes here, neighbour next door home from work, I need to crash again, washing taken away from heaters.
Have a good one, get through the early morn, prayers for those needing them. Health good here. Cheers, chaps and chapesses.

This is from the GB News report via Steve:


“Laura Hunt has been murdered in a most grisly way, a shotgun blast to the face as she answered her apartment door. Dana Andrews as Detective Mark McPherson is assigned to the case and he’s got a good list of suspects to work from in this up close and personal murder.
Laura Hunt hung out with some real characters. Dana Andrews has a good group to choose from. There’s Vincent Price who was to marry Laura, a worthless playboy who spends his life as a permanent party guest. There’s Clifton Webb as the epicene critic and noted wit who was a kind of sponsor for Laura into society. There’s Judith Anderson as Laura’s sophisticated aunt who has a yen for Price. There’s even Dorothy Adams as Bessie, Laura’s lesbian maid who is carrying a titanic torch for her ex-employer.
Andrews very patiently and methodically goes through the suspects. In his way he’s as officious and annoying as Lieutenant Columbo on television. But he does get to the truth. Of course there’s one very big surprise for him during the course of the investigation.
Gene Tierney is Laura and she was a beauty in her day. Man or woman, who wouldn’t be crushing out on her. This film was the first one that got Dana Andrews any real notice from the critics. And of course Clifton Webb made a screen debut in this after a long career on Broadway. Webb got an Oscar nomination for his role of Waldo Lydecker as a Best Supporting Actor, but lost to Barry Fitzgerald for Going My Way.
David Raksin’s musical theme for this film is one of the great ones ever done for the cinema. So popular did it prove that Johnny Mercer wrote a lyric for it after the film came out. At the time people like Frank Sinatra and Dick Haymes and a host of others rushed to record it.
I guess you could classify Laura as a kind of sophisticated noir police drama. It’s dialog will leave you begging for more. It’s not much in the way of mystery because about a third of the way through you will realize at the same time Andrews does who the murderer is, maybe even before Andrews does. That doesn’t matter though because Laura is entertaining every step of the way.”
The story of the making of the film was high drama itself … plus the story of Gene Tierney.
