The Great Ocean Road

There are places in the world which are very special and we miss them … long after we miss other aspects, even the football, the gang. I have such places too … some here but as I’m here … they’re still here.

There are places which were here but decades later, they’ve died or have been overrun by hordes, even by modernist “architecture”. There are places which were special with someone special.

One such place for me is the Surf Coast Road and Great Ocean Road:


The SC road links Geelong and Torquay on the map, the GOR goes west once you hit the shoreline, which looks like this:

Source: Parks Victoria

That’s looking west by the way, rock formations called The Twelve Apostles. Bell’s Beach is a famous surfing beach. Right … so when I saw this below in my inbox, first thought was oh no … but as it’s not the GOR itself, just the approaching SC road, it’s not as dangerous.

Why? Why not so dangerous? Well have a look at the topography above and below.


The entire lower section is heavily forested, which means fires in summer, esp. with leftist arsonists. Now, travelling west, there are those cliffs on your left, then a narrow strip you’re on, along which the GOR runs (the B100 you’ll notice on the ggl map) … a fairly rustic B route.

The steep hill to your right (going west) runs alongside the road, heavily forested … burning forested. There’s no, as in Maui, stepping onto the beach and into the water … there are those cliffs, remember. You getting the idea?

And in summer, there are resort places attracting Melbourne’s bright young things, e.g. Lorne Hotel. Were there to be a forest fire dot dot dot …

Back to the map. If you follow the top edge of the pic west or to your left, then head north-west, you eventually hit South Australia and Adelaide, having travelled through the rich farming land of the Western District, where you’ll find people like the Rupert Lowes of the world.

Were you to head north along the right edge of the pic, and keep heading north, eventually you hit Melbourne across the water.

Were you to turn 180 and head back south, then keep going, you’d hit Tasmania … eventually … if you didn’t drown.

Were you to follow the lower edge of the map, the pic, east, rightwards, then turn south-east … you’d eventually hit New Zealand.

Notta lotta people know that oop norf ’ere.

15. This has always been so in primitive, godless societies

… where Europeans of a type settle … such as Belgian villages where most are into it, or on Pitcairn Island , Vanuatu and so on. (Allegedly.)


14. More on the rape gangs


13. That exchange with Deryl below in Tue 12 was about this


12. What’s as near to a free press as we can get?

While the big news over here is the rape gangs finally going viral … and methinks I’ll run each new item separately, not all together … across the pond is mainly Iran/Israel.

Laura Loomer has this in common with Pammy … they’re doing what they do out of near adoration of Donny … that’s a very female trait to show such loyalty … thus they are not as enamoured of MAGA itself, which is for the people. Emerald is classic MAGA … look, she says, Trump made all these noises about trusting him during his first term, we voted for him, so where are the arrests?

The Woke, Demons and RINOs know this full well and exploit it for division. My comment to Laura L was:


Nole reposted this:


Indeed, same here. The MSM? I rely on chaps such as Andy or chapess Julia to brave the legacy media for anything worth reporting but it’s a big tent, essentially antiWoke on my X timeline, plus social in general:


Why so many ladies? Well, girls are far more responsive … the chaps tend to come in blasting, which is also needed, plus chaps tend to deep dives. As you’d expect me to say … both are vitally needed … you can’t have the lads without the lasses and vice-versa, it’s simply unnatural.

All the ladies are adorable? Not in the least … about half are human flotsam:


… or else just stupid, mental or similar … just like the men, e.g. Blair, Brown … or evil, like Stella Creasy.

All I’m saying is we need to sort out which are which asap and add the good ones to our network. Are we going to fall out? Yes. We are the sum of our policy positions in total … of course we’ll disagree, but should leave it at that … unless someone steps so far towards the dark, sinister side that it becomes impossible for us.

And that’s our future afa I can see.

It was to watch Chanel more than the item:

7. Steve mentioned

a. Powerful Explosions Rock Tel Aviv and Haifa as Iran Strikes Israeli Cities in Overnight Barrage

If Nethan the Yahoo is a bad player (turned off iron dome etc.) maybe he’s done that again … maybe the idea is for both to be wiped out … maybe the whole theatre is sayt annic. Just a thought.

b. “Pixie Balls-Cooper is on her feet lecturing honourable members on the Casey Report and what we is gonna do ’bout it! I say bollocks, the vast majority of this ‘group-based child exploitation’ took place in Labour controlled areas. Back when I started my soldiering was the first time I’d met lads from all over England. One of them was from Rochdale and like the others I asked him what it was like there. He said it was ok when he was very young but lately the *akis were taking over parts of the town. As an aside he said there’d been trouble with some of them going after local girls. I asked what happened and he smiled and said “We beat the crap out of them; broke bones, put ’em in hospital”. I asked about the police and he again smiled and said “Oh, they were fine with it, one of the girls was the daughter of a local copper”. This conversation took place in 1981.”

26. This one shook me up a bit

… and not just for attraction reasons:

Point is … that was no lie on my part … of course I’d put them up for a short while … maybe two years.

25. Interesting thought, this

… which MMutR I were discussing too.


The way I see it … the Wokerati comprise:

  • The old lefty boomers from the 60s, esp. women … purple hair is a sign
  • Violent left males of all ages
  • Young brainwashed females who are total loonies

Can’t call the young “non-tech-savvy” but the old left … definitely. The MSM and some sort of boomer memory of obedience keeps all of them locked into the mindset.

What about us … all of our lot, whether War gen, Boomer, Gen X or Gen Zee … why are we so in tune with one another on right and wrong? Male and female on our side … judging by all the tweets etc. Across nations, whilst still supporting our culture, heritage? How can we, across that wide demographic range, come to roughly the same conclusions?

I feel zero affinity with the Wokerati or politically naive normies … I feel great affinity with this subset of the west which seems to see through things. Puzzling.

Review:

”1929’s “The Greene Murder Case” was the second of three early talkie Paramounts starring William Powell as Philo Vance, coming six months after the first, “The Canary Murder Case,” eight months before the third, “The Benson Murder Case.” Storywise, it’s perhaps the best of all three, while technically it’s a huge improvement on its predecessor, the pacing agreeable, the acting more natural, and Powell again joined by District Attorney Markham (E. H. Calvert) and Sgt. Ernest Heath (Eugene Palette). Also returning as a different character is young Jean Arthur, in a far more substantial role than her cameo in “The Canary Murder Case.” The Greene household, consisting of bedridden matriarch and four offspring, are beholden to the will of the late patriarch Tobias Greene, requiring everyone to remain under the same roof for 15 years before the estate can be divided evenly between them. One dark midnight, both Chester (Lowell Drew) and Ada (Jean Arthur) end up shot (Chester fatally), but the robbery motive piques the curiosity of Philo Vance, particularly as the two shots were fired minutes apart. Always intrigued by the psychological aspects of each case, Vance has his hands full under this roof, where Tobias kept an extensive library on the history of crime. He may wind up solving this one by having only one suspect left! Florence Eldridge (Mrs. Fredric March) is an assured scene stealer, but her doctor boyfriend is played by dull as dishwater Ullrich Haupt (hard to believe that two women would be interested in him). Powell is far more involved here, and his amusing rapport with Eugene Palette never goes over the top. Struggling in a role few actresses could credibly pull off, beautiful Jean Arthur was still an unknown quality at the time, but remained one of Powell’s favorite leading ladies (later seen to best advantage in “The Ex-Mrs. Bradford”).”

*Law enforcement appears to have assassin suspect Vance Boelter in custody in a field in Sibley County. According to radio traffic, he was tracked into the woods. When a drone flew overhead he put his hands in the air and walked toward officers in a SWAT vehicle.

*Multiple sources say he was spotted near a residence in Green Isle and began running down a driveway into the woods, wearing all black with a backpack. At one point he was tucked in the fetal position and then began to army crawl until he eventually stood up to surrender.

AKH theatre on Monday

 

JH finds a review to add below:

“I had the relatively unusual experience of watching this dramatisation very shortly after listening to Ian Carmichael’s reading of the audiobook of “Clouds of Witness”, and was struck by the virtual absence of departures from the source material. As this is rare for TV/film adaptations, I do consider it worth mentioning. As with at least one other reviewer here, I found Lady Mary Wimsey’s portrayal distracting at best, annoying at times, and unsure whether to blame actress or director, so will split the difference by mentally sharing responsibility between the two. Apart from the apparent age difference between Ian Carmichael and Lord Peter (which he himself notes on occasion), his performance of the role is extremely good, owing in large part, I suspect, to his familiarity with the source material and long championing of this series, of which I only recently learned. There is much to be said for labors of love, and clearly, this is one. The DVD set also includes “The Unpleasantness at the Bellona Club”, plus an interview conducted in 2000 with Carmichael and additional information about his career and that of author Dorothy L. Sayers.”
