Wanted " A Pruner for my garden!"

Details
Written by: Op-Ed Shaydee Lane

What can I say? A flippant email from Redhead resulted in a spike protein of love and caring and ended in hours of fun and laughter. 

All because she missed her " boy ".

Let me tell you the story.

Weeping endures for a night, but joy comes in the morning..(Psalm 30).

Written by: Op-Ed Malcolm Kirke

“Those great times we once had before the "world went mad". I wonder if we'll ever see them again?” 

Oh yes, we’ll see them again, but it will take time, and will involve a degree of ruthless dealing with certain people responsible for the foul miasma of personal misery, economic hardship and irretrievable loss to many people as well as to the country, severe psychological damage to many, adults and children alike, that has enveloped the world and its people like a choking cloud.

I remember when.....  New Zealand was 100% pure.

The last holiday I had was before the world went mad. It was to the deep south of New Zealand to places like Queenstown, The Catlins and Bluff. 
The highlight was a day trip to Stewart Island  , right at the bottom of the South Island of New Zealand.

Frozen Veges - from China?

Details
Written by: Op-Ed Guest Post

The ONLY Australian manufacturer of frozen Australian grown vegetables (Simplot Australia) is not far from closing because a number of the other well-known Australian brands have moved their plants to New Zealand in order to capture the Chinese vegetable market where they market via New Zealand to Australian tables (without the food being labelled specifically as Chinese) and Simplot is finding it hard to compete.

Written by: The PR Blog

It's the end of another week Downunder and all we have is, as Shirley Bassey sang so well, " history repeating itself. " 

The jerry can revolt in Canada has spurred people on throughout the world to gather together and unite and say " enough is enough. "

I have friends and acquaintances travelling to Canberra to join the 2022 equivalent of the Eureka Stockade.

Details
Written by: Op-Ed Guest Post
6 February 2022, is the 80th anniversary of the last letter that Sister Kath Neuss, an Australian Army Nurse in Singapore, wrote to her family in Australia. She started the letter by saying
 
"Guess you will be thinking I’ve gone up in smoke. There is plenty of it about”. 
 
Only 10 days later Kath Neuss was dead; cruelly executed on Radji Beach, Bangka Island on 16th February 1922..

The Massacre at Rajdi Beach - February 1942 - Lest We Forget

Details
Written by: The PR Blog

'So we marched into the sea and when we got out to about waist level they then machine gunned from behind."

The words of the sole survivor of the horrific massacre of  Radji Beach on Banka Island off the coast of Sumatra. 

On 16 February 1942, Japanese soldiers machine-gunned 22 Australian World War II Army nurses and killed 60 soldiers and crew members from 2 sunken ships. From the 22 Nurses shot on that day, there was only one sole survivor, Sister Vivian Bullwinkel.

Will be regarded heroes too

Australia - about to be plucked? Or is it already plucked?

Details
Written by: Op-Ed Monty

Is Australia ripe for the plucking?

Located down the bottom of the world, geographically isolated and with a small population, are we the perfect place for a takeover experiment?
A weak and spineless federal government; weak and leftist CCP supporting state governments and a population that is mainly contained in cities, are we sitting ducks on a pond and a perfect spot to conquer - without firing a single shot?

The World's Fastest Indian - brought to a standstill by red tape

Details
Written by: Op-Ed Ellan Vannin

Today marks the normal eve of the start of the 4 day Burt Munro Challenge in the deep south of New Zealand. Motorbike enthusiasts usually congregate to race and gather with fellow enthusiasts to honour the memory of The Worlds Fastest Indian. Also known as Burt Munro.

This year it has been cancelled. Covid strikes again. 

So while the event may have been cancelled, I think it is still worth celebrating the amazing man who dared to dream big and dream fast.

A Prince who fell from grace because of the sea? Or was it about politics?

Details
Written by: Op-Ed Shaydee Lane

Prince Andrew has been stripped of his honours and shunned by his family. Only his ex wife stands by his side. Andrew, or as I still choose to call him, Prince Andrew, is a war hero in my book. 

The media, the public and seemingly everyone have abandoned this man because he did something that many men have probably been guilty of: he had dubious mates and had a few bedtime romps with young women.

As a woman, I actually defend him. And I believe that he is a target of a political campaign and the bureaucracy have thrown him under the bus.

  1. Bragging rights and pillow fights: Surely, in a time of global crisis, there are more important things than who owns a cake?
  2. I remember..... when the winter Olympics were about soaring like an eagle
  3. Do you still trust your government? Trust is so freely given and so easily lost
  4. Sometimes the only way to freedom is to climb a mountain - in the jungles of Papua New Guinea 1942
