As an Aussie i was disappointed watching the Bairstow decision unfold live. But then i thought it evened up Starc's catch not being allowed. What it did do was make for the most exciting hour of cricket i've seen in a long time.

Geelong have spanked the Swans in last 2 encounters,will wait on the team lists for that one. On a side note ashes on this arvo.

Yes sorry for the rant gents,had only had 2 beers when i wrote it so it did hit a nerve. Back to the footy???? Tips of the week,get an eye on GCS, Dockers and Hawks.????

Just watched the hall of fame,good night till Choco Williams came on. What is wrong with people today,if you want to get into politics do it. Don't cower behind a profile,no wonder Australia is a mess and all respect to Choco lost.

I haven't seen one,only export prices. It's normally a trip to the local ricemillers for me who have the prices on a board inside to keep updated.

Keep your chin up Owl. Doesn't matter how long you have been here there are situations that make us feel isolated at times. Luckily i enjoy my own company in those times???? I'm sure you will engineer the problem out. After 18 years of trying to teach budgets(mrs still won't put pen to paper) i thought i was there,mrs always comes in a month short but i give the yearly budget upfront. This year i decided to give an extra months worth to remove the shortfall. Low and behold her daughter wanted a new motorbike so mum loaned her the money,now she is in a panic to get it all paid back by the end of the year so the bills can be paid. At the end of the day it's damage control.????

Nice work Will picking the card. And running away like Rob DeCastella into the distance.

Time for the Dees to bring back Benny Brown and straighten them up. Not sure how they lost last night but they did.

Seems to be the way of the world these days Alex. Passion has been replaced with Compassion. Barry was before my time,just a young kid when he was at his peak,remember a news article when he got run over by his tractor on the farm and nearly lost his leg.

Hi KS Thanks for the pictures. How tall are your posts and how far in ground(cemented?) And what spacing between posts did you use(5 metres?) Lastly did you make a spinning jenny to roll out the wire.

My family is blessed with the ability to talk through walls.????

Hi KS Yes a few late nights watching the cricket,should be a good series if the English summer holds. I'm a while away from animals yet,just started ripping down the old fences and working out prices on ringlock,chain link(different styles and heights) and galvanised 2 inch pipe. I think for memory it's a bit over 3 kilometres. I know electric would be cheapest way and will probably run a couple of strands but want something robust as well if power goes out and bio security. I will take a visit to local cow market now i know its new location. A guy in the village had a goat on his pickup the other day and said he bought it from the market so intrigued to see what's available. We just finished planting the last of the rice yesterday,a bit late but see how it goes. Decided just to plant Kor Kor 6 as the premium on Jasmine hasn't been great last couple of years with lower yields than KK6. Cassava is one of the few crops i've never tried,it is fairly popular around here although sugar is still number 1. Today started green manuring in back paddock(with offset disc),normally would just use the slasher but was rotovating the other day and pto shaft came off and it snapped the PTO drive spline on tractor,that's the 3rd time it's happened over the years????.

Well done Rip,great tipping.

Been a while,away again for 3 and a half weeks and came home to no sunn hemp,all gone. Time to re fence the place with electric and get a couple of animals. Cut and carry is working well for the locals.

Jeez,Cats looked a million bucks then Dangerfield injury in marking contest. No Dangerfield no Cats. Can put a pencil through them for the rest of the year. Don't be to hard on the Kangas Alex,now we have a Magoo's we have extra players to choose from and their form is good. Something to look forward to in about 3 years time. Will is getting away at the top of the leaderboard. Ashes start tomorrow.

Think it's be confirmed on here before 4 metres is the maximum depth. Any deeper requires mining license but check with your local mayor.

Back in LOS and tipping back to normal.????

Not sure much has changed. I had to pay a donation to change stamps in passports earlier this year. The amount was up to me,considering it took longer than to do a marriage extension i thought 200 baht was about right.

Human behaviour,i'm surprised Collingwood's Ceo,coach and captain left their press release not condoning it till after the game. Sydney as well,after all they make public announcements during the breaks in a game. Car registration nobanter at the footy,you have left your lights on.

Be a boring day at the footy without passionate rank and file supporters. Take it back to the source,a free kick to Daicos and it doesn't happen. 4 umpires decided to get their revenue ticket books out and make the league $17,000. As a result Buddy paid the price,one for being a superstar and the other which most forget is he has probably given away more rough contact free kicks than any other forward in the games history. Great for the media though.

Well done Chooks and Ozzy.

Thank you for the link.????

Been away a few weeks. Nice to be back and the stifling heat and smoke haze gone. Was a little worried not getting a decent rain for 3 weeks after planting some sunn hemp but managed 30mm earlier this week and has germinated ok. Lots of weeds but should outgrow them in most area's.

Nice work RP. Hope it all works out well and your trees get established.

Thanks Rip,been over in the Philippines and just back last night. I tip so much better when their internet is dogs balls and can't change my tips.
