Last night the government gave me free morphine and a fancy bed to lie in listening to Led Zeppelin. How fucking great is socialism. On the other hand how fucking great are the capitalist miserable bastards hoarding $40Billion at ACC while the public health system bleeds
Don’t knock the ACC fund. We actually should have built up $400 billion investment fund for free ACC, medical treatment, dentistry and a decent superannuation but we vote in governments that insist that tax cuts are more important.
I think we are playing for the same side Roger. Just saying David would have got a private room and choice of surgeon had he qualified for ACC. I was in the House as a visitor the night Kirk's pay as you go super scheme was introduced. Muldoon was vituperative
School camp! Try the 60s when my co-Ed high school sent its 5th formers to Curious Cove. (What were they thinking) Must have been a record player or a radio there, anyway we were hooked up to the Rolling Stones and a bunch of awkward teenagers were leaping about chanting I can’t get no sex reaction. So cool.

Great stuff. So good to hear that you're out and about again. Relieved and not moving impetuously, I suppose.
Thoroughly enjoyed young fogey Ruth's well told tale and listening to her 4th form favourite too.I haven't heard that song since the 90s.
I checked out songs that were released in my 4th form year, and was amazed at the memories that were triggered.

I am also from Blenheim and went to fourth form school camp at Lake Rotoiti! 1995 for me. I don't have any musical memories from that camp.
This time 🤞
Great writing. Great health news. You do know good writers don't you?!
Great that you're back home. Here' to no more Royal Flushes.
Now - did you deliberately set up that Gandalf moment in para 3 or am I just divergent thinking again?
