November Thumbs

Gotta love nurses

Nurses – These amazing human beings work their arses of for bugger all remuneration, so the least we can do is offer them some praise. Thanks nurses!

Delilah Rose – The Beast welcomed another child to the fold in late September in the form of Dan’s beautiful little daughter Delilah Rose Hutton.

New Car Smell – After 12 years of flogging the old Holden Astra, it was time to invest in a more family-friendly wagon – a family-friendly Subaru Outback.

Ocean Swimming – The ocean swimming season gets underway this month with the Bondi Splash n’ Dash and the Coogee Island Challenge. Get wet!

Remembrance – Ironically, we often forget about Remembrance Day until it is right upon us. Not this year. 11th hour, 11th day, 11th month. Don’t forget it!

Thumbs Down

Violence Against Women – There is no excuse for hitting girls. We learnt this when we were about three. White Ribbon Day, on November 25, reinforces this.

Birthing Snobs – Did you know that some people look down their nose at women who have Caesars? As long as the baby is healthy, who cares how it comes out?

Late Starts – Sunny days are now upon us, and if your rig is not up to scratch by now, you’re going to be pushing shit up a hill to get it summer ready.

New Car Anxiety – The downside of owning a new car is worrying like never before about scratching the stupid thing. It’s only a matter of time around here.

The Plebiscite – What a complete and utter waste of money. Sure, you took it to the election, but when have politicians ever stuck with their election promises?
