  1. I had no idea Loughnane/Credlin hate Robb. Suddenly a whole lot of things start to make sense.

    But WHY? Some kind of generational turf war?

  4. But I’m not talking “Thatcher” as a woman politics here…Thatcher played from the “Men’s room” handbook…I’m saying this is a new style completely…a genuine female politics style….consider that last week last year…Memsa and Credlin played by the “Old-boys club” rule book…and Gillard took it and took it and took it…till even I thought..;”Christ!..play the card, play the card!….I hope she’s GOT the card!!”…..when you saw that fat slush-file folder and you know how deep the Liberal pockets are and how low they will stoop to pick up a bit, any bit, of shit!

    And then she called the bluff and played them like they were helpless kittens and then double bluffed them back and challenged Abbott to call the charge..call the hand and he bottled it…they all bottled it…The LOTO, Memsa, the entire Liberal Party Machine, the MSM and every gallery hack that had the capacity to scrawl their “X” on a piece of paper!

    And NOW…She’s back and..she’s rested..and she’s savvy…I doubt there’s a male in the cabinet who’s gonna try to steer her down a dead-end alley any more!….

    Don’t get me wrong, I am not 100% with such ALP. conservatism, I like a bit more bolshie in the leadership, but hey!…that’s ..probably..why I’m not Prime Minister!

    Sorry about the ad in front!…But I’m not that good at this stuff!

  5. BB:

    Jeez you scared me half to death with the first half of that comment about your dog!

    As to Robb et al, dunno. Maybe it’s a Victorian thing. Which raises the question: what has happened to the Victorian Liberals? The new generation coming through are either loud-mouthed boors, or lazy self indulgent types like the Member for Casey.

  10. And hey!..I’ll tell you something else for free..if Hillary Clinton throws her hat into the presidential ring next time the circus comes to town, she’ll more than likely adopt a style ; alla Gillard….I’ll betcha!

    Truckers Knew We Were In A Once-In-A-Generation Recession Before Anyone Else
    Rob Wile | Jan. 18, 2013, 11:29 AM

    If you ever wondered what industry is the American’ economy’s most accurate bellwether, here’s some pretty good evidence that it might be trucking.

    In the just-released minutes of the Federal Open Market Committee’s December 11, 2007 meeting, then-St. Louis Fed Governor William Poole recounted what he was hearing from his nonfinancial business contacts about orders and sales.

    Most reported softening activity, but nothing dire.

    But not Poole’s trucker.

  19. While I think of it the local supermarket today had legs of lamb on special at circa $15 – $20 depending on weight/size.

    A veritable bargain considering their normal cost under the carbon ‘tax’ is $100 each! I couldn’t believe they hadn’t sold out, and so snapped up a couple. Who knows when lamb will be this cheap again!

  21. I paid $10.99 per kilo for bulk t-bone today. Newman really IS screwing you Qlders over!

  22. While elsewhere in the world the attack of the Trolls continues apace, here at the Pub we have been treated to an afternoon of well-reasoned, well-developed and constructive political assessments.

    The way things are going here is a credit to the publicans who built the pub and the drinkers who imbibe here.

  25. Joe6Pack,

    You run a tight ship, cap’n, in the subtlest of ways. This is indeed a great place whether just reading/lurking, throwing in a wisecrack or three, or participating in the many and varied debates.

    Again, thank you for your enterprise in opening the PUB.

  30. Night fiona.

    On dogs, can anyone tell me how I can administer human pain relief to a 23 kilo dog with a sore hind leg? I tried to get her into the vets today, but they are booked out until Monday morning, and she seems to be in a bit of pain.

    She needs an anti inflammatory which I have in the form of aspirin, but don’t know how much of a human tablet to give her. Any ideas?

  35. confessions from what i know asprin and panadol

    DO NOT , DO NOT GIVE TO DOGS
    IS THEREan after hours service you could ring.

    or look on line
    A Pharmacists may know what dog can have and cannot have

  39. connfessions
    but panadol being think i was told is a no no
    for dogs

    poor thing how did it happen

  40. denese:

    Panadol is a no-no. Aspirin OTOH is ok.

    I don’t know how it happened. She was limping yesterday when I got home, and I removed a grass seed from between her toes. That worked and she was walking normally again, but today woke up and she was unable to walk on the foot. I’ve checked for more grass seeds, but there’s nothing there.

  41. i think its the weather every one seems rather tired
    are you well now joe

    confessions also have you a water bottle just tap warm warter and a nice
    old cardigan of yours wrapped around it for her and let her sleep with you

  42. i think a grass seed sometimes hurts the foot and then the next day \it may feel like a bruised foot would feel for us

    i have very sore heel on the bottom i have no idea but then i remmeber i walked over a rock, did nt have my walking shoes on
    i cannot see a thing so i think a bruise internally
    so may be thats what it feels like to her also
    or if it was infected i think you would see it what about some nice warm water on a towel with a bit salt kn the water then if it was ifected
    that would help

  46. denese:

    She normally sleeps with me, but I don’t think in her present condition she could jump onto the bed. That’s a great idea about the hot water bottle, if I drag her bed into the bedroom and place it with her for the night.

  47. fess

    re the grass seed
    here’s a suggestion
    you may need to use a magnifying glass

    I remember mum removing one grass seed and our dog limping again the next day, so out came the magnifying glass and mum could just see the very tip of a another grass seed that had sunk right in. Pair of tweezers carefully wielded and out came another one.

  49. victoria will you pass on to doley m
    i respect him and like him also. he is one i miss not chatting to,

    but as i am not posting there i cannot tell him so
