Easter Egg Hunt

Guest Author Uncategorized

Hello echidnas! My name is Kylie Sandilands – Kyle’s virtually identical twin sister. It is an honour and a privilege to be The Pub’s first official Guest Author, and to share with all you lovely Pubketeers a Very Special Event. Yes – it’s the Kirribilli House Easter Egg Hunt,

hosted by our wonderful Prime Minister, Ms Julia Gillard,

First Bloke Mr Tim Mathieson,

and Adorable Dog Reuben the Cavoodle.

Today I will be your very own Easter Bunny, and I have much pleasure in declaring the Easter Egg Hunt open. Here is your first clue:

Welcome to my Easter hunt

Now, first let’s go to something out front.

The clue is hiding in a spot

That grown-ups seem to check a lot,

Sometimes it’s full, sometimes it’s empty

You’ll often see here stamps aplenty.

Have a nice day – and would you like fries with that?

  4. Clue the Seventh and Last:

    This should sort the men from the boys …

    In the little bunny hole,
    Round the big tree,
    Out through the bunny hole,
    And off goes she.

  6. Bushfire Bill,
    Did you get a reasonable reply, or any reply at all for that matter, to your post to Mod Lib et al. over the road today?

    I think I got told I was delusional etc. and that Gillard would surely lose because of her original sin (my words) in knifing Rudd.

    They just can’t let go. Three meetings of caucus designed to settle the problem, three years in which to do it, plus an election and it’s still not enough.

    I’ve been told Rudd was tricked, gamed, backstabbed… any excuse for his three-zip losses.

    Any indication on her part of fighting for her position was dismissed as just more trickery, unfair etc.

    Apparently Gillard was supposed to stand by, a stationary target and just let Rudd keep taking pot shots at her until he finally hit the mark. Or something.

    ‘So has ‘Authority-In-Waiting’ spent the weekend in Yass at Mudrock’s place?’

    Sold long ago, I think.

  8. Puffy, Janice, C@tmomma,

    Puffy was right – the fridge and sirloin steak.

    These interesting little numbers are for all of you to share:

  11. I liked Rudd too, in the beginning. It is not the end of the world that he iks gone. They might as well get over it. The Libs hate it that Tony has to face up against Boadicea, and she will not be in a merciful mood.

  12. Puff, once the trolls got whiff of that poll, they attacked. True reactionaries, they can only follow

  13. Ah, dash it, missed the easter egg hunt. Congrats Fiona for all the wonderful clues, and well done to all the winners. 🙂

  14. suppose u all noticed who said the graph was on face book

    well why didnt this poster place it over there,

  26. .. reading through to-and-fro’s with the ruddists “over the road” (source: C@tmomma – wittily described as) .. reminds me of something .. old words of the batman .. few recall these days .. “exaggeration is the enemy of objectivity, robin”.

    words from the wise from daretotread: “the public LOATHE Gillard.”

    “Well DTT, that tells us really very little about the public, but plenty about you, fella (?)”

    [sub-ed:].. Ha-haaartch, the referent may be besotted by a bloke from Qld, but Peter, the purists might quibble about the word “besotted”..

    he scans incoming tweets dropping aspirin into long glass of club soda – “what kinda ridiculous moniker is this .. some kinda character bushfire” ..[he reads:] ‘So how do we rebuff thus absurdity .. this impersonation of man .. this qldtweep, this … psychopath!’ … hmm .. exaggerated language …”

    Meanwhile, in Gotham City … the archfiend in his 34th floor redoubt … reminiscing of a time long past … johker for canberra …

    Perry White gulps down aspirin. Phone rings.

    “yes, chief”.

    The line goes dead.

  28. When Tacker’s bowl’s empty, I know what I do.
    He doesn’t believe he’s been properly fed
    Till I bring out his bone whIch he takes to his bed
    Is Reuben like that? And one of these words your very last clue?.

  29. Hi Honey, I’m home!

    Had a wicked day with 13 kids and a raft of adults auditioning as Webbers successor on the go-kart track. Awesome fun with some truly awesome people! Pretty impressed by my son’s peers. All great kids.

    Now I iz home and am a very shattered little Spacey! Think I might tell the kids to fend for themselves tonight while I have a Nanna Nap!

    its rather sad isnt it, i dont get .

    i think soon he will be the only so called labor person left,

  36. So was the clue that you go to the the fridge?

    C@tmomma, my experience with animals and cheap pet food, including cheap butchers’ seconds mince, is that they know what’s good for them if they’ve always been fed reasonable quality raw meat and bones and turn their noses up at rubbish. I watch for lamb shanks on special and buy in bulk to store in the freezer. Easy these days, of course, without a family to feed.

    Sounds like over-indulgence but I’ve been rewarded with very healthy animals who’ve never needed a vet except for their triennial vaccine shots.

  37. Yummee …!

    I did knit and crochet many decades ago but, with the stakes so high, I must admit I googled.

  39. CTar1, I don’t know if Mudrock is in residence at Yass this weekend. I have spies that tell me if he is around but due to long weekend I have to touched base. I gather from staff employed by Mudrock that the basic rule for them is , “if he says nothing, then it’s all ok” . I assume it is not worth being spoken to.

  40. Have I missed something or is some poll in Time magazine being cited as disastrous, the final nail, something from which there’s no recovery etc, etc, for Julia Gillard? & if so who’s saying it?
    With things perhaps warming up a bit on the Korean peninsula I wonder whether the murdochrats & their ilk are gaming a new push, whether they could tell us all that we’ll have to install Mr Abbott today as only he will be able to lead the country through the turbulence we face.
    The party of Pig Iron Bob, his efforts at Suez, Vietnam, Iraq & Afghanistan would surely be well placed to steer us at this critical time?

  41. Patricia,

    Yes, Reuben’s steak is in the fridge 🙂

    TLBD,

    Norty, but you are forgiven – this time …

  42. Yeah, well that is what you might call ‘lateral thinking’. Well done (albeit, you googled Tlbd) and thank you Fiona for a bit of easter fun.

  43. Fiona

    The last clue sounds like the rhyme we were taught to learn how to tie a bowline knot

  45. thanks ducky! I remember my teacher was concerned I would knit back the way I came if I stopped in the middle of a row. As I got older I graduated to the bask ie cuffs

  50. Thank you, everybody – delighted that you enjoyed the frivolity!

    Now, moi is about to have dinner – bar service will resume in approximately 30 minutes unless BB, C@tmomma, or The Boss are around 😉
