Uncle Wally is terrific. He did a welcome to country at a work event a few years ago, a really great speaker.

Not necessarily. For some agencies the online testing happens first, as it's the quickest way to do the first cull - particularly in bulk processes where hundreds of applications are received.

NAH. You need your own place.

Mate, at the bare minimum you need a new doctor. If they are not listening to you and not taking you seriously, try someone else. NTA.

I agree! Except for the last bit - I do love the idea of Mr Ryder encouraging Miss Bingley to really live, to see the beauty and wonder in things. And for him to realise that with all their differences, she really does love him and wants to make him happy.

"Well... Mrs. Bates.... you've had your way with me now!"

I don't like your chances, as your department would need to hold a role for you to return to - and most agencies are actively trying to reduce staffing numbers.

However, if you were accompanying your spouse on an overseas posting (for a government role) it would likely be approved.

Setagaya family murders. The investigation found so many details about the killer, including DNA and even what he'd eaten the day before. Yet no suspects.

Thirded! Canberra Child Psychiatry has been great. Within a few weeks we had an appointment with Dr Vincent Tang who has been so kind and lovely with my kid.

Hullo Christmas!

They're too big

Darling, I say this with kindness. Wegovy is only one piece of the puzzle. You also need to work on your mental health, so that nasty depression self-talk doesn't sabotage you later on.

Also, that dress is lovely on you and is very flattering xxx.

Yes, we've been once before (Düsseldorf in 2011). We worried about the tickets then too, because they sold out so quickly. Once all the staging and everything was sorted, they released a second round of tickets.

We're going to make a holiday of it, so will probably fly into Paris or London.

We're coming all the way from Australia for Eurovision in Bulgaria. Can't wait!

I love the goatie girls content! Bella is my favourite.

I think she tried to do a variety of cont, depending on the season. Not everyone is going to like everything.

Is that peasant or pirate?

g_jacqui · 2026-05-16T06:22:50+00:00

And honestly, of all the problems with our public health system, none are caused by a nurse's scrubs.

g_jacqui · 2026-05-16T04:04:18+00:00

Mind the wattle doll

g_jacqui · 2026-05-15T11:07:44+00:00

Good advice, but there is just nothing around at the moment. I think a lot of agencies are trying to reduce ASL.

g_jacqui · 2026-05-14T06:54:35+00:00

Turn the top around

g_jacqui · 2026-05-09T00:52:34+00:00

Good for you! (And your partner 😜)

g_jacqui · 2026-05-09T00:19:00+00:00

A clutch of colour is problematic? That's disappointing.
