Interesting that you don't take the guts out, before cooking them, DB?Chilli crabs went down a treat (forgot to take a pic before we munched them down, bad form I know).
Time for a granddad nap, then into the BBQ.
Gotta pace ya-self in your old dotage ...
I'm offended by this comment!Happy Australia Day everybody. Chuck some lamb on the barbecue, I have a small leg of lamb that I’ll be cooking.
So you should be offended by my offendedness of the post by Rgren, he should know betterer than to offend my by saying Australia Day because everyone knows that it's Invasion Day so now he has offended those that are offended by calling it Australia Day. How offensive is that!I'm offended by your offendedness...![]()
They already have a voice, they just need to get off their sorry arses and stop taking sit down money. Oh wait, the people that do try and make a real difference are vilified by the lazy poor us bastards. Look at the crap that Warren Mundine goes through when ever he tries to do good.See now this is where I have to disagree…
I think there was a stat a few years ago that something like more than half the AUS population had at least one parent that was NOT born in AUS. I’ve been here 10 years which some would consider still fresh off the boat.I know the significance of the date but to me personally, that’s not what AUS day is about.
To me it’s about celebrating being Australian and everything this great country has given me and has to offer. I don’t care what the date is, as long as you give me a day to celebrate that. And I think a big part of the recently immigrated population, which is a very large chunk of the total AUS population, would agree with me on this.
If the date is so divisive (which from the poles, it’s clearly not) just pick another friggin’ date and let’s move on! Just don’t take my public holiday away.
To me it’s fairly simple… Ole Albo wants to give indigenous Australians a voice in parliament (no idea what that means really), so start by asking them what day they would like to choose TO CELEBRATE EVERYTHING THAT IS GOOD ABOUT THIS LAND. Let them choose a date and just go with that.
Money talks but that won't be enough of that, for the WOKE mob to shut the fork up.The day they became independent or became unified. IMO the only justifiable date for Australia Day is Federation Day, the 1st of January. It is the day Australia became a nation. Nothing else stacks up. The only problem with that is that the day is already taken by New Year's Day. Even so, nothing else stacks up.
Not much point in changing it though because those that want to complain will just find something else to complain about. It will settle nothing.
