The treasurer is not gonna fire Philip Lowe. The government makes it a point of order to make their forecasts wrong. Just look at BOM for crying out loud. Those with mortgages are encouraged to accelerate when you see him on a pedestrian crossing though. "Sorry mate, I was forecast to break but then suddenly slammed on the accelerator and screwed you"

Any canned fish aficionados here ? Prior to Reddit shenanigans I had recently discovered /r/CannedSardines and I felt like I was home. All canned fish is welcome. Personally the King Oscar Briesling Sardines in Olive oil that you can find at your nearest Coles are excellent. I am sceptical of fishes canned in oil other than olive but perhaps that's an unfair baseline

Can proudly proclaim that whilst I still hold out the tiniest hope of hearing from my ex, I know now that I couldn't have a relationship with them unless they owned their behaviour like I have reflected on my own and changed. I'm a completely different person now and I know what I want and don't want and how I should be treated.

Edit for context; what I'm trying to say is, I have this tiny hope, but when I have the thought I then realise I don't want to get back together with my ex and that I've come to that realisation. In saying that I want ownership of behaviour and change in behaviour I'm setting a boundary because I don't see that happening and it's stands I've now set. I see now that I wasn't clear in this. Lol.

Maybe that extra large coffee late in the afternoon wasn't the best idea...

Another Marketplace sale today - lots of beer bottles out the door, and more space inside for me, yay! My old bottles are going off to bottle some samples for someone starting up a new brewery, so an exciting new future in marketing for them too!

Miss Meow snuck past me to have a great adventure in the outdoors. She was unimpressed with the weather and came straight back inside.
