Good advice. These puffins were nesting in my home village, Auchmithie, in Angus. The burrows are filled with soft red sandstone dirt which adorns their bellies. They flew straight over my head for a wash in the sea after this photo.

Pauline, Pauline.... She shoots herself in the foot so often the police wouldn't give her a gun licence. She doesn't seem to like us 'workers' as she collects her $341 000 a year. She thinks that we are all lazy, so I asked AI about her work ethic. AI thinks she should be sacked!

I was thinking that Trump will likely cause more death and despair in Cuba once bored of Iran. So I picked up the excellent Graham Greene’s ‘Our Man in Havana’ to gen up. I see, just like Orwell and Atwood, Greene saw Trump coming decades ago. Herbert too.

I refer you to a book from the 1998 election : ‘she’s got a head like a broken arsehole’. This is why Tomatohead belongs with her.

In 1998 people were saying she’s got ‘a head like a broken arsehole.’ Yet she’s still here. And let’s just say, she’s also not a bottle of fine wine.

Apparently you are also voting for someone with ‘a head like a broken arsehole.’ This book should be on every coffee table.

Well, I bought a book today based on its title. I saw ‘Fucking Apostrophes’ chuckling on a shelf at the Clunes book festival and I realised I was going to buy it before I even picked it up. It’s fucking brilliant.

There is only one quote I want (which I found in a bookshop today). “She’s got a head like an exploded arsehole.” 1998 Fair enough.

South Australia yesterday. Wholesale electricity prices soared to $20K per mwh when gas turbines kicked in 7.30 to 10pm. SA last 30 days - Gas averages $2000 Solar $47 Wind $81 Observation - The companies which do most to cause our heatwaves... make the most profit from heatwaves? Got it.

It’s a reverse Jim’ll Fix It! (For those who remember). The connections are uncanny, a love for gold, bling, ostentatiousness, gift of gab and complete lack of moral compass or humanity. And total nut jobs.

How about trawling the Register of Interests and telling us which MPs have received bribes/gifts from gambling companies?

Australia needs off shore wind, and here’s what it looks like. On the horizon is Seagreen, a 1GW fixed foundation wind farm. Thousands of construction jobs, hundreds on going. Dolphin population booming and whales still returning. Turbines are visible on a perfect day but only as tiny specks.

Here’s reality. Seagreen wind farm, Scotland. This is what a 1GW+ wind farm looks like. Thousands of construction jobs, hundreds ongoing. Dolphin population booming. If you can’t see it, that’s the point.

Dutton is Trump at the Pump. I suppose you can have Burn Baby Burn policies when you're not a scientist! Maybe someone told him,'I don't hold a hose, mate' killed Morrison, so hold as many hoses as you can! Spraying gasoline on the climate emergency?

Some would say the Coalition have crashed and burned. Yesterday, they did it in style, sitting crushed under a Dan Andrews rail initiative in Noble Park. Happy Easter.

A visiting magpie. My question is does he think he's found a large friend or does he identify as the Orca of the skies?
