@ABCthedrum we swam the ocean pools of NSW in 2020. A great trip. Beautiful clean water everywhere - apart from the one when the local river was in flood

The Quarantine Quatrains: The Complete Poem https://t.co/lmwtUQmP6t via @malcolmguite
Malcolm Guite's 40 stanza response to the Quarantine is another wonderful piece of poetry reflecting on the joys and sadness of our current day. Well worth the time to read it through.

6 weeks after the run on Toilet paper began, Woolworths this week sold 20.5 million rolls. That nearly 1 roll for every person in Australia! What are people doing with it?

I just received email from myGov telling me that they've joined with Westpac and will give me $300 if I sign up my Westpac account. The link goes to very convincing myGov login page - except that the url ends in .pw - for Palau not Australia

What's the point of paying for Stan when it doesn't have the bandwidth for me to watch a program on a Sunday afternoon. #stan #unhappy

@CBEMelbourne In fact I don't think I've ever heard anyone else mention it either.

@CBEMelbourne I hadn't really connected the idea of priest with 1 Cor 11 before this weekend, though obviously the authority for prophesy and prayer I did

[Chris Appleby @Apples5550]

#CBEBetterTogether2017 ... looking at 1Cor 11 that's exactly what Paul says women are to do - in a respectful/respectable fashion of crse.

[Chris Appleby @Apples5550]

#CBEBetterTogether2017 OT role of priest wss to bring the word of God to people and the people's prayers/petitions to God - eg sacrifices.

[Chris Appleby @Apples5550]

Great time at #CBEBetterTogether2017. Very stimulating. Led me to start thinking about what it means to be a priest ...

@HeatherCetrango What bothers me are the adults who cry about everything.
