Passionate couples wearing "His & Hers" outfits in public:

Three consecutive days pain free

When a package sent from England via regular post arrives in 5 days.

Watching tonight’s One News. A segment on Aussie cricketer Steve Smith not being able to participate in the third Ashes test due to a nasty concussion received in the second.

At the press conference the Aussie Coach said “Really it was a no-brainer”.

But he returned to the crease after being hit. Clearly the tests done at the time were inadequate. https://www.mykhel.com/cricket/ashes-2019-q-and-a-on-concussion-following-steve-smith-injury-124993.html has some interesting commentary.

Numbers I will never see.

My recently acquired Swazi jacket - a Wind River.

Excellent jacket and, unlike the cheaper Chinese made ones in most outdoor stores, this one was made in Levin!

Swazi gear is excellent stuff for anyone spending time outdoors.
