Jesus Christ on a crumpet mate, im going out with a guy and even I know that asking a woman that question is akin to sticking a rocket launcher up your own ass.

"Do these jeans make my arse look fat?"

Run for the hills!!!

I just bought two new pairs of tracky dacks online. I’m pretty confident they will fit.

Well my first foray into on line shopping hasn't ended that well - purchased 4 items and one fits. Rang them and was told I could return by mail for refund or different size. Didn't really want a refund and I prefer to see sizing before reordering. As they are closed, they have extended their return dates from 30 days to end of June. Thought that was good, hopefully I can go shopping by then.

You can go shopping now! Particularly for clothes. Other than the odd shirt, clothes or shoes are not easy to buy online.

Damn.
The wrong world leader has been put into intensive care.

I have to ask..... do you really need more clothes?
I would have thought, unlike toilet paper, that most households could get through 6 months without new clothes.
I'm a male, so maybe I have no idea.

Yes needed, they have the best spencers, I feel the cold (heattek) a lot.

When I moved house in August, did a big clean out and gave away quite a lot to charity as I thought I would replenish later.

Most shops closed, they are. Also am limiting going out only for food.

You are right thought on line not good if you are not familiar with their sizing.

Sorry I had forgotten that clothes shops were largely closed. Just have to make do with my rags for some time yet. It is a pain having to return clothes that don't fit. I know several people who buy shoes online but it's one item I would never risk buying without seeing them and trying them on for size.

George Pell released.
Found not guilty of all charges.

Was always going to happen.
The church and the judiciary are historically close. Take the Independence of the jury out of the equation and we end up where we are today.

God will judge him.

The Court of Appeal, with no jury in sight, did uphold the original verdict before it went off to the High Court.

I know this is a controversial call and people will accuse me of Andrew Boltism but unfortunately there wasn’t enough evidence for a conviction.

Close game though, went down to the wire.

Where, I’m sure the court of appeal already knew, the outcome was already known.
All about looking like the process is followed.
To think otherwise is to misunderstand how a court works under its religious mandate.

Maybe you can explain this religious mandate to me, throw in some solid evidence for good measure. I'm always keen to be educated.

As it’s a Catholic thing at least there’ll be no talk of a Freemason conspiracy.

Yep, this. High court haven’t declared him innocent, just that there was sufficient doubt to overturn the decision. It was always a tough case to make since it was essentially 1 persons word against another persons word.

It was two people’s word against one.
And that was enough for people like you and me to see the truth.
That people who are removed from normal society to render a different verdict undermines the whole jury process. If I was ever to be called for jury duty again I would cite this case as the waste of my time being on a jury would be.

Fantastic tribute to Bill Withers on PBS right now. What a talent he was. Voice like treacle and a razor sharp mind. RIP Bill.

So much for herd immunity.

South Korea reported that 51 coronavirus patients' infections went away then 'reactivated.' But it's unlikely the virus has a dormancy period.

Health authorities said 51 COVID-19 patients in recovery tested negative then positive again within a "relatively short time." It's not clear how.

Faith is important to a lot of people.

May not be your thing, or mine, but it has its place to give people comfort and solace.

No different to love of Collingwood and what that brings people.

You're right about the importance of faith to some people; I am very cynical about the church not about faith.

There's a difference between our passionate support of a sporting club and organised religion. Don't get me started.
