Signs Of The Coming Of Winter

[Eggs]

Can't say I've heard of it. What happens in Karratha?

Karratha is an Australian city adjoining the port of Dampier in the Pilbararegion of Western Australia, which was established in 1968 to accommodate the processing and exportation workforce of the Hamersley Iron mining company and, in the 1980s, the petroleum and liquefied natural gas operations of the North West Shelf Venture. At the 2011 census, Karratha had a population of 16,475.[1] The city's name comes from the cattle station from which land was reclaimed for the development. Karratha in the local Aboriginal language means 'good country' or 'soft earth'.[2] The city is the seat of government of the City of Karratha.

TBH anyone who asks for a pint glass filled with ice with their cider needs a punch in the cock.

I want to add to that those people (inevitably served before me at the bar) who order complicated coffees with cream floaters. Takes ten minutes for the bar staff to find the fricking mugs, brew the damn concoction and add bleeding sprinkles FFS. GO TO A CAFE.

I'm waiting for everyone to suddenly becomes an expert in a Winter Sport they've never heard of before, after the plucky GB team get to the semi-finals in it

Yet disturbingly hypnotic.

Yet strangely hypnotic.

I am still trying to work out what, and why, and how it is happening.

Can't say I've heard of it. What happens in Karratha?

It's in the Pilbara region in the North of WA - couple of big gas plants and the 2nd busiest port in Australia (19th in the world)

Saw a squirrel digging some holes in my garden this evening.
Last winter I saw one digging furiously and secreting food in the snow. Pity under the snow was a pavement.
