Welcome to our November list—#247. This is the penultimate offering for 2021 and as we slide towards Christmas, we look back on what has been a tumultuous year.

Welcome to list #244, August 2021. For various reasons this is a shortened list with various categories given a rest for a month or so.

But rest assured, we will...

Welcome to Catalogue #242—at the onset of winter here in Perth. It’s been a savage summer here in Perth, a season I don’t relish as I get older. When young and fit it’s a glorious season but for us septagenarians, it’s a real hassle. We got our first serious rain over the last few days which was fantastic. Let’s hope it rains all winte...

Welcome to Catalogue #239, March 2021. As I plug away at this list, it’s Labour Day weekend in WA. The Hyde Park Fair was in full swing yesterday with kids running everywhere and the trinket stalls were in abundance. Not really my cuppa tea! Had quite a nice beef and cheese burger with chips then wended our way home. We live literally 150 metres...

Welcome to our Christmas 20% off Catalogue 237. As we head into the festive season it is also the disconcerting season. The unprecedented attack on my Regiment SASR by the disgraceful media, politicians of all stripes and lastly by the military leadership who have turned their faces to the wall for over a decade.
