Did you note the young Rowen Atkinson.
Mrs A has the Christmas decorations out as we’ve had family from the west. With her mum dying earlier this year, we’ve collected a few of these things. One was the nativity scene. I can’t help replicating ti.

Accidentally found another appropriate one for this list. On ABC radio this morning (listening while driving to town) there was a wonderful interview with Ita Buttrose and they played a Cold Chisel song which I’d forgotten – I believe in Ita. Was pretty good of course.

some of the hints are in the music, I’m with stupid refers to George W Bush and Tony Blair, Tramp the dirt down Margaret Thatcher. This list worked out harder than I thought.

I started here with Nelson Mandela given the time and thought this would be relatively easy list to produce, Not at all. What I did find was mostly right wing types where written about in glowing terms. I’m with Stupid is one of my favs from this list.
