    My meows are realistic enough that it attracted the attention of a strolling cat who looked disappointed before moving on. Further meows were ineffective.

      I’m now curious how the whole cat thing went down. Did you kidnap a random cat and now don’t know who it belongs to? Did you have a delusional moment where you thought you found a cat but it turned out to be a pair of balled up socks in reality?

      There will not be time to celebrate. Just sayin.

      Have been saving a very upmarket choc bunny from Easter to eat tonight when all the shenanigans of EOFY are over (FINALLY!!!). May indulge in a few champers too.

      Then all the stuff that our clients have been saving up ‘for the new FY’ will hit on Tuesday/Wednesday.

      Pray for me.

    I watched Trainwreck: Poop Cruise and it confirmed to me how precious Americans are. The ship is in a state of anarchy and they were more concerned about how long they can hold out for before they needed to shit into a biohazard bag.

    The highlight for me was when a crew member described the state of the dunnies. (Not verbatim) "There was poo. A layer of toilet paper. Poo. Toilet paper. Poo. It was like a lasagne.

      Hung jury. All 12 jurors have to agree and come to a unanimous verdict for not guilty or for guilty. So I think it likely that there’ll be a hung jury and a re-trial at some later date. Which will be even more of a shit show.

      Such a pity the Scottish law verdict of ‘not proven’ is not available here in Victoria. Which basically means We know you done it but there’s no evidence.

      I do think the r/deathcapdinner mob (and I chose that word deliberately) need to be reminded of the basic human right of being innocent until proven guilty.

        I think she wanted to make them ill but not kill. There’s no evidence to say she intended on killing.

          I will absolutely cook up some popcorn before venturing on that sub if it comes back not guilty.

            😂

            They think she’s some sort of sociopathic mastermind imbecile and really she’s a housewife who made a major boo boo and tried to back peddle her way out of trouble. It’s not really that deep.

        Yeah, I reckon this as well. There’s enough room for doubt. But the astounding amount of lies and possible lies is just mental. I have so many questions!

      Hoping for guilty, realistically think there’s a good chance of not guilty. I haven’t followed it in detail but it just seems like there’s enough room for doubt…

      Either way, Erin Patterson is never going to live a normal life ever again after this

      I too think she’s guilty, or a little bit guilty. She’ll get off because of something something imo.
