Pete Seeger died in New York yesterday aged 94 . He was a member of The Weavers when they sang the original Goodnight Irene back in the early 1950s . He sang a lot of Bob Dylan stuff and wrote a lot of protest type songs himself . . . . Little Boxes comes to mind .

Three girls all worked in the same office with the same female boss. Each day, they watched the boss leave work early. One day, the girls decided that, when the boss left, they would leave right behind her. After all, she never called or came back to work, so how would she know they went home early? The br...

We are driving from Mildura to Lakes Entrance, Victoria. 22ft van towed by Nissan Navara King Cab. Are we able to cross Mt Hotham between Omeo and the coast or is it a big strain on the tow vehicle?
