Mini Army Niece and my New Year's Eve highlight was eating icecream cones while watching fireworks and then beautiful Casey Donovan (we love her) singing Defying Gravity. The screeching may have scared the rest of the family! :blobcatgiggle:

Hooray .. G Flip won the Song of the Year at the Arias (Australia's big music awards), 3% won Best HipHop/Rap release and Troye Sivan won Album and Soloist of the Year.

And for a change, this year's awards overall did not suck.

I don't always agree with Lidia Thorpe, but her protest at the King Chuck event definitely hit. (If you missed it - the British King and Queen have been invading our shores lately and there was a fancy reception last week).

But it's kinda depressing that Pod Save the UK's reporting is better than anything I saw in Aus media (will accept links tho!).

My fave Aus dog rescue lost their patriarch to cancer last week. He was the most gentle, sweet english staffy rescue boy and along with his beautiful big little bro Patty, they rescued dogs (and ducks, cats and even a couple of piglets!), and in particular special needs pups.

This video is a beautifully raw goodbye between these two goodest boys about 12hrs before Pikelet left us, peacefully, surrounded by his family.
