Exactly.
A humane solution has been found. I cut up some old chicken wire to size and placed the pieces over the catās preferred areas of the garden. Havenāt seen the cat nor any evidence of same for a couple of weeks now.

Back in the 80s (and before), there was a menswear shop in Elizabeth St (about 3 shops south of Flinders Lane) called Fairway that had a sign saying āCLOSING NEXT FRIDAYā for about 5 years.
One time, they told the truth.

Iām pretty sure the beanbag store on the corner of Waverley street and maribrynong road has been closing down for the past several years too.
I could never fathom how a beanbag store generates enough revenue to stay open in the first place

So was that where the Liberals found their role model?
School roofs used to be an absolute bounty for footys/frisbees/tennis balls. If the school got them all down, youād ruin all the povo kidsā holidays.

āBack to the futonā (opposite corner from Box Hill City Oval had a closing down sale for a good 10 years.
I was helping out at my kids school working bee earlier this year and one of the other dads grabbed a ladder and climbed up on the roof to get a whole heap of balls that had been kicked up there. After he got down, and started heading towards another building with the ladder under his arm one of the teachers told him that he wasnāt allowed to as he hadnāt been trained on the ladder.
He dead-pan response was āIām a firefighter with the MFB. Before I joined the MFB I was a builder. Point out a single person here who is more qualified than me to use a ladderā.

Coz it happens a lot in chord progressions in rock songs since time immemorial, often copied from classical music.
