Mrs Possum hasn't been seen for a while, but Mr Possum has been here for the last two weeks.

We have a Ringtail Possum spending much of the day sitting on the outside window blind, keeping out of harms way. Eating breakfast we can see it's tail hanging down the shade. In the early evening, we can see it waking up and cleaning itself before going for a run on the next door's colorbond steel roof (ok - that bit isn't good).

did she really just say that???

Oh dear - the Federal Education Minister (Julia Gillard) on the 7.30 report really just said "..children are learnt to read..."

Please! I thought children were taught to read... and correctly form sentences when speaking...
