Merry Sweaty Christmas all.
          Well Christmas Day was great but mother nature thru a hissy fit Chrissy night and decided to tear down thousands of huge trees, 1100 or more powelines, nearly sweep me off the road as I got home from din dins at my sisters & now.. here I sit off the power since Christmas night. Hot Hot Hot and a mess in the yard to clean too. No power til possibly 31st :/
          Anyway.. hope you had a great day!

A great overview if the Australian leg of the tour with a few nuggets of extras thrown in. Love the newspaper bylines throughout.

My daughter. I'm at a crossroad of making her go back to mainstream sch to try & encourage her to get back into the world. Her year at distance Ed, yr10 - 16yo in Dec., has been detrimental to her learning- she won't work, hardly submits. Etc (she promised she would do sch work if we let her DE). She is even more isolated and not interested in going out AT ALL.  Career- well if she can be a florist from her bedroom we'll be ok... she's booked to her first paed appt,  first avail, august 2024! 
          She drips sarcasm, threatens to call cops so much as touch her. Will it end. Or will I
          quit first.
          I'm sorry to vent. I feel very useless, and a horrible mother with her atm. 
          If stay at DE next year how do I get her supervised for yr11/12exams (she won't go anywhere) & come on, actually getting  her 'doing' the work. I'm at a loss. 
          5 kids, 36yo down to her. She's the hardest. I'm tired. Her 17yo bro wants to quit his final year too so I have that going on too. Fun times. 
          Sorry to vent again- No where else to do so.

           I know it's true
          It's all because of you

@MadameTango no I haven't head Neil's album I'll have to go listen . The Finn boys were big Beatles fans as I recall too.

@ArabianKnights haha I'm not feeling it. Have you heard Neil Finn's out of silence album - this song feels like it could have been in the running to make that album.

Watched official  video just now. My (sort of) review : 
          I thought there would be more attention to the 'leather suits ' piece but if it's not long, it's not long. 
          
          Old hello goodbye at the start -felt corny. 
          But then as they put the boys together it felt so fun and sad and heartaching or when  John was  in with orchestra - fun 
          Pity Ringo and Paul couldn't get together to film their pieces. It would have been all the more moving. But they're busy boys so  yeah ..
          
          That said I need to re-watch on the PC on the monitor load bigger than the phone screen lol . 
          
          Have a wonderful day all. I'm off to the 2nd Paul concert this arvo. Then he jets outta my/Australia's life. Pray for the rain and storms to hold off til midnight for me please

@MadameTango the rain staying away was absolutely perfectly timed.

@MadameTango I was at gold coast!  Pretty good spot if I can let go of memories of front row 2017 haha. Nothing lives up to front row.  Spoilt. :)  
            
            I was just behind those in the front section. We had a walkway in front of us row A of sectionB  so it gave us a bit of clearance over the heads in front  of us. Haha I don't know how Paul does it. Not even winded after songs ! Goals for my own old age!
