@witty_knitter Don’t need menopause for amenorrhoea. 🙂 But I agree, it’s awesome.


@twelveeyes @redambition I still think that even if there are seats, taking a 4-month-old to fancy restaurant is very rude to other diners.


@redambition @twelveeyes @zephyrama Just don’t understand why they take a kid somewhere he’s too young to appreciate.


@redambition @twelveeyes @zephyrama …Says the tourist who once had to endure a screaming infant while viewing the Book of Kells in Dublin.


@AusVintageGrrl @redambition @twelveeyes @zephyrama Just wondering if there’s a line somewhere. Do you think kids are ever inappropriate?


@AusVintageGrrl @zephyrama Totally understand that there are good/bad kids. But sometimes I appreciate a grownups-only event, you know?


I honestly never realised that so many people were fine taking a child basically anywhere. I’m a little surprised. I don’t think I would.


@drkknits @randomknits Snook argues that it depends whether it’s okay to discriminate against kids, whether they have same human rights.


@drkknits @randomknits Of course, his opinion is that kids are inappropriate anywhere dog is inappropriate, which is totally non-PC. 🙂


@drkknits @randomknits Interestingly, that is exact same argument he was making.


Playing “Map of Tasmania” in the office. Nobody seems to have noticed…


@mudsurfer HAHAHAHAHAHA…. It’s a song. I didn’t realise it could be read otherwise. 🙂


Start of the Vivid Festival! Sydney Harbour in stunning lights. @ Circular Quay http://t.co/o5OUGWfb


@that_alison This hipster is slightly jealous. Nice friends!


Finished 50 Shades of Grey. Hm. Pretty much exactly what I expected. Just read that Skarsgard may star in the movie tho. Ahem. (cc@drkknits)


@drkknits Not sure. It’s porny all right, but never as kinky as you think it’ll get. I think its popularity is interesting though.


@drkknits I’m interested in what my favourite ivory tower feminist academic has to say about it. 🙂


@randomknits Hm. Actually, they probably can. The writing is explicit, but most of the scenarios aren’t that exotic. Rated R, definitely.


@Illdrinn I’ll join you in the queue!


@drkknits Well, this is interesting. It actually started as a Twilight fanfic, and you can tell. But no vampires. Ana > Bella, I’d say.


@drkknits Though she’s a Bella clone at first. Not sure I’ll read all 3. It’s essentially just a romance novel. My brain might fall out.
