I have my shoulder to the wheel,
my nose to the grindstone,
I've put my best foot forward,
I've put my back into it,
I'm gritting my teeth,
Now I find I can't do any work in this position!

A few more quotes for you:-
"I have finished another year," said God
"In grey, gold, white and brown,
I have strewn the leaf apon the sod,
Sealed the worm within the clod,
And let the last sun down."
Thomas Hardy.
But if he finds you and you find him,
The rest of the world don't matter;
For the Thousandth Man will sink or swim
Beside you in any water.
Rudyard Kipling.
I therefore come before you armed with the delusions of adequacy with which so many of us equip ourselves.
Air Vice Marshal A.D. Button.
Snow is all right when it is snowing: it is like inebriation, because it is very pleasing when it is coming, but very unpleasing when it is going.
Ogden Nash.

From today's Brisbane Courier Mail
From an article by Mike O'Connor
"........................ The advertising industry is now a shining example of inclusion, for television advertisements now feature a dazzling array of skin tones, hair types and facial features. In the space of 30 seconds the viewer is swept around the world as black, brown and white faces flash across the screen lest the exclusion of a single ethnic group from an ad for washing powder trigger accusations of discrimination.
I don't know about you mate, if I may call you that and I mean it in the nicest possible way, but I think the world has been taken over by wankers."

Small paragraph in the old Melbourne Herald, when many were moving to Qld from here.
" This past year around 10 000 Victorians have moved to Queensland, thereby increasing
the average IQ of both states. " Rather unkind!

There are a lot of Roosters out there that should think of the old saying:-
You are Cock of the Walk one day
and a feather duster the next.
