Today in Australia was marked by a fearsome display of nationalism...
which I carefully avoided, because nationalism is Not My Thing.
I have a singular lack of news today unless you've developed an unhealthy interest in my laundry basket, or in Murphy breaking in to sit and watch while I have a nap.
