Christmas truce 1914Weekend social is for non political chat. What’s on for the weekend, gigs, film or book reviews, sports, or whatever.

No politics, no aggro, why can’t we all just get along?

      I haven’t had a drink for about 3 years. I got a pleasant surprise at how easy it was to stop, but I know it’s not like that for everyone.

    Looks to be a shitty day ahead so between now and the NRL final I’m going to fill my boots listening to new music via Wonder.fm and Soundcloud charts.
