When drivers follow my car too close.
I know where every pot hole and lump is and I swerve at the last moment and watch them hit em ker-bump!
Straight away they back off.

Geez … why do people do this fake shit? I mean what’s in it for them? Thanks for sorting that out for me.
The fake photo looked good though… :giggle
Typical humans and, yes, it does look good :lol:

At least it it isn't too hard to do it on computer unlike "Gosford glyphs" in NSW

BTW, I used to carve Easter Island heads with an axe out of tree stamps near Cobar in NSW because I went full troppo under hot January sun :hot

A jokers tunnel or someone with a mental health problem attempting to communicate with outer- worldly beings in their own schizophrenic tongue?
:lol:
Don't laugh....on my first year placement, 2nd semester at one of only two closed-ward facilities in Sydney ( as a naieve nursing student) there was this woman, about 60 who had calved wierd symbols, hieroglyphics into her torso, legs, arms so deeply she required skingraphs like a burns patient.
They actually found her living in a cave not far from where you mentioned, she was naked and apparently of the belief that she needed to "cleanse herself " in said cave, to get rid of parasites.

Perhaps she was responsible for this incredible art 😄

I really disliked that placement, actually wasn't a fan of mental health at all.
It left me feeling completely hopless, because these people were in this facility because they were never going to recover, not to the point wherby they'd ever be able to safely live independently anyway.


This is what happens when you don't get your preferences in early, ( my child had been off school sick so I missed uni that week) and everyone else got the nicer placements.



That'll learn me 😄

What's happening today, daughter’s end of year Christmas dance party, ( just need to drop off and then pick up) I didn't volunteer as a helper for this one , given I'm still recovering from last weekend.
:bgrin Christmas dance concert.

Finally, the year of dance has come to a close, looking forward to the break. She does tap,ballet, jazz, contemporary, acro, troupes, multiple solos and will be starting theatrical performance in the new year too. Just can't stop her, she's a machine, so self driven, and I am a firm believer in giving kids the tools and resources to build their own futures. But this said, I'm quietly glad it's over now for the year. :clap

If I didn't have RA, I'd do an aerial and a backflip myself. :mrgreen:

Looking forward to going home in the new year to be with family and friends also.

Next year's going to be a big year, I can feel it in what's left of my creeky bones, I want to get back to a passion of mine, writing, if only for my own warped amusement lol...which is something until very recently left me for several years following a change of circumstances I can now comfortably call it.

My RA is under control, I now need to figure out what I will be doing with the rest of my life.
I have a desire for further study, but in the past have always chosen degrees which "fit in" with my parenting circumstances, like nursing when my eldest two were young, and Education when miss M started school. Now I think it's time I studied something that I want to do for me, and not because it fits around my family.

Selfish?

I'm also needing a new laptop ( old one has zero storage) and am thinking about going with either a Mac book or Chrome book.

Can anyone recommend something suitable?

Because I'm fed up with having to edit posts on my phone, autocorrect is not so great when you are trying to write on a smart phone. It's annoying.
So if I'm to study next year, I'll be needing more than a smartphone .
I just need to decide what kind of laptop.

There's more "Gliphs" in caves at Mount White too ( Greenmans Valley) not far from Gosford, though definitely not as remarkable as the above.
The holiday park owner who's property at Mount White has these caves believes they were created by convicts who were involved in rum smuggling up along the Hawkesburry River and they were a type of code to one another.

Not sure if this is correct, but this was his take on it.

Ha ha very good Jasin. 😁

Who knows, but there's plenty of theories floating around Mount White, interesting they're near Gosford too.
