Noted. But then we have plenty down here in Australia. In fact, far too many. Most of who have absolutely no idea what they are rabbiting on about when they talk about Oz becoming a republic like you Merkins or the Indonesians have.

As for Republicans, my next-door neighbor (a cashed-up bogan tradie) endlessly yaps on about how much he likes your latest ex-POTUS solely solely because he has a lot of money and is rich. I bite my tongue and try to keep the peace but we are not good neighbors.

You will be most welcome to as many of this type from us as you can accommodate. I am sure they will love your cold winters...

Truly, this is one of those wonderful only a few in a lifetime images.

The photographer's as well as the subject's.

It would ideally fit into one of those Avantgarde low budget films from the 1960s, you know the kind, filmed in B&W, salt shaker grain, weird and even crazy angles, made about subjects many righteous folk consider taboo and avoid talking about.

Aging has long been one of those hidden away taboos, so it's refreshing to see a few photographers here setting out to challenge one of the social biases.

Well done.

Thanks, but we have way too many already. Keep 'em. Maybe feed 'em to the crocs?
