Update III, Helsinki, Trump, Putin, and Tweets

Heather Hastie — Sun, 22 Jul 2018 06:09:28 +0000

Hopefully, this is the last of these just-to-keep-things-ticking-over-with-some-tweets posts. Last week, I had a Needs Assessment by an Occupational Therapist. As a result, I’m expecting a new chair within the next week or so. Otherwise things are pretty much the same on the home front. “My cat” (really the neighbour’s cat who has chosen me […]

Catching Up (plus Tweets)

Heather Hastie — Sat, 30 Jun 2018 06:05:41 +0000

My apologies for another long break between posts. I thought I should explain, and also use the opportunity to post some videos and tweets. I’ve been out of town visiting the doc, which always takes me a while to recover from. In addition, my electric lift armchair is broken. Coping without it is difficult. The […]

Kakapo Lego (plus Tweets)

Heather Hastie — Mon, 18 Jun 2018 03:40:07 +0000

Regular readers will be aware I’m a Lego fan. I didn’t have any when I was a kid, but I’ve bought some as an adult. Nieces and nephews coming along was really cool, because it gave me an excuse to buy a lot more. It’s amazing how much of it stays at my place … […]

The Problem of Spam (plus Tweets)

Heather Hastie — Fri, 11 May 2018 03:46:39 +0000

I get a lot of weird stuff in the spam section of the comments for Heather’s Homilies. It seems to go through cycles that generally match what I’m writing about, or even what’s in the tweets. One thing’s for sure, you and I would go nuts if it wasn’t for the spam filter! There are […]

Trump Hits 3,000 Lies (plus Tweets)

Heather Hastie — Sat, 05 May 2018 04:10:27 +0000

Apologies to start with. Firstly, some of these tweets are getting a bit dated. I began this post yesterday by finding most of the tweets, then I ran out of time to write the homily. I should always do it the other way around. However, it was a few days since I’d checked my Twitter […]

NZ’s Pregnant Prime Minister (plus Tweets)

Heather Hastie — Mon, 30 Apr 2018 03:27:57 +0000

First off I must apologise. (Yes, that’s how we spell it in New Zealand.) I’ve been neglecting my website for a couple of weeks. There has been writing going on, but none of it made it here. Two posts are progressing slowly, and one may actually see the light of day. (Not every post I […]

A New Prince, God’s Grace, and Blasphemy Laws (plus Tweets)

Heather Hastie — Tue, 24 Apr 2018 03:54:46 +0000

As I’m sure you’ve all heard by now we have a new royal baby, and it’s a boy. Katherine, Duchess of Cambridge gave birth to a son just after 11 am 23 April London time. I can’t let that pass without a mention, if only to piss off the USians! I won’t go into raptures […]

The American People DIDN’T Elect Trump (plus Tweets)

Heather Hastie — Wed, 18 Apr 2018 05:42:00 +0000

You’re probably all wondering where I am given it’s been so long since I put anything on the website. So, I thought I’d do a quick tweets post to get you up-to-date. Everything is the same as usual with me. The problem was I didn’t have a laptop. On Thursday morning while rushing to answer […]

A Miscellany of Stupid (plus Tweets)

Heather Hastie — Sun, 08 Apr 2018 03:09:03 +0000

I wasn’t planning to do a Tweets Post at the moment. I’m working on a couple of other more substantial posts that are taking a lot of time. However, there are a few things I want to bring to your attention. They’re not Good Things. They’re WTF things. As I’ve said before, I’m (very) slowly […]

NZ Police Must Wear Body Cameras (plus Tweets)

Heather Hastie — Mon, 02 Apr 2018 06:32:20 +0000

I was tweeting a bit a couple of days ago, especially about one of my pet topics – gun safety in the US. As a result I felt the need to do a short post to include a few of those tweets. You’ll have to excuse my solipsism here – there are quite a few […]
