18.01.2022 MAJOR SHOUT OUT to one of our sponsors Baptistcare via #GracehavenNursingHome, the manager and team have been doing an amazing job during this crisis and we here at Cycling Without Age Rockingham just wanted to acknowledge it.

18.01.2022 Just be careful because people are going crazy from being in lock down! Actually I've just been talking about this with the microwave, toaster while drinking coffee and all of us agreed that things are getting bad. I didn't mention anything to the washing machine as she puts a different spin on everything. Certainly not to the fridge as he is acting cold and distant. In the end the iron calmed me down as she said everything will be fine, no situation is too pressing. The ...hoover was very unsympathetic... told me to just suck it up, but the fan was more optimistic and hoped it would all soon blow over! The toilet looked a bit flushed when I asked its opinion and didnt say anything but the door knob told me to get a grip. The front door said I was unhinged and so the curtains told me to ........yes, you guessed it .....pull myself together See more

18.01.2022 Because we all need a laugh..... Cycling Without Age Rockingham

16.01.2022 MALA is a uniquely WA community & non-profit organisation. It is totally dedicated to providing high-quality and age-specific ongoing educational activities for the mature adult populations of Perth, Peel (Mandurah) & Rockingham. Curiosity is such a large part of the human psyche. ... Human beings seldom stop thinking, asking questions or wanting to continue to learn about themselves, their fellows and the world we live in. It's never too late to find out more, and MALA can challenge and stimulate you to keep those grey cells ticking over! Most of Perth, Peel and Rockingham MALA activities have been suspended over the last few months because of the COVID-19 pandemic. As public services and community activities begin to be progressively restored, each MALA Committee will carefully monitor their local situation. Check this website and watch out for emails from your regional MALA Committee advising when, where and what MALA activities may be able to safely recommence in the future. http://mala.org.au

13.01.2022 Did you ever read the book by AB Facey, A Fortunate Life If you have then this may excite you... If you haven't, do so, its exceptional and considered an Australian Masterpiece. ... Ace Cinemas - Rockingham in conjunction with theatre 180 have for a strictly limited time the stage and movie production of the play A Fortunate Life. To watch a bit of the show click here. https://vimeo.com/438056067/01cbb4f479 To book click here. https://afortunatelife.com.au To find out more about the book click here. This is the extraordinary life of an ordinary man. It is the story of Albert Facey, who lived with simple honesty, compassion and courage. A parentless boy who started work at eight on the rough West Australian frontier, he struggled as an itinerant rural worker, survived the gore of Gallipoli, the loss of his farm in the Depression, the death of his son in World War II and that of his beloved wife after sixty devoted years - yet he felt that his life was fortunate. Facey's life story, published when he was eighty-seven.

07.01.2022 MEMORIES from a friend: My Dad is cleaning out my grandmother's house (she died in December) and he brought me an old lemonade bottle. In the bottle top was a stopper with a bunch of holes in it. I knew immediately what it was, but my daughter had no idea. She thought they had tried to make it a salt shaker or something. I knew it as the bottle that sat on the end of the ironing board to 'sprinkle' clothes with because we didn't have steam irons. Man, I am old.... How many do you remember? Headlight dip-switches on the floor of the car. Ignition switches on the dashboard. Trouser leg clips for bicycles without chain guards. Soldering irons you heated on a gas burner. Using hand signals for cars without turn indicators. Older Than Dirt Quiz: Count all the ones that you remember, not the ones you were told about. Ratings at the bottom 1. Sweet cigarettes 2. Coffee shops with juke boxes 3. Home milk delivery in glass bottles 4. Party lines on the telephone 5. Newsreels before the movie 6. TV test patterns that came on at night after the last show and were there until TV shows started again in the morning. (There were only 2 channels [if you were fortunate]) 7. Peashooters 8. 33 rpm records 9. 45 RPM records 10. Hi-fi's 11. Metal ice trays with levers 12. Blue flashbulb 13. Cork popguns 14. Wash tub wringers If you remembered 0-3 = You're still young If you remembered 3-6 = You are getting older If you remembered 7-10 = Don't tell your age If you remembered 11-14 = You're positively ancient! I must be 'positively ancient' but those memories are some of the best parts of my life.
