http://www.wernercairns.com/2015/07/a-seedy-subject.html
Monday, July 20, 2015. A “Seedy” subject. I have always loved to eat nuts and seeds; they not only taste good, but are also nutritious. We used to have walnut trees. On our family farm and a hazelnut tree in our garden. Then we had sunflowers in our garden and we enjoyed eating the seeds and shared them with the birds. We also grew poppies, and I remember vividly the flowering poppy field – it was a sight to behold. They have a. To enlarge the advertisement below, just click on it. We hear a lot about th...

http://www.wernercairns.com/2015/08/the-onion-real-tear-jerker.html
Monday, August 3, 2015. The Onion - a real tear jerker. There is more to this vegetable than meets the eye. Whoever has cut an onion and shed a tear would have thought that they hold something special. Interestingly, onions, like garlic, belong to the lily family. Onions come in different varieties, such as white, brown or red. Red onions are milder in flavour than white or brown onions. Onions are a vegetable that would be present in almost every kitchen,. I love eating onions, and use them in variety o...

Werner's Cairns blog: March 2015
http://www.wernercairns.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 30, 2015. Australia has lost its lustre. This is not the Australia I came to 62 years ago, it has changed, but not for the better. What is worse, we have reached the point of no return. And, we have people in our midst who don’t integrate and assimilate into the Australia culture and conspire to impose their culture and Sharia law on us. Our food suppliers have been conned with the exorbitant Halal registration, and this is passed on to Australian consumers. We have a Governor General and t...

Tuesday, June 8, 2010. Will forever evoke pleasant memories of my youth and my paternal grandfather, an avid hobby gardener, from whom I learnt a lot about gardening. I remember vividly.

Grandfather's mounds were checked twice daily to see if an asparagus spear. Atted soil, and. When it did, was cut with. The va...

Saturday, July 11, 2015. OZ ain’t what it used to be! Here is another excellent poem by retired Brigadier George Mansford from Cairns. It portrays exactly how drastically our country has changed and, unfortunately, it will never be the same again. George is a True Blue Australian. Who loves this country, but is pained to see, like most of us, where we are heading. Most of us also love this country and would go through fire for it. And go to a previous post where I introduced George. - Werner. Film Stars ...

Werner's Cairns blog: Pauline Hanson, like always, makes a lot of sense.
http://www.wernercairns.com/2015/07/pauline-hanson-like-always-makes-lot-of.html
Friday, July 3, 2015. Pauline Hanson, like always, makes a lot of sense. What Pauline wrote below is spot on and is exactly my sentiment. If there was ever a woman in Australian history that was very unfairly treated, wrongfully prosecuted and jailed - it was Pauline Hanson. The treatment she got from our politicians with vested interests was totally and absolutely un-Australian. Pauline always had the courage to say what most Australians only dared to think. Aussie, if there ever was one. - Werner.
