Do I look like Popeye?

Bruce, my neighbour tells me I look dangerous! He reckons I look like Popeye! In actual fact ... I'm a real softy. You don't believe me? Anyway, that's rather a lovely red bottlebrush at Jarrahdale (November 2008) ... don't you think? Honestly ... I'm not dangerous ... I'm quite nice ... really ... and I love folk music!

We really shouldn't feed the possums because, in the middle of the night, they put on their hobnail boots and clatter around on the roof, terrorising us. I've heard that, in New Zealand, they hate possums but don't mind putting in their stews.
