Good morning - warm but windy in the Bay with rain threatening - but itÔÇÖs winter already so wonÔÇÖt complain .My veggies are doing well my purple snow peas are producing already and have survived two frosts in the pod - especially satisfying as I have grown everything from seed this time rather than seedlings .Will definitely grow freckles lettuce again
GJW we had a Cornish cat next door to us in Oz - she was a real character - we had a Manx and he was a clown but she definitely out shone him in the personality stakes - the cleverest cats we have ever had were Abysinians - you can train them like a dog to fetch and come to the whistle etc .We also had our share of moggies - one ginger girl my son found tied in a bag in a rubbish bin when he went to put his burger wrapping in - the litter were all dead except her - she was just a skeleton and we didnÔÇÖt think she would survive the night - she lived for 20 years - ended up with dementia and every pair of shoes that didnÔÇÖt have feet in she thought were to be used as a litter tray .Would love another cat but there are so many native birds around here from the reserve at the back itÔÇÖs probably not a good idea
My vacuum cleaner died in a spectacular fashion yesterday - I thought the end of the world had come - so much noise coming out of such a small motor as it went through itÔÇÖs death throws - it must be 15 years old - want another Miele but finding a shop with any in stock at a decent price is proving difficulty .It caused us a problem when we shifted back from Oz - I forgot to remove the bag and when our container got scanned it showed up as something suspicious
I find Ribbon Rose great for threads etc - they have fantastic specials and if you shop online they only charge $4
Not sure whatÔÇÖs on the agenda today - methinks not much
