The orchids arrived from Chris, Jade & Shannan.

Don’t they look amazing!

Unusual book!

Just finished this novel (on loan from Sam). Thoroughly enjoyed the many chuckles, another good read.

Sky Watch Friday #43

As the sun sets in the West.......

Help

Does anyone know what year this may have been taken? It has Weymouth in the corner and is in the form of a postcard (British Made).

The Wednesday What's It

Found: a little black hole in the garden, what is it? Miniature mole? Industrious spider? Crab escaped from the beach? Wasp or Bee? Anyone know?

Talking of bees, I have just read ‘The Secret Life of Bees’ by Sue Monk Kidd – best book I’ve read in a long time, probably since ‘Secret River’ by Kate Grenville.

Today's Flowers #38

This is a Bougainvillea growing on the other side of my road.

How many men does it take to revamp a concrete ramp? 4 at one end & 3 at the other. At LAST the council has decided to make the ramp at Yanchep Lagoon actually work! Lets hope they all did a good job!

Mellow Yellow Monday

I know it’s more of an orange color but couldn’t resist taking a photo.

Getting to greener pastures

“What have they done to our land?”

“Let’s get out of this waste ground.”

“Don’t cross the road, there are cars coming!”

“Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear, soon there will be nowhere for us to go.”

New Oz stamps....

...waiting to be sent all over the world

Sky Watch Friday #41

Postcard of Nebraska skies sent to me by Rebecca.

Gone to seed!

My garlic chives have gone to seed.

The ‘Wednesday What’s It’

Instead of the ‘Thursday What’s It’ I decided the ‘Wednesday What’s It’ sounds better. A photo of something a bit different, wacky or weird! Meet ‘Thung’ featured in a postcard I had made. ‘Thung’ lives at Underwood, a mythological place near Nether Whittle.

Invasion….

..... by two dozen pink & grey Galahs who found the bit of Dove feeding ground. My so called ‘garden’ in the background!

The Thursday What’s it.

This gorgeous bit of ‘stained glass’ is the broken windscreen of a dumped car left too long in the sunshine. Just another unusual photo!

Fresh Bread

Homemade multigrain bread with sesame & poppy seed (it may look like mould but I can assure you it isn’t!)

Butterfly cards

LupusCrossing - Butterflies are crossing the world and all you have to do is to send a butterfly postcard (butterflies are the Lupus symbol) to the address below to express your support towards Lupus patients on this special day. The goal is to bring worldwide awareness to this problem while at the same time bring smiles to those affected by the disease. You can write on the postcard whatever you want, and you can ask questions about Lupus too.

All received postcards will reach the hands of Lupus patients. A photo of the postcards received will appear on their website. Moreover, the German Lupus Association plans to design a roll-up display out of these cards that will be shown throughout the 80 regional groups.

Ready to spark some smiles? Then grab a postcard with a butterfly and send it to:

Simone Müller-Pretis
Secretary to German Lupus Association
Weg zum Sportplatz 4
97076 Würzburg
Germany

Not a very Mellow Yellow Monday

A ‘Messy Monday’ picking up rubbish. The usual cans, bottles, plastic, ice-cream wrappers etc but what I did worry about was the ‘Powergel Buster’ pack with ‘DANGER EXPLOSIVE’ written on it! Anyone have any idea what this might be used for also where has it come from?

Found this little red & black beastie near my compost bin along with others, wonder if it’s dangerous.
