Capybaras? Who cares. But a duck ...

I want an Existential Crisis Duck Night light. My life will not be complete without it.

A bit of rain - finally! Watering the garden should have worked, but I did pack away the big hose from the front garden so maybe that jinxed it. Grateful for all we get though. It's just been so so dry - it's far past the usual time for the autumn break.

It's quite remarkable what gets brought home as 'souvenirs'. Guns etc. are fairly common, as are coins and badges etc. But ... there was a case about 15 years ago in country Victoria where a man was going through their ex-WW1 great-grandfather's papers and found the severed head of a german soldier in a box. This was successfully repatriated to the deceased's family, but WTF!

The War Museum in Canberra might like those. Or the Mitchell Library.

Hmm, I'd still look into bike baskets rather than a rack. Wouldn't things slide off the shelves???? Just wondering ...

Thanks chef!

Riiiight. Overheated angry rabbits engage!

ALL the chocolate bunnies please, and some mylanta.

I have something like the green cart in the pic for my garden. Shovels & rakes and implements of destruction go horizontally/longitudinally resting inside 2 x 15 cm sections of plastic sewer piping fastened to the bottom of the long edge at each of the corners and I just insert the handles in the tubes. Holds 3 implements easily as most of mine are long handle type and don't have a big plastic 'handle'. Works well as long as you remember to keep the cart oriented properly when going down steep slopes so they don't slide right out. An el cheapo hook-on bike basket on the back section holds secateurs, gloves & packets of stuff, and is easy to remove for storage. Inside is completely clear for better fitting bags/tubs for prunings, autumn leaves and lawn clippings etc. Easier to lift them out too as I find tubs easier to manage than bags if I'm going to empty them into the compost. I do harvest autumn leaves from street trees for mulch and compost, and this set up is very effective for that. The rack imo is overkill and not really needed. But you do you.

Dunno. Only ever bothered with the original.

Full immersion baptism is a thing. Mostly for adults converting. Refer St John the Baptist. Rinse is the same only different. Refer vegetables and washing machines. Then there's the tricky question of the mikveh.

Beautiful.

Have you seen the fillum of it? This is one of the very few movies I've ever watched through to the very end. They even got the horses right.

Is the inside of the abalone all shiny and nacreous? I love them when they're fresh enough to have all the lovely bluey-greeny-pinky nacre intact.

A very large glass of wine and another shittonne of whine. I do not like northerly winds.

On the good side, will be having a skype chat with both my boys tomozz, so that is something to look forward to.

Pest species. Nature's way of keeping the rabbit plague under control the delicious way.

Did anyone else take a look at the sky and wonder if Sunday's promised rain was going to arrive a bit early? Rain on Sunday now at 90% chance.

Hush, don't tell the kids and they'll never know.
