Australia Day family outing - 1

Had a lovely 'normal' Australia Day visiting the family horses.



This is Dusty down at Pearcedale. We got her in 1997 for the younger daughter. They are both 35 years old and been together for 26 years! The older daughter got Elvis a TB who crossed the bridge a while ago.

Sprocket is spending Easter with us while his mum is off camping.

Sprocket - dew claw mishap!

While coming up the stairs got his legs in a tangle and broke off a dew claw when trying to apply brakes to stop sliding backwards a step or two.

Happy birthday Pixie -

  

She is 13 years old today

Fathers Day and not forgotten

Already using the gifts that ET gave me this morning.

Australia Day–visitors for BBQ

Those feet belong to visitors but Sprocket says not my problem this is my floor space.

Mothers gift for ET

Forgot all about the heated throw blanket yesterday at ALDI so went this afternoon to three stores – none! Looks like they never had them in store.

ET’s hearing is poor; she does have premium hearing aids but doesn't wear them at home.

The ulterior motive behind this purchase is that have to up with a very TV volume!

 

 

 

Mothers Day 2020

This photo from yesterday when we visited the folks at Springvale cemetery where ET did her usual thing with four bunches of flowers for both our mums.

Sadly the cemetery is being over run by Asians

To give you some idea I call this ‘Row 1992’; people put to rest Circa 1990.
From here on to the right there are no English letters or numbers to be seen!

Easter Sunday 2020

Easter Sunday and our traditional egg fights around the dining table. ET did her bit and they are ready where is everyone ???

Family BBQ this afternoon

Had a nice family BBQ this afternoon, dogs outnumbered humans :-)

Drone update

Hoping for lighter winds tomorrow to have another go at flying the drone that I got for my birthday. In the meantime was pottering in the workshop today and came across this old fashioned ladies cosmetic case.

Some months ago bought this cosmetic case from the Salvos for $3.25, figured it would be handy for something in the workshop.
