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.

Fathers Day and not forgotten

Already using the gifts that ET gave me this morning.

Bedroom gathering

ET was in the bedroom by herself sorting some jewellery - but not for long.

Sprocket on the bed with Pixie and Holly.

Welcome home after shopping - 1

Sprocket (visitor) and our Holly quite excited that I’m back home from shopping.

Meadowbrook Mansion - K9 visitor

Sprocket - who belongs to our younger daughter has just arrived to stay at Meadowbrook Mansion until next Sunday while his mum is off on a camping trip.

His mum only just left and he is already a nuisance

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!

Say hello to Sprocket

He is helping his owner (our younger daughter) to cope with self isolation...

Al's Workshop update

Been another busy day but took time off this afternoon to absorb sunshine with ET and the doggies and the chooks along with a bit of pruning.

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 ???

After successfully fitting himself into Pixie's basket this morning (see that post) he's back again tonight for a proper sleep session. This hound often sleeps with his eyes open, right now he's asleep in a dream with sound effects - lol
