Good morning everyone.  Perfect weather in Adelaide all week too Chookie.
Not surprised you have found extra work for the cabinet maker LOL.
Enjoy your day.

Obbie, we know how you feel. Several months ago we tried to get a tree person to trim some large branches from our trees. All too busy clearing up storm damage. Today, a tree loppers knocked on our door to see if we wanted any work done. He will start tomorrow. The Cabinet maker, we waited 6 months for him.
Also, tomorrow a roof plumber will clean out our spouts and will build a roof over the chook shed and yard.
Not game to say, no not now.
When I told the tree men I would do morning tea and lunch for them, they looked at me like I was a strange creature from outer space.

So they hadn't heard about you yet Chookie LOL.  You sounds as if you are keeping a lot of men in work at the moment.

It probably seems strange to them Chookie that someone would be so nice.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

I think some tradespeople aren't even offered a cup of tea. So sad when this happens.

Hi friends,
It was sunny but the clouds have now come over and making it a grey afternoon.

Good morning everyone.

Hi friends.
After a particularly dry spell we have rain showers this morning. A good walk with Chance along the footpaths and fields. Met Todd and his owner.

Morning all.
CC, how does your weather compare with London? We see London weather each night on the News.
Obbie, very handy if you can do some yourselves.
DD , GC, 1 dog and 3 old Silky hens moving in with us today.

Good morning everyone.
You'll be in your element having the family there Chookie, you can cook until your heart is content and then some.
Is it where you live that makes it so hard to find a tiler Robyn?

Hi friends.
It's a bit colder where we live Chookie compared with London temperatures.

Raining here this morning. Looking out of the window it looks as though it might thunder. A good walk with Chance.I took this photo of this lovely Rhododendron that we walked pass on a footpath.
