Good morning everyone, a hot 36 forecast for today.
That will be nice Chookie, is the grand-dog good with little ones?

Anything goes for Uni
« Reply #35191 on: April 09, 2018, 12:10:37 pm »
It is kind of you to allow the gardener’s sons to visit Chookie. I’m sure they will be thrilled to see where their Mum works.
Our new budgie is settling in well. He and the cockatiel chat to each other. He has been named Nic Nat after Nic Natinui who plays AFL football for the Eagles. He has dreadlocks, is extremely tall and from Fiji.
Budgie is grey with black striped.

It was beautiful here today, 24* and it even rained a bit.

Lovely little bird cookie, Nic Nat would be tickled to know a bird has been named after him.
The lad will want to come with his Mum every time now Chookie, it’s fun at your place.

I am trying my hardest to picture a budgie with dreadlocks and it just isn't working.

Love it Marina. I think it’s more the budgie’s stripes!

Lovely and cool here, 22*.

LOL. Very funny Marina.

It rained this morning but at least it's stopped this afternoon. Very muddy walking Chance :-))

Still very warm here. 31 today but not as hot as Adelaide. We are spending a lot of time watering.
A budgie  with dreadlocks?  Love it. There is a woman, who attends the Creswick swap , almost my age who has dreadlocks.

Good morning everyone.

Thermomix all over the news.  It is truely awful to have such bad reports for our lovely machine. Complete disregard by Grace for the laws governing reporting  faults and the harm that these can cause. To say nothing of ‘gag’ clause in any payout. I don’t think the fine was big enough.

I agree Chookie. At last it’s come to a head, hopefully the brand will continue to be sold and serviced here.

There will be a lot said about this on social media. We were one of the firsts to know I reckon. Don't forget there were the nay sayers who were caught out about the new model as well. In my opinion Grace is an odious person.

I am so disappointed in the TM5. I am so glad we  "oldies" experienced the best of our machines.

I agree that the fine Grace received was far too little, she will be able to take it out of petty cash.
I know a lass who bought a 31 in good faith when the 5 was being released soon.  She is still seething.  Sadly I only met her after she bought the 31.
Grace didn’t even have the gumption to appear on TV, her daughter did it for her. 😝😝😝😝😝😝
