We think we have beaten the bugs, there are still a couple coming out now and then but a swat fixes them and they are now becoming fewer.
We found out today why we had so much trouble getting information about several bushwalks in the area, especially ones up to lookouts. It […]

I have been thinking that I may not put some items on the web site and only store them in my memoirs as some things I had considered may not be of interest, but what is the point of writing these words if they are not available for all to read. […]

Slight change of our plans already: We went for a drive today to Bright, about 100 km south of Albury. Matt’s (son-in-law) parents went there so Mark (Matt’s dad) could do some panning for gold, so we went as well so we could meet them and have a look at Bright […]

A little excitement today, for Piper the Cockatiel anyway, with Linda catching another Cockatiel. It was hanging around the van his morning talking to Piper so Linda thought she would see if she could catch it. Obviously being tame it came down to feed when Linda took piper, in cage, outside.

Yes, we are still in Melbourne, and not a great deal to report.
We did go to Healesville Sanctuary today for a look, as we had intended to while here, and we had to go today as the ticket we had purchased last year was due to expire. It was a pleasant […]
