Hi Ric. I’ve just come indoors from pottering around out back and now its time to sit down with a coffee while I recharge my batteries. I did manage to plant some Iris bulbs into a container that were given to me recently.  I haven’t had the chance before as its been misty rain and very cold.  I’m happy now thats done.  I was interested to learn that you had 3 dogs over the years.  Those little dachshunds are cute. We had a neighbour once who had one.   I think those birds would be sitting there in the tree waiting for you to put out those peanuts. I assume you are talking about the little birds.  I know cockatoos love nuts but they are large and noisy birds and I don’t know if you have those there.

Those foxes are very sneaky and smart and will go hunting at night. I think they tend to scavenge in the towns and cities at night for food. I haven’t seen one for a very long time.  Have a nice Friday Ric and a pleasant weekend.  Cheers ~Pat~

      Hi Rick - Hope you have a relaxing weekend- nothing strenuous :) xo Darlene

The week has been a blur. Got a lot done. We've had rain showers throughout the week. Just got done pulling weeds by the driveway, as they were growing over our solar lights. I've seen a few squirrels in the yard, especially today. They look very healthy. Hope your week has been good. 

Hi Sweetie

But for now .

I must pick some roses to make the house smell nice when you come to Tea.

   Hello - Crumpets remind me of English muffins in a way. I looked it up and they kinda look spongy in texture with the little holes in to absorb the butter, jelly or whatever you want to put on it. I see crumpets are sold in this country, but they are not as popular as English muffins are here. xo

Hi Ric. Sounds like your temps are becoming more comfortable. It’s always the same each year with summers and winters of extremes and moderations. I guess that’s nature. Won’t be long now and you will have leaves falling everywhere.  I had my little dog Muffy bathed and clipped yesterday. The lass did a good job as she left his coat long enough so that with a jacket on he does not get cold.  Not sure what I’ll have for supper tonight. I’ve got some left over cooked chicken that i’m sure I can make something of:). Have a pleasant Tuesday Ric. Cheers ~Pat~
