    How's Your Weather Today?

    We had 22C for our first day of Spring here at Mallacoota today. My morning started as it so often does down here sitting on the deck appreciating nature around us. Gael joined Bella and I later followed by breakfast cooked on the BBQ. “Women cant cook on a BBQ” I said, but guess what, she...

    Where’s Lancpudin?

    On Friday I had a talk to a carddiologist and his opinion is that according to tests there is no indication of heart or circulatory problems. He seemed to suggest it was a bit unusual for a bloke of my age (78) to be doing the hard work that I regularly do. Grin~ As you can imagine we...

    21C here today! I had to go up to the shed around 2AM as a wombat, a very active one, was tripping the sensor light every few minutes and flooding the place with light which was keeping me awake. I went up and turned the light off. The wind at that time was warm and gusty which I wasn’t...

    Where’s Lancpudin?

    Well no luck yet and I think I have a lot to learn about setting wire snares. After the war everyone here subsisted on Bunnies or fish and we frequently went foraging for mushrooms in season. I had rabbit in so many ways I struggle to think about eating them nowadays. However we have friends...

    Where’s Lancpudin?

    Did all kinds of stuff yesterday. Worked on the Ute, serviced chainsaws, charged batteries, sprayed weeds and finally set a snare (trap) over a new Rabbit hole on the fenceline. I’ll check the trap just in case I’ve caught something (roast bunny anybody?) first off, and then take a buggy full...

    We are going to a funeral this morning sadly. Ian Haggar was 94 and lived in this area all of those years, being born here. He was our last remaining link to a rich history that saw this small hamlet as a stop on the way the Gold fields in the ranges behind us. A settlement developed and when...

    I wandered around in my buggy yesterday searching for outbreaks of Scotch Thistle and found plenty of them! Searching though our bush was lovely with pools of sunlight dappling the floor! With loads of branches down I had to be sure that none of the sticks I was stepping over wiggled~ I have...
