I said animals, like 90% of all Australia's wildlife is out there to kill humans I think just being an Australian is a real life survival experience

Hey Mister T  classes are going well. I had a long weekend, came back to the apartment this afternoon and I'll have a week of holiday starting Friday evening

 

Digging Drew out of that pile of glitter is like looking for a tiny needle in a ball of hay  good thing is it's giving us all some nuke free time

It takes him a while to climb out because of those short little legs of his.

Some sadly deranged folks think fairies are bugs ... they don't know our Miss Clo.

Hi gang!

It's a beautiful day here in Picardie. The sun is shining bright with 12°C. Currently cuddling with Looping after having lunch and doing my nails.

Wishing you all a nice day

Hi Dugh! How are you today?  I do hope the weather and your migraine have improved.

Bonjour B  what are you up to those days?

Bins are on Mondays here, one of the neighbor is in charge of putting the big collective bins on the sidewalk. 

Mostly chilling  and writing job applications

Hi Bucket! How are things down under?  Is your dad back home?  I do hope all the fires are out by now.  I also hope things are beginning to cool down there.  

Dad is back home  

Two out of three fires are out  

It has been low 30s here the last few days, very nice  

Back to 40C tomorrow  

I have booked lunch on Sunday with friends from work  

The restaurant has its own huge vegetable garden. They only provide a sample menu because it depends on what’s in season.

Hi Terry. The weather is much better, a bit cool but dry and sunny. I went for my usual early morning walk and encountered 6 pups that all wanted to say hello and get ear scritchies. Mum and I just returned from the grocery shopping plus a stop at the pharmacy. So a good start to the day but the sensation of swelling and throbbing that precedes a migraine has begun so I'm resting for a bit in hopes it eases. While it may not seem so things are better than the last few days. I didn't wake with a headache and had a brief reprieve so I count this as a return to more normal. Thanks for asking. How is Aod, not over doing his return to normal I hope.

I sounds like things are improving, except the 40C tomorrow.  Good luck with the job apps.  I hated writing those things.  The restaurant sounds like it focuses on using fresh over a huge menu.  I like that concept.  The nice thing about food in Thailand is that the focus is also on fresh.

Ask Albert about the Sundew family of flowers. Covered in glistening droplets capturing the light and looking so pretty…

except the glistening droplets are actually digestive fluids and slowly dissolve the insects caught in the trap. Hey we have very poor soils and a plant has to do what a plant has to do to get some nutrients.

Sounds like you got some good loving from the pups.  Also, you sure did a lot more than I did today.  Get that rest and relax so the migraine doesn't have a chance to get worse.  Aod is doing the same as you are to recuperate.  The only thing he is doing now is eating, watching some TV and sleeping a good 12+ hours a day.  Say Hi to Mum for us!

While Drew plays games with glitter nukes, we have our own biological warfare going on. The group of plants known as Poisons are naturally full of 1080, a deadly toxin. There a couple of nature reserves that are surrounded by sheep corpses, the plants are so deadly that the sheep nibble on the leaves and die. Not good for people either. Pretty members of the pea family but definitely not for eating.

Thai, Vietnamese, a lot of the SE Asian foods have the emphasis on fresh. It’s great we get to enjoy it here too

[Bucket1]

Definitely time for bed 

Clo, I will see if I have any other deadly plant stories for you. Everything is out to get you here
