Is there still time to get MrsGarrettM some Royce chocolates?

My yard looks like a fruit salad massacre happened. Damned coughatoos are feasting on our fruit trees and throwing fruit everywhere. The roof, lawn, driveway, street has fruit everywhere.

We have two bird baths where there is a definite order of which birds go first and last. The black and red coughatoos have now left our neighbours tree and it is now half a metre shorter and narrower.

Did anyone see or heard anything about this incident involving an alleged "aussie" bogan? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Bg5QLPkiZ8 Wouldn't it be easier to comply with the officers?

I think it's this guy: Australian man charged with offences including using criminal force against police officers at Changi Airport, Courts & Crime News & Top Stories - The Straits Times

I've got Golden Delicious Apples ripening on the tree and thankfully only a couple apples attacked. Saw a sugar glider in the fig tree but not many figs left. Fruit bats look they have retreated back to the parkland on the Yarra.

Once saw a flock of coughatoos demolish a almond tree in my street. Tree never recovered after that. Can understand why Farmers hate them.

Being the eternal footy optimists we have just booked flights for round 23 Fremantle Dockers game in Melbourne.

Always good to see a team's last game of the season

I am guessing you may have missed the last kick of today's game Flashback. It was a Goal after the siren for a Fremantle Dockers win.
Both WA teams are climbing up the AFL ladder this weekend.

Sadly no she missed out. And Changi seems to lack a Royce shop unless I'm mistaken.
Perhaps I can get her some next time, as a sweetener for my idea of taking a solo three week baseball watching tour of Japan.

Oops, think more than some chocolate may be required for that idea

A man's got to have hope. She wants to go to Athens on one of those Scoot cut price deals.

I said we should take separate holidays.

Managed to blow the fuse for the kitchen, laundry and bathroom tonight - it's an electrician's job unfortunately. Have managed to hook the fridge up on an extension cord but washing machine and dishwasher were mid cycle.

Am apprehensive that the hot water cylinder runs on the same line too.

Let's see if the optimism turns into a nightmare.

I think HWSs are 15 amp so should be a separate circuit.

Here's hoping! Especially as I have a rather important meeting first up tomorrow morning!
